To Darrin Hudson: DIY DR. STRANGELOVE.

About Me

Name: jeffstaple

Location: New York, New York, United States

I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

DIY DR. STRANGELOVE.

Kristan Horton is a Canadian multi media artist.
In his latest project, "Dr. Strangelove Dr. Strangelove", Horton undertook the massive task of photographing every still (approximately 350) from the 1964 Kubrick classic. He then set about arranging in sculpture, miniature recreations of every scene using mundane household objects like peanut butter jars, cigarette butts, cutlery and duct tape. The resulting photographs are then displayed beside the original stills. The results are remarkable and sometimes hilarious.
Definitely a book worth adding to your collection.
Kristan Horton氏はカナダのマルチメディア・アーティストです。
彼の最新作、「Dr. Strangelove Dr. Strangelove」では、1964年Kubrick作の映画の静止画（約350枚）の写真を撮る膨大なプロジェクトを実行しました。彼は次に、ビーナッツバターのビン、タバコの吸殻、フォークや粘着テープなどの日常品を使い、その静止画のシーンを再現したのです。その写真はオリジナルの静止画のとなり合わせになっています。その表現力はすばらしく、時々ユーモラスでもあります。本棚に追加する価値のある本です。
