almost a year ago, I took a cool test which really got a finger on how I really am (after all, the test is eleven-page long).

today, I thought it was time to check whether this was still true or not. had my personnality changed over the past - and eventful - year?
not so much, apparently.

I’m still an attentive creator.

polaroids make me happy. always have and always will. so far, it’s all old news. but this project I’m working on at the moment makes me fall in love with polaroid pictures all over again.

I can’t say more for the moment; but it involves: a polaroid camera, the sky, a notebook and a stamp. one hundred days. and lots of love.
I so can’t wait for it to come together.

secondly, I’ve just received Jen’s beautiful For the love of light book. every page of it is gorgeous and reflects how I feel about polaroids.

have a lovely week end.

10 x 15 cm - paper, recycled cardboard and enveloppes

when I came across PoIC last monday, I couldn’t help but fall in love with the concept. a pile of index cards as a paper pda.
I knew I was going to give it a go. and I did. the following day, a pattern I had made got printed, cardboard was cut, so were enveloppes. a couple of sticks of glue later, I had my pocket folder.

now, I really have the feeling that PoIC is a form of fetishism. by documenting my life on those cards, I make them carry a special meaning. they obviously become pieces of me; seconds of my own life.

I have this fascination for the ligature often used between s and t; so I worked around that and this is what I came up with.

I have the coolest friends ever. D. always emails me a selection of songs his current playlist plays; most of the time, I like them too.

today he sent me the boy by the smashing pumpkins - which I usually don’t fancy that much, but damn, he was right, this is a cool song. and a live of the old favourite drain you by nirvana.
it always amazes me how certain songs reminds you of pieces of your own life because you used to listened to them at that exact time. anyway, this song. that’s what keeps me going as I’m working on a very exciting project.

fetishism, only very slightly stretched.
this concept originated from a simple fact. as I was typing my thesis, I was stroke by how neatly the folders in the cabinets surrounding my desk are arranged.
thousands of them, filed by colour and theme. like a collection of fetishes.

longest week end of the year. lazily spent at my grand-parent’s house. endless bike rides across the fields and along the beach coast. clafoutis making. book reading. and olympic games watching.
I’m glad to be back, but wish it could have lasted just a little longer.

I tried to tweak my pictures to give them a slight film look and feel. not sure I got it right, but I happen to like it.

this is probably one of the things I want the most right now. along with a printer and an ice-cream machine.
