Because of this photo, I'm trawling through Steve's Flickrstream circa 2007/08... you're right, SO MANY good memories :)

Ooh, nice with the Disqus tweeting. :)

I feel the same way. I think that's why I'm between laughter and a bit of sadness. Knowing that what unites us is a frame of reference, but knowing that that frame of reference comes at a cultural cost that's (usually) at the detriment of non-American culture.

But yeah, I think I may have to go down to Venice soon. Your suggestion may be an interesting project actually. :)

Also, what is up with the slaps at the 1 minute mark? Haha!

Sometimes I feel like we're all living in a real-life sequel to Fahrenheit 451.

I should say - I saw the post about the place, not the actual place itself. :)

LOL! I saw this place last night and asked Steve if he wanted to check it out. Haha! You are spot on. :)

Ghosts I can handle, it's the living that scare me. :) Besides, who's going to fuck with the girl with the sword?

Kitty saw a ghost. Just kidding! No, really... there's a ghost in your apartment. Just kidding! :) He peered into the 11th dimension. It's all good.

You do have the South Bronx badass swagger though. JK.

Speaking of storytelling and Africa, have you seen Chris Abani's presentation at TED? It's one of my favorites ...

(And he writes frequently about Los Angeles ...)

Seriously! Though, the memory is so much more awesome because he didn't! LOL

I thought about that too. Kinda makes me remember all the times I used to see the South Bronx painted in a horrible light. It's always funny (well not always) seeing people's expression when I tell them where I'm from - as if I should have multiple scars, a horrid past, or a drug problem of some sort. So, yes, definitely know what you mean.

Hmm, I guess there's an interesting question here: When it comes to writers painting fictional worlds in real-world settings, should they have creative carte blanche, or should there be a sort of moral compass/code of awareness?

Overall, I do believe there should be a balance in storytelling (which is just as important as journalism, one could argue)... I have to admit before I went to Joburg the media had me pretty scared of the place. And it was one of the most amazing places I've ever visited. :)

I know, I almost wish they had a director's commentary to this. Would like to hear them talk about how they shot it. Also, what the budget was...
