my invitation was lost in the mail

If your a fan of Rock and Roll and photography then head over to What's the Jackanory where he has posted a video of legend Jim Marshall speaking about his photographs. Hosted by Platon in his studio in New York.

Damn!! I wish I lived in New York sometimes. There's always something fantastic going on. Not that I would've received an invite to this exclusive shin dig but still. For example, I read today that MOMA is showing a collection of picture postcards that Walker Evans had collected throughout his life (along with some of his photographs). Evans was apparently an avid collector of many things. The article mentions his fondness for signs and hints that he may have even *taken* some after photographing them. I love it.
