(linda had brought my m3 with her, but i didn't have any film, so i was living in jewelry fashion until chuck gave me a roll of tri-x.) outside of the Artists House we ran into and joined up with josh, who runs the gasheart art-mailing list, stopped and picked up some champaign and eventually we took over a pizza parlor, picked up some skaters for the entourage and went off to Space 1026 where they were having the flip book art show -- we looked at a bunch of clever flip books (lots of them made from 1 hour photos taped together with duct tape (seems you need probably about 70 photos to make a decent flip book). some were very clever. by the end of the evening the models had mostly become festive, the skaters had disbursed into the big crowd and some sort of party broke out at Space 1026 when a bunch of NY DJ's were installed (they used to have a half pipe at 1026, but a magazine article taped to the wall said they removed it when they decided to become a "serious" gallery). we lost chuck to scanning obligations around midnight, and from there, everything gets hazy, but we managed to get home with all of our leicas and only little things were broken. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
