A mesmerizing new video and photo series by noted director and current UCSD
lecturer, Wolfgang Hastert, 'Tom is Your Friend' explores ideas of community
and communication vis-a-vis social networking sites. The works make a
profound and bitter-sweet comment on "friending in cyberspace" as they
portray a young generation that wants to hook up but gets caught up in
romantic anxiety.

On Saturday I went to the ballet studios and shot the choreography of Summer Jones. She's been working with Monica Pelfrey on a solo piece entitled, "Said Alone". I took about 400 images in one hour, some of them with my long lens, a wide angle, and pinhole. Though i have a complete set of these images, I thought this one was most lovely. Digital Pinhole evokes that kind of elusive beauty, like holding in one's breath and letting it out slowly - the way it calms you down. i feel like these images calm me.
