Bullet: The Genesis

I met Bullet Shih in the summer of 2002, we were both part of the same ragtag Bohemian circle of friends, he the painter, me the writer. I had no way to know that 23 years later, I'd be directing a film about him.

Az Elfojtott Könnyek Szobra, recently restored after it was vandalized, no doubt by some drunk ne'er-do-wells.

Two Dreams

A tumble through ants, poison flowers, and the dark stone steps of Budapest. Was it memory, dream, or just Ludwidge’s tea pulling me down into shadows?

Drinking a Beer

I just listened to a Miles Davis album I'd never heard of. Ascenseur pour L'echafaud. Didn't know he was French. Soundtrack. Looked it up. Title means Elevator for the Scaffolding.

On Landscape, or The Satire of Ansel Adams

I can't help but think of poor Ansel Adams, the impotence of his work. How can you appreciate the mastery without lamenting the shortcoming of the medium? Maybe that's the point. Maybe he was a satirist, after all.
