A Year in New York from Andrew Clancy on Vimeo.
Freelance cameraman Andrew Clancy started filming his life in New York City and just kept going. Eventually he stopped, and when he did he sat down and edited this amazing 4-minute short film – A Year in New York.
Posted In see itLiving in New York I’d grab my Canon 7D, or S95, and shoot footage of what was going on around me. It seemed like a never ending project and you could stay filming life in New York for a long time.
Eventually I put the camera down and started to edit. Here’s the end result, it’s a bit rough and ready but that’s life in the Big Apple I guess.
Turn up the volume or put your in earphones for the beautiful song We Don’t Eat by Irishman James Vincent McMorrow.
Ever wonder how someone keeps a large quantity of links in order? Well, if you’re me and they’re five years worth of recipes you amass a 150 page single-spaced word processing document full and make your life a living hell. I used to share more foodie things here than I do now, but updating the file has become too much and I didn’t want to just toss the lot of them. So this weekend I started a massive undertaking – adding each and every one to my Food and Cocktail board on Pinterest. (I’m hoping to finish within the month, so take this as your warning either to follow or unfollow that particular board.) I hope you all find at least one recipe to enjoy!

Here it is, my Christmas tree! Well, just for this year that is. I’m living bare bones in my sublet and didn’t even think I’d have one at all until I came across a free printable. He’s about four feet tall and pretty naked, but I’m going to figure out a way to add a little pizzazz. You can get your own right here!

Photography has always been one of my favorite art forms, one big reason being that it’s so easily accessible to just about everyone. I’ve been lucky enough to create my own little collection of cameras over the past twelve years or so, but one that was missing was a Diana. A Diana shoots lomography-style photos, heavy on color and saturation. I’ve been playing around with a white Diana Mini for the past month or so, and having a blast. And guess what? You’ve got a chance to win one of your own from Lomography!

I wouldn’t mind a mismatched set of these Rothko tumblers, the individual colors would help you remember which glass is yours. And even if you picked up the wrong one you probably wouldn’t care, they’re too easy on the eyes.
