They are all up with titles, tags and captions. Flickr uploader went wonky and I had to redo an hour of work - doh! I'm too over the computer and too exhausted to write any more than this.

Look here and see the story.

EPIC trip!

Over but not out.

Rounding The Horn of Manhattan

Hello from Long Island City, NY.

We rounded the, err, Horn or Manhattan late last week, and aside from the curiosity of New York City's Aquatic Finest, it's all gone smoothly.

Seeing the New York City skyline drifting by from the deck of the steamboat's been a trip in and of itself, especially given the historical significance of steam power on the Hudson and the sheer West Coast / East Coast cognitive dissonance ("Oh sh*t that's the Brooklyn Bridge!").

The Deitch Gallery version/installation of The Swimming Cities of Switchback Sea opened with great fanfare last Sunday. Swoon's creativity and everyone's hard work are on display. We were pleasantly surprised by how much the actual boats and their energy enhanced the indoor version of the show and vice versa, to create a more moving whole from pretty great parts.
