the loft nyc...

so i'm back at my desk listening to holy ghost drifting off to sunday night when i managed to finally get to the musical event of the year...david mancuso's 40th anniversary of the loft. There's too much to say about the evening...i got there at 6 which felt late...the pure love of music and dance was actually quite exhausting as you were really at the mercy of the party...like the excitement you got as a kid at christmas, but to be in a room of people who were all there for a single purpose, to know you were sharing something never to be repeated that formed part of music as we know it today was priceless...and thanks to my dancing partners hen,vicki and lara and clare we made the night an exhausting celebration...here's some highlights but i can only urge to to get there if you are ever lucky enough to get invited...thankyou simon and david...

turning it up...



fanning the fire...



keeping the flames lapping...



the end of night...

new things to covet part 1

in auckland for the semipermanent conference and am so bowled over by the energy and straight up niceness of the place...we even got some rain to make us feel well at home...the last few days have officially been a prescription jet lag drift but have managed to not only fall in love with a print but actually buy it from james jean's new show here...

a proper report shall ensue but probably after me and harry's tiki tour embarking from wellington on monday...

im twittering (finally) for the studio here...
