WHO THE FUCK IS NORMAN YEUNG? | |
Letter to Vincent - August 7, 2006 (excerpts) | |
Guy, thanks for your e-mail. It was actually super inspiring and a flood of ideas came to me immediately after reading it.
I'm armed with my digital stills camera and a Mini DV camera (not my expensive one). I was going to bring my 35mm SLR and Super 8,
but my bag was already full. Next time I come I'm gonna bring one bag with nothing but media equipment and cameras etc. I was already working on some projects involving stills and audio, but you gave me the idea to document my trip -- to make something more personal. ... I came to New York because of recent major disappointments ... I don't want to get into it because I haven't resolved them for myself yet, but I kind of ran away to New York to clear my head. ... I think I wrote too much so I wanna leave you with an image that I'm sure you'll appreciate: 6.00PM sunshine on a Saturday. I was walking down 9th St. at Ave. A and I stopped in front of Giant Robot. I looked up and saw a cute girl poking her body out of her third-storey window to adjust the window box of flowers on her fire escape. Her cat pranced about on the sill. The curtain flapped in the breeze. |
