I’ve decided this week is going to be cool fashion photo week in lieu of the millions of photos I’ve uploaded in the last 12 months… I’ve found a better way to upload photos but I’m really hoping this bug sorts itself out. Server issues. It’s all greek to me. I’m still anticipating my super cool Paper One Year project but I can safely say it’s going to take a bit longer in light of recent events. I first peeped the stuff of Pam Reed + Matt Rader over at my friend Ryan’s site, Hop on the Spiral, Bitch. His site is super fresh with some great content. Also, check out Reed + Rader.
Dearly Beloved, ironically foreseen by me as mentioned in the last post, the internet (or a decent subsection) has forever disappeared and taken all of my website’s content with it. This couldn’t come at a more opportune time. With that being said, we are not going to panic. I am patiently waiting for my content to either reappear, or this means an entirely new direction for See Like Me. My image hosting website has decided to take a little vacation, so you will obviously notice all of the gorgeous photos that once graced my website are now replaced by equally breathtaking blue question marks. Real cool. If you’re not a regular visitor, than I’m sorry that this blog is lackluster, but hopefully in time we’ll be back to normal and that this hasn’t done too much damage. Needless to say, I’ve changed hosting sites, and hopefully this problem will never happen again.
It has been exactly one year since the invention of See Like Me online. I’ve been dedicating my time for 365 days (give or take a few). And for what? I’ve decided I need something to show for all my hard work. Therefore, I’ve decided to undertake a bit of a project. I need something physical that I can hold on to once the internet blows up (and who knows when that could be?!). I am taking See Like Me to paper.
I am going to create a prototype magazine that will be available online, as well as printed for my own safekeeping. Depending on printing costs I may distribute it around Vancouver, Canada if budget allows (if you want to advertise, contact me).
The CONTRIBUTORS to See Like Me’s Rare Issue are subject to change due to time constraints and schedules. This has been a long time coming and I’m incredibly excited about this announcement. Without further ado, I present the elite group of individuals whose work has made the Rare Issue possible:
I am so close from releasing this into the wild. Only with your help will it be a success! Keep watching for more information (especially twitter!) And if you’re feeling nostalgic, check out one of my first posts ever. Thank you for keeping me afloat 320 posts later.
Tom Ford is a man to be admired. His campaigns are provocative. His design is immaculate. And his soon to be released feature film should be something to see. A Single Man is about a gay man coping with the loss of his dead gay partner. Well Tom Ford is gay, so this could potentially be going in a very good direction. He is probably the king of the sexual advertisement. Just another example of nudity in fashion.
Tom Ford graduated from Parsons School of Design with a degree in architecture. Did some stuff with Chloé in Paris before taking over / turning around Gucci before launching his own brand. That’s success.
I believed they named her Behati (Be-HOT-ty) for a reason. Not to harp on the creativity of her poses, but they do seem a little repetitive, don’t they? Obviously, poses come and go like garments, but these just look a bit lazy. I feel sleepy just looking at these pictures. Which reminds me I have to set my clock back an hour so I get an extra hour of sleep. Keep watching for the list of contributors who will be contributing to my Rare issue / Paper One Year. It’s so close to being complete and it will blow you out of the water. If your in water.
