Clocked up a third decade of existence yesterday & kicked off
festivities with a few drinks at B Bar. The main event is this weekend
when family & friends will come to dine in Kingstonia, hopefully
following some fireworks fun.

I picked up at the International Center
of Photography last week. It had nothing to do with the whiskey, I
swear.
In it's 3rd year of existence, Chuck Raw and his daughter Saniyah Hagans who hosted Rawchella, offered up a bevy of mostly men and a young woman who took to the stage, grabbing a mic, singing to prerecorded music, and dancing around on the stage, all the while backed up by two extraordinary DJ's. LockedIN Magazine photographer Rick "Beetle" Bailey of #bbphotographer58 and My4one2 was able to hang out with these unique musicians and bring you some of the best pics of the event. #StayActive #RuLockedIN #LockedINMagazine #GetLockedIN
Fred Smith - (American - born 1987)
Fred Smith: From This Disposition
Fred Smith (b. 1987) is a human navigating their day to day existence through the act of making drawings, paintings, and sculptural objects. Their work is developed with a sense of subversive irony, exploring societal norms and situations that seem off or odd.
By bending physicality and destabilizing reality, Fred Smith’s uncanny creations prompt us to ask complex questions about our surroundings and our imagination. The artist has a similar mission in mind while creating the work, stating that he’s “simply asking questions that I don’t know how to ask with words.” Molding form and spaces into open-ended queries, Smith delivers us to a site where “the world is a stage.”
The improvisational quality imbued throughout his compositions nods at Surrealism—a movement developed in post-war Paris that explored the unconscious, hidden psychological tensions, and dream states. Creative abilities permeated Smith’s immediate family, and he has made drawings since his youth. His practice deepened the summer after eighth grade, he drew constantly from National Geographic and skateboard magazines after an ACL tear forced him to direct his active energy into visual expression. More recently, Smith’s sobriety—he stopped drinking and smoking marijuana in 2020—has strengthened his vigor to make paintings; he observes that “the difference is definitely in the work.” Smith swiftly and successfully cuts through what’s “known” and approaches the absurd as a place to survey the destabilization of certain structures and systems—an illuminated unreality. It is through this choose-your-own-adventure template that we can conceive of new worlds.

सिनेमा देखने वाले पर्दे पर के दृष्य को देख के उसमे तन्मयाकार हो कर हम खुश या दुःखी हो जाते है। उसी तरह यह जीवन भी एक ड्रामा है, सच नहीं है।

People can have differences due to status, appearances, physical abilities, and even geographical boundaries but still they are all human beings & they co-exist with each other.
