"From row 16 backward / the prices are USD 60 / and it is advised / to bring binoculars / to see the pianist strike / the chords. // It should be memorized / that Strawinski Igor, / once played the piano / though only three notes."
Second view:
"These words were found on a have digested sheet of paper: 'In a forlorn barnyard / I found some conserved wooden boards / that by adjustment with my jigsaw / delivered dozens of identical elements. // By repetitive fixing on iron threads / these small bats / via parts of felt / can hit other woven metal threads.
The whole assemblage / I feel can be used to play minimal musix. Preliminary name is a pianola'.
With some difficulty, I think the signature reads Carl Bechstein"

Experimenting with textures. This is a 2-layer overlay. I have to say it's not really my style so much with the music notes. (c) 2013

This is the mall's food court. Note the name - Picnic on the River; it has somewhat of an aquatic theme going on, which will be better shown in later photos.

Forest Fair Mall opened in 1989 with upscale anchors that included Bonwit Teller, B. Altman, Parisian, and Sakowitz. It also included Bigg's and Elder-Beerman as anchor stores. It consisted of 1.5 million square feet; the third largest mall in the US at the time. By the mid 1990s, all of the high-end stores left the mall (B. Altman and Sakowitz ended up going out of business altogether). By the time 2008 rolled around, ALL of the original anchors had closed.
Through the years, the mall had a handful of owners and was renamed at least 3 times over the years. It was known as Forest Fair Mall until 2004 when the Mills Corporation reopened it as Cincinnati Mills Mall after a $70 million renovation project which booted all of the inline stores and kept the theaters and what anchors had remained. Simon Malls acquired the Mills malls in 2007; in 2009 the mall was sold again and was renamed Cincinnati Mall, as the mills name didn't transfer with the sale. The mall's fourth name, Forest Fair Village, was announced in 2013, but that name appears nowhere on the building.
It could be argued that this mall should never have been built, as two other well-established malls (Northgate and Tri-County) are within 15 minutes of this mall and a third (Kenwood Towne Center) isn't too far away. Added to that is the fact that the blue-collar communities of Forest Park and Fairfield, where the mall is situated, were not able to support the high-end retail this mall originally featured. Finally, the exit where this mall is located did not develop the supporting retail as the aforementioned areas did.
At this point, I can count about 5 inline storefronts and three anchors that are open, plus one food court establishment. All of the rest of the shops show various degrees of closure - some have their gates pulled down, some have the gates pulled with plastic or tarp covering them and the store windows, and some have even had their entrances drywalled off.
Hey there friends and fellow photographers and writers,
I just wanted to be in touch to let you know I have a new photo book, published just last week in Tokyo by Neutral Colors.
It's called Middle Life Notes, and it comprises 26 images with 12 waka poems and an essay, about how I came to be me, here, now, at this point in my life. It's a bit more personal than Sunlanders, as the poems and images alike reveal somewhat autobiographical elements of my life. The images are all of Japan, shot with a Diana f+ and were made into darkroom color prints before being scanned. The waka (which are similar to haiku, but have a 5/7/5/7/7 scheme) were printed with a Risograph. Both the waka and the essay include Japanese translations.
It was published by Neutral Colors, by an editor who has an enormous number of contacts in Tokyo, but among all the talented photographers he could have chosen to launch his new line, it was my honor to be his first selection. I really am happy with the way the book turned out and I hope to share it with you.
The published edition is 333 copies, and I will be personally sell 111 of them. So before announcing on Instagram and Twitter I wanted to reach out to you first. It costs just ¥3200 with a small postage handling fee (¥250 in Japan to ¥500 further abroad), which is $30, with a $2-$5 post fee. I'll make almost no profit on sales-- making books is a labor of love, and I am in love!
If you are keen, I'd be happy to mail out a signed copy once I hear back from you. Please send me a DM and let me know your physical address. For those of you who bought Sunlanders, and will buy this new book, I am so grateful for your support.
This is dedicated to my friend BossBob50. Check out his CD cover set: www.flickr.com/photos/bossbob50/sets/72157607782882854/

I suppose this could be the cover of a Blue Note issue, one of those classic jazz albums produced by the creative people at Blue Note Records back in the hard bop days. At least that's what it reminded me of when I was getting into this. Perhaps something by their main tenor man Hank Mobley or their brilliant trumpeter Lee Morgan ... ?
