If you have lost your idea, go back to the last place you remember having it. It is sure to be there.
The general idea behind Graffiti Underworld was to collect the wildest graffiti related stories in the voice of the writers themselves and compile them into a book. Each writer’s section reads as if they were sitting face to face with you telling their tale. These stories are meant to put you into the world of the graffiti writer, crawling through train yards, locked in jail cells, running down fire escapes and other forgotten corners of our cities.
I ended up with far too much content to fit into a 200 page book. The following are some outtakes from my interview with HOUR Pigs Crew.
Hour:
I was staying in Oregon for a while, Eugene, Oregon. The first crew I was ever in was called PHO. Putting Heads Out. A lot of the members had gotten in trouble in New Mexico and they bailed to Oregon. They were like you could come up here. They all had a house. You should come up here and stay with us. I was trying to get out and go to Seattle. I ended up going to Oregon. We stayed at this house. It was like a two bedroom house and there were like eight or nine people that lived there. None of us had jobs. We would just party every night. We would just hustle, get money and paint and all that shit. We’d do cart runs of food and cart runs of paint. This chick always let us have parties at her house. We had this three day rager at her house. We racked all this food and beer. In Oregon we would steal beer and return the bottles and buy more beer. So these kids are talking shit to my friend. I go get a couple more people.
They all start piling into this SUV, it’s got rims, it’s brand new, it’s got TV’s, nice as fuck. I see this kid pull open the door and jump in the car. I run across the street and there’s these dudes standing there. They’re like we don’t know what the fuck is going on leave us alone. I told one of my boys to stand in front of the car. I reach over the passenger to the driver and I tell him that’s my fucking brother you run him over and Ima fucking kill you. He’s like “I don’t know what’s going on?” I grab him by the hair and slam his head into the window. I was like “That’s what’s going on!” I tried to pull his keys out of his ignition but I was kind of anxious, so I didn’t turn the key first. So I’m like ripping at the keychain. I bent up the key and it fucked up the ignition. He’s like what the fuck you doing to my car. His CD player was down and I fucking punched down on the CD player and broke it off. I reach back in the back seat and his TV was there open and I folded it backwards so it hit the roof the wrong way and snapped off. I’m like “That’s what the fuck I’m doing!” My friend was pounding this dude nasty. Both his eyes were black. All these chicks were in the car and all these dudes were in the car screaming like chicks and they’re like “Go! Go! Drive the fucking car!” He was like “I can’t this dude’s gonna kill me if I run over his friend.” I left the car and right outside the car there was this house for rent with the metal for rent sign. It was one of the big ones not like the plastic red and white ones. I picked it up out of the ground and started belting the side of their car like sick, putting dents and holes. The whole back of the suburban was filled with all this shit and I start breaking the windows out of the side and I broke the window out of the back and all the shit started falling out. They started freaking out even more. I started putting holes in the other side and they ended up skirting and bailed out. When they bailed more shit started falling out. One of my friends started picking shit up that had falling out. A brand new Playstation in the box had fallen out with a whole book full of games.
We sold that the next day for a couple hundred bucks. That got us some food for a little while. When we we’re leaving, the cops starting piling in. The whole block started filling up. I put my arm around this girl that I had never even met before and we just walked down the block like I was trying to avoid all the confrontation. We had a party the next night at that same house and I killed a handle of Jose Cuervo and a case of beast and ended up fighting all my friends. I got my nose broke. It felt like my friend blackened both my eyes, broke my nose, and busted my lip in one hit. It brought me to my knees, brutally. I was supposed to go to the bus station to go to Seattle to meet up with some kids and they wouldn’t let me on the bus. I was like “Can I still get on the bus?” They were like “What are you kidding me, we can smell the alcohol on your breath and your covered in blood. We can’t let you on the bus.” I was like fuck that I need to get out of here. Let me on this fucking bus. I started to get on the bus and one of the dudes grabbed me, and pulled me off the bus. I was like “What the fuck, you wanna end up looking like me!?” They called the cops on me and this girl that took me to the bus station was like “Leave him alone he’s drunk.” I stumbled down the block and ended up passing out on the street and she drug me by the ankles into her little Honda Civic hatchback and took me back to the party and I just passed out on the couch. My boy who broke my nose woke me up the next morning with a sandwich and a beer and was like my bad.
what the hell was i thinking putting this stuff in my eyebrows and beard, not one of my smarter idea's, it nearly killed me pulling it out :~(
Thank you for your comment it made me realise that even though I was doing something creative I was still being negative. Your suggestion made a real difference to my thinking. Thank you.

Ideas , everyone has a lot of ideas . It varies from person to person and God has given us this unique gift called "Idea" , an Idea can change someone's life in a positive way simultaneously changing someone else's in a negative way . So few days back , there was this conceptual photo that I created which I shared on my facebookpage . That was totally an inspired work and I mentioned in the caption there that I did not have any credits behind the basic concept of that very photograph . Anyway so one of my fans from Facebook maybe missed the description section of the photo and was accusing me that I copied the photo . My answer was yes , because he probably did not get the thing there ! The Thing was my photo and the photo which inspired me both looked kind of similar but they were created with different perspectives , different Ideas . One can recreate a photo of something but they will always have their unique Ideas and Perspective behind their work . So yah once again , "IDEAS ARE BULLETPROOF" period .
I have SO many ideas... Im just not sure how to make them more than just a little thought in my mind
The likable robotic Turtle is exploring an alien planet to prepare the landing of the famous Exo Suit when he/she (one day we should choose, maybe voting…or rolling a dice) runs into the pathetic evildoers of the First Order, in the form of a Stormtrooper patrol.
“Hey look! A turtle droid!” Exclaims one of the Stormtroopers.
“Are you sure it’s a droid? It can be a real turtle inside an armor.” The other Stormtrooper objects.
“A turtle inside an armor?! Where do you get these ideas?”
“Well, I thought if we can build a super weapon of plot destruction that violates any known law of physics someone could put a turtle in a armor…”
“That’s a good point” declares the first Stormtrooper.
“But who cares? I say to kill this thing and have some fun”
“Yeah but we torture it first!”
“Of course! Ha Ha!”
Our robotic friend moves the head up and down, looking at the silly troopers and as they attempt to draw their weapons the brave Turtle fires the blaster cannons putting the two First Order servants out of commission.
Next time the followers of the Tantrum Knight will think twice before bothering our little friend because…
No one messes with the Space Turtle.
Now it’s time to go back to exploration duties.
Those First Order Stormtroopers always end up in such unpleasing situations hehe :)
I hope you like this photo :)
May the Brick be with You :)
I had the idea today. At first I wanted to use this part for the fingers, but on LDD we cannot connect the claws directly on it...

The 39mm thread mount lenses for the Zenit cannot be used on a Leica, Fed or Zorki because the Zenit's flange distance is too large, and neither can the Braun Paxette's 39mm thread mount lenses, for the same reason.
Well then perhaps the Paxette lenses can be mounted and focused on a Zenit, is what I thought to myself and guess what? It works. Here with a Enna Werke Tele-Ennalyt 1:3.5 13.5cm.
I wonder whether anyone ever tried this before or whether I'm the first crackpot who tried.
Shot with:
Canon EOS600D
Leica Bellows R (16860)

The hand is supposed to be mine trying to reach from under all the artsy clutter below (my projects) reaching futily toward the other ideas I don't have time to do. Think Monty Python. hehe
This was done on a large Moleskine Cahier blank journal as a product demo for AMP. The Cahier is bound in kraft paper card stock and has the classic Moleskine pocket in the back.
I sound like a used car salesman. LOL Ok, did a collage using various handmade papers and collage elements from Autumn Moon Paper. I've made notes as to which paper is which.
So I started an Instagram around a month ago and have a couple plans for it.
1. I'll will mostly post the same photos that I post on Flickr, but will maybe post some alternate shots to keep things fresh on there.
2. If any of you guys want to contact me it will be through Instagram. I still check Flickr Mail, but very rarely.
3. Updates on stuff I'm working on will be on there to have "Flickr content" and "Instagram content".
So that's really it. If you want to follow me on Instagram, Its "legobatbrick". (I don't have a link)
Thanks again guys for the support

-"Hey, wait! I'm having one of those things. You know? A headache with pictures?"
-"An idea?"
Same setup as the ice shot, this time with a green filter on the flash.

The capture was taken at the butterfly house of our local zoo. This place is the home of dozens of butterflies and could be photographer's heaven but it is also warm, humid and often quite crowded with people. As a consequence I usually don't spend as much time in there as I would like to and I'm quite happy that on my last visit I managed a few acceptable shots. The butterfly in this photo is also known as Paper Kite or Large Tree Nymph.
Sorry, I'm behind with commenting but I'm sick. I haven't been sick for years and it's a rather unpleasant experience. I'll try to catch up later today but I'm not sure how far I will get as I still have a terrible headache.
Ideas can be life-changing. Sometimes all you need to open the door is just one more good idea.

I'll have to admit being obsessed with these window variations lately. Especially the arched ones. The initial idea was to use SNOT techniques to better integrate these car fender parts when using them for details on buildings. The one shown here is similar to those in part one and two, but with some tricky building to achieve the thin part between the windows.
