I have been documenting the changing face of this neighborhood since 2005 to the present day. I never imagined that going to a photo meetup here would provide me with enough content and inspiration to continue to photograph the dynamic changes taking place as the neighborhood transformed from a dead retail strip on Dundas with derelict and shuttered industry to the hot hipster neighborhood it’s become. The Junction was not always known as such, it was rather West Toronto neighborhood, which for a large part was more often referred to the Stockyards. Meat processing is the only original industry that is still present today, to the dismay of residents. Industry was centralized here as the area had lower land prices and taxes and the creation of an official port of entry. Also Canadian Pacific developed a large rail yard which extends from Keele to Scarlet road. This led to massive industrial and commercial development which stayed for the most part until closures started with these companies in 2005.
Canada packers, CCM, Campbell Milling and Heinzman piano company were the most notable companies, which all have been converted respectfully to a large mall, another mall complex and a high rise condo. Other buildings such as the Symes waste transfer station and Sherwin Williams and Houghton plant were recently converted into a brewery, a failed condo development now waiting to be sold, and a studio complex with a gym and printing facilities. The first spot I photographed was the old Sherwin Williams plant in late 2005 on a cold Christmas weekend and it peaked my curiosity about industry in the city. Another notable location I visited multiple times was the old GE plant, which as of today (2018) is completely redeveloped. The old Bunge complex, which was located on St.Clair west of Keele was my personal favorite spot to visit while it was intact. I must have been 8 times and got to know the entire complex quite well. It was knocked over very quickly and the large stockyards mall took it’s place.
The story of my junction documentary project is quite extensive and the best way to discover more is to look at the captions on the images. I enjoyed exploring an area with so much industrial diversity so close to home and find myself wishing I still had something like this in my backyard.

Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht gilt als das bekannteste Weihnachtslied der Welt. Es ist in Österreich, wo es komponiert wurde, als Inbegriff des Weihnachtsbrauchtums zum Immateriellen UNESCO-Kulturerbe erklärt worden. Zu Heiligabend 1818 führten der Arnsdorfer Dorfschullehrer und Organist Franz Xaver Gruber (1787–1863) und der Hilfspfarrer Joseph Mohr (1792–1848) in der Kirche St. Nikola in Oberndorf bei Salzburg das Weihnachtslied Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht erstmals auf. Oberndorf am rechten Ufer der Salzach war bis zum Vertrag von München (1816) ein Ortsteil, die einstige Schiffervorstadt der Stadt Laufen (Salzach).
Mohr hatte den späteren Liedtext bereits 1816 in Mariapfarr im Salzburger Bezirk Lungau in Form eines Gedichts geschrieben. Franz Xaver Gruber, der als Sohn einer armen Leinenweberfamilie aus Hochburg-Ach im Innviertel stammt, komponierte dann vor Weihnachten 1818 auf Wunsch von Josef Mohr eine Melodie zu diesem Gedicht.

The Duke Vigil was a silent demonstration at Duke University, April 5 - 11, 1968, following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King. Up to 1,400 students slept on the Chapel Quad, food services and housekeeping employees went on strike, and most students boycotted the dining halls in support of the employees.

Saw this written with some sort of blue powdered cleaning product on a small ceramic table in Talgarth Asylum. I like the molton look of the powder that colouring has produced and its eerieness. Silent Hill is both a film and computer game.
Artist Build Collaborative and the Myrtle Avenue Brooklyn Partnership flipped the switch on Silent Lights, a new public art installation located underneath the Brooklyn Queens Expressway.
Silent Disco in Boulder, Colorado.
Silent Disco is a fun way to lose calories while not disturbing anyone around you. Just pick up the headphones, hula hoop and jive to lose calories, all for free and no disturbance to others!

This week, the sequel to Silent Hill (which was originally filmed in Brantford) was filmed in downtown Galt, Cambridge. This was the setting for when Rose enters the town across the bridge.
I took this photo of a carousel horse and gave it a grungier look in the editing suitw so it looked creepy like something out of one of the Silent Hill games.
I got my order in from Silent Paradise! They are urethane eyes, and they offer basically anything you could want in regards to custom sizing. These are 16mm with smaller iris and pupils. 16mm with 7mm iris and small pupils (the black part in the middle.)
They are BEAUTIFUL eyes. They look a lot like a wild cat's eyes, they make me think of lion eyes.
They're pretty expensive, though right now until Silent Paradise gets a website running, they are 20 percent off. I think they are normally $85? I got mine for $65 I believe. Took about two months, and were packaged VERY well. A padded envelope, then a box, then a smaller box inside the box!
My only issue with them is that Mao's eyes are uneven inside, so they sit too far back. I didn't know how wide and flat the whites of Silent Paradise eyes were, so I think I probably just could have gotten 14mm eyes and they would have fit fine with no gapping. I am considering maybe getting a beveler and trying to make the fit better.
the reason for our trip: silent comedies at the Toronto Silent Film Festival. the giggling coming from kids in the back was an added delight.

Silent Dance Party at Dundas Square last night where everyone started playing the same song on their mp3 players at midnight and began to dance, creating a very interesting spectacle. Read more about it at spacing wire.

Thanks the the holiday break I was able to chip away at my gaming backlog. One game in particular that I was pleased to cross off my list was Silent Hill Homecoming (Xbox 360)
Now I have never played a Silent Hill game before (except for a few minutes of Silent Hill:Origins on the PSP) so I can't say how this game compares to previous entries. What I can say however is that I had a damn good time with Homecoming. The eerie-factor of the game reminded me of pre RE4 Resident Evils. Homecoming features some really creepy environments, disturbing ambient sounds & chilling music. Unlike those Resident Evil games though, Homecoming allows you to MOVE & SHOOT at the same time which id much appreciated.
Though the combat & gameplay are pretty shallow in the game, the mystery of "what the f*** is going on!?!?" kept me hooked from start to finish. At many points I found it difficult to quit the game as I was extremely eager to unravel the mystery that was unfolding all around me. Luckily, the game does give up some explanations towards the finale, and while it may not be Hollywood blockbuster material, it's disturbingly good as far as survival horror games go. The story of Homecoming was intriguing enough though, that Ev stuck around to watch how things unfolded.
Those looking for 'jump out of your seat' type scares may be disappointed, but if 'creepy tension' is what you seek then look no further than Homecoming.
I'm glad I picked this game up as I had a good time with it. Enough so that I played through it twice (to better understand the story) as well as went back for some additional achievement hunting. You can probably find Silent Hill Homecoming for around the $10 mark these days, and it's a great bargain at that price (I've got it on my trade list, wink wink).
Silent Hill Homecoming - Enjoyed the visit, but I wouldn't want to stay.
