-So, i've been working on this series of 'anti-photographs' (see the bottom of this post!) titled Too Much Time For the Self-Employed, and although i've been dropping them here occasionally, I figure I should let you know you can see them as they're made right here. :)
-A few new BOTY releases are out!
-A 1/1 print from the Dark Arts show this month is available at Siqshit!
-Some recent work on Juxtapoz this week!
-I will be putting up both deadstock BOTY stuff and originals here every week!

YO DUDES! HEY!
OKAY!
Some stuff quick:

-i (+sonia) will be in Europe for a while (indefinitely?) starting in April, and i'm looking to do as many shows/projects as possible while there! i'm wanting to do as many site specific (gallery/house/studio/outside/whatever!) exhibits (one night/one week/month/whatever!) of new work... UK, France, Spain, Morocco (not in the EU but I will be there anyways!), and... well, most any place i'm willing to travel to! Italy and Greece has been talked about a lot these past weeks- i'm just looking to solidify a plan sooner than later! So, perhaps if you know anyone who could help me out- email me! dimitrikarakostas@gmail.com! I'm open to most ideas!
-bart comix are back and worse than ever!
-i'll clap when i'm impressed, BOTY's 50th zine, is in the shop! we're down to the last copies of 90% of everything there, but we're dropping something like... 10-20 new things in January and February!
-our 51st release, 100/2011, is a web-only zine focused on our top 100 photo posts from the past year. go check it out!
-i'm working on stuff for beautiful/decay now, so keep closer tabs over there!
-look at the first point again!

GET IN TOUCH/STAY IN TOUCH!

Hey! Promethazine Daydream is now totally finished, and looks fucking excellent! This is the size of a tabloid, full color, 24 pages of 62 cell phone photos, and comes with a letter-sized Promethazine Daydream alt-cover screenprint!

You can grab one of ten copies in the BOTY shop for a limited time! You know i've been psyched on this for a while now, so here's the flip-through on issuu as well! Give her a look- i'm stoked, and I want you to be as well!

ALSO!! Living Well is the Best Revenge!
I put this out for Canzine, and I still have a few at BOTY... just saying!

YOU ONLY SAY MY NAME WHENEVER YOU'RE ON TOP, IT DOESN'T MAKE US EVEN SO OBVIOUSLY WE'RE NOT

2011-10-05T10:42:00.000-07:00

Yo homies! Reilly and I have a show titled Mean Hymn coming up in November! We're really psyched, and well... I hope you will be too! It's all new work... and yeah, stoked!

I'm also going to do a new POTYAABS every day for the rest of the month! I thought it didn't need any more, but... well, I guess y'all like 'em. Word!

And probably some other stuff, too... but we'll wait a bit for that!

NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID OR WHO YOU FUCKED, I'D GO THROUGH HELL FOR YOU NO MATTER WHAT

2011-09-10T13:47:00.000-07:00

I have two zines in The Artist's Publication shop right now, as well as a few in the BOTY shop... you know! As usual, BOTY is taking up most of my time... we have big stuff coming up, though! Research 4 looks amazing, but we're holding off a few weeks... get a few more artists down. It's gonna be worth it. Also have some pretty... well, unreal shoots this week. Pretty psyched to drop those, that's for sure! ALSO ALSO, the studio will have 'open hours' starting next month... right now it's just a mess, but if you absolutely must stop by and grab zines/prints, shoot me an email!

Finished up the second music video for Guy Dallas last week... nice change from last year's Three Laces Four My Pairs.

Yup!

A few notes:

-I Slept Fine Because My Bed Still Smells Like Sex With You is on it's last four copies!
-I'm working on archiving all our zines into PDFs; right now, you can flip through ISFBMBSSLSWY, All of This Will End, and BOTY's first zine ever, Girls. Great!

Here are some photos from two days ago... bike rides to the Humber Bay are my favorite thing.

2011-07-02T22:35:00.000-07:00

A gross sticky roll found in my bag... dog fights, Spanish gangs, rooftop cell-phone hang-outs, Liam the Faded, William Hundley, self-portraits, and dollar signs. I'm glad I found these!

That time it was kinda weird to see Fucked Up on like, a fucking jumbotron while drinking free energy drinks.

That time the moon looked pretty scary.

TO WHATEVER EXTENT YOU HATE YOURSELF, IT ISN'T ENOUGH

Recent!!
Punch Yourself in the Face and Drop Dead came out this week, which you should all buy!
I have work in Hyperallergic's Presents, which you should go to if you're in BK!
Uhhh, I won that TVO Photo Month contest!! COOL!
I printed a few more Bart x BOTY "Smash the State, Man!" patches, as well as finished up Research III!
So yeah, BOTY on smash!
What else...

Uhhh, some of these photos are in an upcoming zine I Slept Fine Because My Bed Still Smells Like Sex With You, which will more than likely come out next week. I picked up proofs Thursday and just need to fix some crop issues. It's a really nice zine, though! Super psyched to get it out!
