Old ink

I have a tattered sheet of notebook paper that is 10 years old. On it is a list of ideas I came up with Kevin laird in 1998. We had a plan to take " avant-guard " photographs. Here they are written exactly as they are this piece of paper. I think i still want to do a few of these.

. London after midnight- sharky-grin
. Flour and water- flour dripping down skin, color contrast
. Manjari holding water-looking pure in the middle of a gross street. ( Manjari girl we knew)
. Girl as part of a landscape- Candy! her in a pile of candy stuck to melted lollipops. Kevin writes "advanced pornography" we had the idea before Suicide Girls.
. Environmental Contrasts-Baby-Doll, girl surrounded by jagged waste
. Transformation-beauty to ugliness Cosmetic disfiguration
. Band photo in ruined grocery Store
. We have a gun! ( i don't know what that one means)
. White underwear- Splattered paint
. Body painting
. Animal People-quasi human primal people
. Rima amongst mannequins-focus on her eyes. (rima was a girl we knew who pretty much looked like a mannequin
. GORE!
. fucked-up perspectives -too large, too small
. A baby A baby! ( again I don't what this means?
.Kevin porn (haha)
. Fascist Dress-up's Drop colors on colored backround
.Black person white face, White person black face, tongues touching
.Broken glass-perfect body, dirty fingernails
. light bulbs in their mouth standing in a line
. A picture of the Beautiful Mutants dressed up like the Beatles
. People holding sadistic message signs

Unfortunately we never got around to any of it.
