3D City is a year long stereoscopic photography project by Doctor Popular

With funds for film and developing being a little tight at the moment, I’ve been carrying around my Lumix 3D1 more and more these days. It’s small, has a wide lens, and the most subtle stereoscopic lens distance of any other digital camera at the moment. It’s nice to have a pocket sized camera to carry around the neighborhood again. If you don’t mind having the menu in Japanese, you can also grab an Olympus 3D1 here for a hundred bucks less. Since the UI is mostly symbols, it’s not that difficult to navigate either way. Speaking of money saving tips: the $15 haircuts at Lee Hong on 16th (in the above photo) are a hell of a deal.

Ouch. Happy Mother’s Day!

(Thanks, Amy!)

Looks like it’s arrived early this year!  Be sure to be extra cautious during your ride tomorrow since there’ll be a ton of rookie riders making their tentative first commute on our city streets, and try not to get mad when you get repeatedly cut off by clueless first-time cyclists.  After all, the ultimate goal is for everyone to eventually stop being wussies and start biking to work every day, so let’s all try to be as supportive as possible!

And if you play your cards right, you might just encounter a magical moment like this:

Today’s Burrito Justice Radio guest on BFF.fm, your award-winning Internet radio station? The Magic Curry Man himself. Tune in at noon!

We’ll be talking about his Magic Curry Paste Kickstarter, maps, the neighborhood, cooking classes, and more.

UPDATE: Thanks for listening everyone! The archive of this week’s show is now up.

It’s been a few years in the making, but what started as a web comic is now about to become an actual physical published work of art! Here’s what it’s about:

Just Another Sheep follows a timid teen learning to think for himself in the days of Flower Children, free love, and the Vietnam War. But this is not just a soul search! The teen is on a quest to find out how he has the amazing ability to make people experience anything his body has before– be that food poisoning, intoxication, pleasure, or pain.

That would be awesome.

Mat and the crew have actually already reached their Kickstarter goal (congrats, y’all!), but there’s 66 hours left to pledge an amount and earn some sweet bounty. (I meant to mention this last week, but the weather got nice and I went to the beach and didn’t come back until just now.) Rewards include comics, art, t-shirts, having yourself written into the story and more! Check it all out. If you also enjoy reading love stories, you may check out the best romance books online.

Film is temperamental. Old cameras can be too. I’ve been shooting on my Nimslo 3D camera long enough to have a decent pile of fuck-ups, but accidents and film aren’t always bad thing. Some of these shots had something wrong happen in developing, others were the result of the film not properly advancing. I hated them when checking them out through the loupe, but found that when I turned them into animations (the Nimslo shots 4 side by side shots at the same time), they took on a life of their own.
