NEW FAKE FLICKR RSS
for those of you who wish to follow me through RSS readers or feeds of some kind and find my feed is empty its just the massive douchebaggery of flickr and their censors. but don't worry, i sorted it out for you.

I spent an evening writing a small php app that talks to flickr and makes a faux flickr rss feed. I cloned it exactly so if your reader is flickr feed smart it should work like gangbusters.

you can subscribe to my faux feed here: http://flickrhack.ruzz.org and feel free to email me with any problems. enjoy the power of subversive code :P

and now back to the blah blah..

nothing lives in this stream long. Look through the images and hopefully find something you can feel. perhaps, if i've done my work well i will break through the sea of abstractions and bring you to the concrete reality of this thing i show you. whatever that may be.

probably not. but that won't stop me from trying to bring you damaged, worn, heartfelt images of my idea of beauty. Not so as to convince you it's the correct one, rather, to show you the only thing that lives inside me.

100 69 images was the last cut off, and i deleted them all. favorites and comments and sexy girls, and decay. this time may be 50. maybe. 20. maybe 1.

please don't let the impermanence of this space prevent you from sharing, or favoriting. or wallpapering your wall with my pictures, any more than the impermanence of your love would prevent you from kissing your lover, or the impermanence of life would prevent you from trying to live.

no, reject that meaninglessness and leave with me, in my transient gift, some part of you until we tear it all down again and find each other anew.

    "I have known this guy for years, and the man within is passionate, raw, and sensual. You can see that raw sensual passion in his work, which has grown in proportion and popularity. His work is truly art at its finest!"

    "the growth of .lush the artist is much like the growth of .lush the man: constant, complex and exciting. in the few short years he's been devoted to the camera he's reinvented his style and reinvented his style and reinvented his style, reaching a place that is all his own, just as he has done with his personal life.

    he is a good friend, the best really, and, most importantly, he is family.

    miss .lush's art and you miss life."

    "A very talented photographer who has both a clear, unique vision and a creative eye for striking visual imagery. Beautifully cinematic portraits, powerful landscapes, intense captured moments on the human condition....There's never a dull moment on his stream.

    He consistently posts high quality photography, be it film or digital, this guy can handle everything! I look forward to each and everyone of his images.

    Lush's work continues to inspire me as it should to everyone on Flickr."

    "Entering Lush's world is a journey through his particular vision of capturing the moment.

    I just love his aesthetics, the way the sky inspires him and his amazing attention to details.

    Although I don't personally know the man behind the camera, just through the quality of what Lush wants to share with the world, I guess he's hypersensitive and expresses raw emotions."
