we took a ferry to staten island. rode a bus a few blocks in. went to an awesome vintage shop. Everything Goes, its certainly worth the free ferry ride. and i got ryan the polka dot hat in the left hand corner of the last picture. i thought it would be a nice twin to his soccer hat.
back on the main island we went to the david byrne “playing the building” exhibit. my second visit that week. Creative Time was hosting a private viewing and we got in, the powers of our racial diversity are surely what did it. on the balcony we asked a man to take a polaroid, i had very specific instructions. he couldnt find which button to press and he asked me to put his hand on it, i did, he took the photo. after his lady friend said “how nice of you to let a blind man take a picture”.
