Blogger has been giving me endless grief. As many of you may have guessed, I am already blogging here now. Come say "hi".Not "later"... gone.

Rudi knows me better than most. I’m a cunt. Or, at least, I often appear to be. Given the nature of much of what I photograph, and the ways of means of popular and/or counter-culture, I often come across those who assume they know (for the purposes of the conversations they have with me) what I will, and should, say. They’re often wrong. This leaves me having to explain why I don’t have to

For those who know... the words come from the beginning of Badu's "Love Of My Life" video. Respect to ?uestlove for the wide variety on Friday night... I have never seen so many musos and headz just watch a DJ at work before. And some need to stop hating on me for my reaction to Roxanne.A lotta memories came back that night... Philly people in the room, and Hamma and I remembering 1999 and eating

There is much to be said for this, regardless of the language barrier. Besides, translations are easily tracked down. The title, Hoppipolla, means "hopping into puddles"... it's a state of mind I can dig, these days, something born of upliftment.There's more besides, but for now, it is what it is. It reminds me of late nights, and mattresses... new work and new directions. I was holding back on

A hard time, perhaps. Spent last night unpacking, and then again this morning; books of years ago, '99 in Sunnyside. A Buddhist shrine. A whole lotta soul music, rare bootleg Oasis. T-shirts. Well, shirt.Hidden messages, differing time zones, reading between the lines. January is a long way away... a part of me wishes I was going with a friend to Japan; he's off to see family, I wouldn't mind

Very busy... film projects and the like. Been down "Nostalgia Lane" with old Fokofpolisiekar material; this while listening to Francois Van Coke come into his own as a lyricist on his band's new album, Waaksaam en Wakker. Like the moments above, there are some things difficult to understand from the outside... more and more explanation is required, allowing more and more room for misunderstanding

New project is up and rolling. Started shooting Friday (right on cue with the weather) into Saturday. This after a wee break and all following the exhibition opening and some rest... see A Claude Glass blog for more...At the moment, the new Oasis is keeping me going:"I said I'm tired Come get me off the merry-go-round I'm wired Come feed me and then bring-a-me down." - OasisThat, and The Norm, of

Two weeks ago I was driving back from Bloemfontein, after a night spent with die bende, as they opened their new tour promoting their new EP... two weeks from now I will be at the Rooke Gallery, opening A Claude Glass.The Fokof work is up on Speakerbox, to be seen here.

Back from a weekend in Cape Town, 5th anniversary and all. Sleep deprivation experiments in full effect, as final preparations kick in for the exhibition.

Sorry for delayed posts... sorry for delayed email responses... I get an obscene amount of mails these days. I struggle to reply at the best of times, and the "work" ones go back and forth all day long, that I never get a chance to reply to the ones I would really like to; the "fan" mails on Facebook and the requests for assistant work or portfolio reviews... I promise to get through them all

Sorry it has been so long... there has been a lot on my plate lately, from Levi's commercial shoots, to long-term personal projects, to Not In Our Lifetime work and Oppikoppi... the list goes on, but Oppikoppi probably tops it, as it connects to a number of things.First off, I have been brought out of a self-imposed "music journo" retirement by an old friend, Annel Malan, who has convinced to

This is actually being written Thursday the 29th, but is certainly an accurate reflection of what was going through my mind again and again on Monday morning...Come early Sunday morning, I was busy shooting for a long term project that looks at xenophobia, amongst other aspect's of South Africa's history; this amidst the recent wave of xenophobic violence that gripped some of our larger cities.

Urg... delirium. Shoot on Tuesday, and then sick... home to fever. Not just my daughter, but me as well. Remember how cherished the thought of staying home from school was? I say 'the thought', because in twelve years of schooling, I never stayed home once. Now I get to do it with my kid, as she demands lollipops, and to watch the Strawberry Shortcake movie again. Not as bad as it sounds...

And I know what you are thinking; the glassy eyes, the shaggy, lanky haircut, the faux leopard-print tights: My 4-year-old daughter is modelling herself after Damn Right.

A little overwhelmed, to be honest. Just back from the Red Bull Music Academy's A Class Of Its Own. So much new music, both on my iPod and witnessed live...Torsten catching me off-guard with his sunrise beats; Hannibal's take on Hotstix, as well as his Living With colab with Owusu...Some of the best house I have ever heard from Black Coffee, nuf respect to Busi in the process; that, and anything

None of this is going to make any sense... but it's a line, amongst others, that I got to hear of Aloe's.

Oh yes... them again...Appropriate... there are updates and explanations that are required; for a start, I had no idea there were so many that read my blog, and would mail as to why it had run dry of late...Just quickly for now, before I run off again... awards, evil housing lawyers, visa issues, no Norway, temporary passports success, yes Swaziland, Hope's Voice, rewarding work, rewarding people

A Swedish name (I think) and she was French... but she was the only one in the crowd that looked straight at me.I was surprised the reaction I got from a few that read my last blog... I appreciate the concern and the well-wishes, and all the positivity and faith I got from people as I put my dilemma to them.To explain: I was offered a place in Christopher Anderson's class at the Magnum Workshop

A balancing act, of sorts. Been out of it lately, after a visit to a doctor revealed a serious injury, and low blood pressure on top of it... two weeks without exercise, sugar or even coffee. If you know me, that last one is a killer.And now... got an email, with some amazing news: the chance to be overseas doing something incredible, a major step forward in my career.

The Clash... and the long road there. No power in the house, no chance to work, so I have been bumming out with an injured knee watching Weeds on my iPod. Fell in love with the theme by Malvina Reynolds... and in the second series, the version by Elvis Costello (was going to name Brigid "Declan", by the way, if she was a boy).Anyways, got to listening to more Elvis, particularly the hard-line

Though I have yet to hold a copy in my hands, I gather Highveld Living has finally published the images I shot of rodeo cowboys... in the highveld! I alluded to it back here, though tried to keep it to myself in the meantime and not blog the hell out of it before it was even published.When I first showed these images to curators and colleagues, they naturally seemed out of place in a South

Zander and I have been caught in discussions of technique... for all my dedication to the approach and ritual of a documentarian, I find myself recently influenced by his parodies of Modernism and other paths. Finding reference and focus in the words, works and ideals of painters, even as Zander points to my work as "painterly" at times. This, for example, written of Caravaggio: ... the

Something different... verse, unsung... prose by Yeats, on what is "popular poetry"? Another disconnected Irishman, such as myself, was discussing similar things with me: What puts the "pop" in popular, and where then may we then draw our electricity from?This was all shortly before the others woke... long before this image was made, though the conversation had spread constantly over this

Zander and I have been trying to suss out a road trip since the end of 2006... we like travelling and shooting the breeze, usually, but there were circumstances in that year that led us to put everything on hold for a while. Looks like we are over that, though we have left it up until the last minute (as usual.)But we seem to like the pressure that way... and the coffee.So yeah... we are off to

After dislocating my arm down in Cape Town (AGAIN!) and having suffered similar mishaps over the last few years, I decided to get myself back in shape... after all, I have crossed over the "big 3-0" line, and have started to notice that everyone around me (of the same age) is either a parent (check) and sporting some extra waistline (not check... and I intend to keep it that way for some time.)So

I got an advance copy of A King's Dutch Courage while doing the shoot above, and I have had it on heavy rotation since... and my guess is if you follow the music of Fokofpolisiekar, yet lean more towards English as a mother tongue, you will do the same when you get yourself a copy.

Bought some songs online this weekend... managed to track some old Charlatans songs I had lost. They were one of those British bands that never made it as big as, say, Oasis, but were a key part of the whole baggy era... and of course, they played with Oasis at Knebworth. They have been on my mind for ages now... Blunted Stuntman included them in a mix at Oppikoppi, and seemed surprised that I

I just noticed that I have reached 10 000 views on my MySpace blog, which really just serves as a link to this one. I don't know if I should be excited by that, but I am, mostly because it is contagious (and the source of that contagion would be Headline Payoff.) They got very excited when they first hit 10 000 (and 11 000, and 200 before 20 000, and 27 000) and are now clocking it well beyond

Gotta love MySpace... was just reminded by Jeanne of work I recently did for One Small Seed. Was very happy with the outcome (of this collaboration, of sorts) and that they ran a page from my journal to link it all together... just unhappy with how they edited the text I sent them to accompany it.

Been busy planning ( I think I have already said...) This might have been better suited to my Monday Morning lyrical reference, but the fact is, with all the coffee and insomnia of late (a connection, perhaps?) I have been focusing on old projects; and Springsteen features heavily in that. There are those out there who get my obsession with The Boss; one such group would be Die Heuwels Fantasties

Things are happening, as they usually do, with more weight and definition, it being end of year. Friends in transit, itchy feet. Reworking ideas. Returning from Melbourne, two days on the ground, then to London. Notting Hill, on the lookout for coffee and Ian Brown with Paul. All this more than a year behind, travel again less than a year ahead. So much to plan and when there, so much to see and

Was hard at work until sunrise; clearly, I drank too much coffee to begin with. Everything was of a serious note, sorting out details on the HIV/AIDS story I shot for Dazed & Confused:Japan, as well as the Be True event campaign for Nike. Everything is now up, except for me, really... I feel like a car parked on my head (maybe due to having played Arcade Fire loudly in my headphones on repeat

I have been waiting quite a while to publish all of this; these photos, these stories, have a very special connection to World Aids Day for me. Not just as a result of content, dealing as they are with people affected in varying ways by HIV/AIDS, but in terms of form, the images... one in particular. This is not the first time I have posted the image above on my blog in reference to this day. In

At this stage, I am exhausted. Seems I have been typing and blogging for days. But yeah... what you see here is the fruits of a frenetic campaign handled by Trigger for Nike, as they made plans to relaunch Nike Dunks in the context of AIDS Awareness, on the eve of World Aids Day and the 46664 concert (from what I gather...

I am never sure why, but I just cannot connect with Durban.

It is about "the kind of place where people only wore their sunglasses when it was sunny."It might only make sense to those who were there; maybe that is the way it should be. I miss it.Liam, Pierre, Blaise and smoky Rudi. And there were many others.Later.

There can be very little that makes sense in these... the first time I heard the Stone Roses, versus the first time I heard Public Enemy?Can I find myself in it somehow?"Culture saves nothing or nobody, nor does it justify. But it is a product of man: he projects himself through it: this critical mirror alone shows him his image." - SartreLater.

Bizarre moments of late... what with the press for my exhibition, I have been skylined I guess; easier to pick off; in a better position to hear some bizarre theories as to how and why I do what I do. Not least of which regard my temper and my apparent "god complex". Guess I shouldn't have made that comment at Oppiaarde about not needing wellingtons, as I am fully capable of walking on water. I

This time last year, we took a walk around London in celebration of a special day... remember, remember...Johnny's birthday, come closing, a lot chiller than the brandy Wynand fed him just after midnight.

Something strange I realised at this year's Oppiaarde fetsival in Potchesfstroom... my memories of the Springbok Nude Girls go back quite a long way, yet I had never photographed them live, until that night. Arno (the bass player, not the singer) wanted to know if there was a way that I could get all five members in a shot doing what they do best in one way or another... not exactly the easiest

Today is Hunter Kennedy's birthday. Go maire tú an lá! And, knowing Hunter, sláinte! Since I wished his girlfriend this morning (as he was out like a candle from the night before) I have had the lyrics of the sisters Hill stuck in my head... let's hope I do not get into shit writing them here... apparently there are some serious copyright issues surrounding them:"Happy birthday to you, Happy

Just back from 9 Days in Cape Town... still in recovery. Good time spent with Pierre Lukraak and the Welgemoed/Belville/Durbanville Tripartite Alliance. Many loud sing-a-longs with the radio, the speaker of which occupies most of the boot of his car. We have realised that neither of us have the breath for this. As I said... good times."One last thing before I quit I never wanted any more than I

In a world of pain. The shot is the last from a session with Cape Town's Ashtray Electric... we were doing an EP cover and a few flyer and poster options. After a quick perusal on the ol' Mac, we returned to the balcony for round two. I set up the timer and did a quick reference myself for height... just before the shutter clicked, so did my shoulder.You can see the noise registering on the faces

Though I should point out, this is as much a post about Tumi's lyrics as it is about those of Saul's. But there will be more of that soon... for now, the lyrics in mind were mentioned in answering a question I put to Tumi backstage: Why does he never rock a cordless? Later, I couldn't remember that they were Saul's (and its not as if he is some distant connection to make... I have seen him

Been a whole day since I got to listen to this, but it was a Monday morning scenario to start with... the good people at Sony BMG (thank you Paul) sent me a wee package that I collected from my agent, and although I couldn't play the song until later, these words have been in my head all day.Funnily enough though, not the words of the song itself, but the little scenario that took place before it

Having been aptly named by Rebecca Kahn as the "tallest band in the land", Bed On Bricks back up their stature with more than just sheer size... they have an uncanny ability to look like a bunch of guys from Cape Town with little interest in posturing, that can take a stage and practically burn it down, no matter the time-slot or location.This year's Oppikoppi was no exception; a mellow exchange

Typing this out late Monday, exhausted. Don't know when it will be finished; I doubt I'll see the end of it tonight. It has been a long week (or two) and while I had an enjoyable time in Cape Town, I found myself longing for a bit of Pretoria accent and bleached winter dust. While heading to and fro across the city and later (when my wife returned home from our "not"-holiday and I stayed on to
