Today we mark a milestone here at SGB Pho(blog)raphy- this is our 100th post! And that which is cause for celebration also proves to be cause for reflection… 99 posts in 22 months. Some thoughtful, some witty, some irreverent, and all a means to this end- to prevent our idle hands from becoming the devil’s …

TOKYO JUXTAPOSED FOR JAPAN DISASTER RELIEF
One year ago, I self-published a photo magazine chronicling some of my travels through Tokyo and had a small exhibit at Supercore in Brooklyn. One year later, much of northeastern Japan has been ravaged by one of the largest earthquakes on record, and by the ensuing tsunami. I’d like to donate all proceeds from any …
さよなら。
(Sayonara.) Tokyo Juxtaposed came down today after an extended exhibition at Supercore in Brooklyn. Thanks once again to Hiko, Yoko, Hideki, and the rest of the Supercore staff for having us, to Loud Objects and Nori for their tag team performance, and to everyone that came out on opening night and showed their support. If …
CLOSED OPENING: A TOKYO JUXTAPOSED + LOUD OBJECTS ÷ DJ NORI VS. THE SUSHI LOOP @ SUPERCORE RECAP
Tokyo Juxtaposed- my series of photographs pairing cultural and aesthetic imagery from modern-day Japan, went on display last Thursday at Supercore in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. A small opening event marked the occasion. Old friends came out to show their support, new friends were made, and a good time was had by all in attendance. The evening …

TOKYO WEEK! FRIDAY
So we’ve made it to the bleary-eyed Friday conclusion of Tokyo Week! here on Pho(Blog)graphy Island, and the survivors are fed up with pressing the button every 108 minutes. (If you don’t know, you’ll have to start with Season One. Trust me.) Thanks to everyone who attended the opening last evening, and an extra special …

After countless restless nights and days of breathless anticipation, the moment has finally come. Tokyo Juxtaposed + Loud Objects, 7pm, Supercore, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, TONIGHT.

WITH A SPECIAL GUEST APPEARANCE BY…
Loud Objects! Unfortunately it looks like Tristan (aka ‘The Cute One‘) will not be in attendance as he is currently ‘out of town.’ Allegedly. Did you just hear that? That was the sound of the collective heart of a throng of prepubescent Jersey City middle school girls breaking. Sad, sad day indeed. But hey, we’ve …
TOKYO JUXTAPOSED @ SUPERCORE
Next month I’ll be showing a select number of photographs from my Tokyo Juxtaposed series at Supercore in Brooklyn. The opening event is set for Thursday, February 11th at 7pm and the show will run through the middle of March. There will be drinks (of the caffeinated and the alcoholic variety), there will be live …

Right. … Tokyo Juxtaposed, my self-published ‘zine chock full of aesthetic and cultural photographic juxtapositions from my early summer jaunt to the land of the rising sun, is still available for purchase over at MagCloud. And …
‘TOKYO JUXTAPOSED’ NOW AVAILABLE
I’ve recently self-published a magazine through MagCloud entitled Tokyo Juxtaposed. The issue contains juxtapositions of photographs that I took while aimlessly wandering around Tokyo (dérive, anyone?), many of which can be seen in the Travel portfolio on my website. I’ve included a few extra diptychs in the magazine in order to ensure its limited edition …
CONTEMPORARY JAPANESE PHOTOGRAPHY
During my recent trip to Japan, I spent some time browsing the photography aisles of a few fine art book stores in Shibuya. My knowledge of contemporary Japanese photography was quite limited prior to my trip although I was fortunate enough to see an excellent retrospective last year at the International Center of Photography on …
こんにちは。
Spending two weeks in Japan, traveling between Tokyo, Kyoto, and Yokohama. As much as I love New York, I must say that Tokyo may truly be the city that never sleeps. One minute your senses are being bombarded by the sounds and lights of an intersection that makes Times Square look tame- the chiming Pachinko …
