Sandy Zine
November 13, 2012

sandy zine-
All the photos in this zine were taken in lower Manhattan from Oct, 29 2012 to Nov, 2 2012—the days following Hurricane Sandy where a significant chunk of America’s largest city was without power. A $10 donation will get you this 52-page zine and help aid the recovery of many along our coast who are, still, without power and many now, without homes.
Please come by New York Adorned, Tuesday through Thursday, or PayPal payments can be sent to sandyreliefzine@gmail.com (there is a donation button on the left of [his] blog). Please include your shipping address, and $1 donations for shipping are much appreciated.
Limited quantities also avalible at Mast Books and Printed Matter.
All proceeds go to hurricane relief. If you would prefer to have your donation go to Occupy Sandy instead of the Red Cross please specify upon donating.
Greenpeace, Radiohead & Jude Law
July 09, 2012
A noble effort by Radiohead and Jude Law, but I can't help but roll my eyes at Greenpeace efforts that are supported by major celebrities because said celebrities don't bother to do their research on the history of the organization. I have no right to judge as the organization is doing a lot more than I am, but I can't help but wonder if people know that there are other, more noble and gung-ho groups that could use their support.

Manhattan Oil Project
March 27, 2012
Photo and article at The New York Times
"If it looks as if someone just struck oil in a vacant lot near Times Square, it may be a while before you see any evidence of Texas tea.
The two 25-foot simulated oil pump jacks bobbing up and down at the southeast corner of 46th Street and Eighth Avenue are actually a new sculptural work by the New York-based artist Josephine Meckseper. An initiative by the nonprofit Art Production Fund, “Manhattan Oil Project” officially opens today and will remain on view through May 6."
