Ronen's Everything

Rian just sent me another pic from the Mountain Goats shoot 4 years ago, with me (‘before I was cool’) standing in for John Darnielle, and rcjohnso in the background hooking up video camera trickery.
(Yes, that’s me on the hanging disemboweled television.)

RIAN: “It makes me so happy that the picture of you that shows up on my phone when you call is a picture of you from before you were cool.”
RONEN: Ha, nice! Which picture?
RIAN: It’s from the Mountain Goats Shoot, and you’re standing there with a camera and a yarmulke and a big goofy smile.
RONEN: Well, I still have the camera and the big goofy smile.
RIAN: True.

Yes, that was me once.
That day was one of the great days.

sometimes I just find them lying on the side of the road and take them

A few months ago I did an experiment:

I decided to make prints of my pictures. Yes- Physical, real-world large-sized bonafide hang-em-on-your-wall prints.

I sent out an email and got an overwhelming response- the first run of 3 was filled in under 2 minutes (!). To say I was touched and overwhelmed at the response would be an epic understatement.

The first three requested prints were:

We even had a small party to celebrate when they were ready. And now, each piece is hanging in their respective owners’ home- which blowns my mind so much I can’t even begin to process it.

At any rate, a few people requested prints back then who missed that initial run of three. And since then, some more good folks have requested to purchase prints.

So here’s what I’m going to do:

My camera just died, mere days days before I’m due for my first exhibition at Art Basel (what??!).

I’ve started a 24-Hour Kickstarter Project to fund the new camera. Any contribution over $350 will receive an original Print.

If you want a Print, this is how to get it. Your choice- any pic you like.

Everyone who contributes can take credit (and perhaps some blame?) for every pic and vid I make with the new camera.

This is an experiment. Let’s see what happens.

The Project closes in 24 hours.
