Ed Nacional is a current student at Parsons + a design intern at the NY Times.  So, it should be obvious to everyone reading that the kid’s got no future.  I joke, I kid!  Ed has a very, very impressive portfolio.  It’s interesting to see his editorial style carried over into his work outside the walls of the Times.

Be sure to check out Ed’s site + follow him on Twitter.

Stumbled across Mike Peters’ excellent Flickr this afternoon while trolling through a Hasselblad pool and I’m digging it, especially the Coney Island sets featured here.

At times the collection may feel a little (just a little) exploitative (see: random fat people shot for being fat and random) but overall this is a great cross section of documentary style photography in NY and Jersey.  On film and on a Hasselblad.  I liiike.  To quote Kristy Martino, “You CANNOT beat a square format, man.”

Matter of fact, I’m gonna dedicate this post to Kristy for a couple reasons: 1.  She had a nice Hasselblad that she loved and had to pawn for gas money (buzzkill) and 2. As a recent NYC transplant, I know she’s missing Coney Island and all it’s weirdness, sadness and wonderousness.

Enjoy everyone!

One of my dreams as a child was to live inside a house full of water and go to a school full of water…

This isn’t quite a fulfillment of a childhood fantasy but it comes kinda close; Leandro Erlich’s installation “Swimming Pool” will be on display at PS1 until this coming October.

So, come on, New Yorkers, help me realize my dreams (kind of-you walk underneath) vicariously through you (maybe).  Don’t be selfish…
