  1. Kelp Part 2: All Lit Up on the Insides

    2016-08-18 23:24:00 UTC

    Luther and I recently got acquainted with our GoPro. We’ve had it since 2013, but only in the past couple of weeks have we started playing around with it. Above is our first “masterpiece,” shot by Luther along the coastline north of Santa Barbara. Luther likes to dive whenever he…

    Luther Gerlach, Homage to Rodin, 2013 Emil Schildt, 2016 Inspiration works in mysterious and synchronistic ways. It seems to have a mind of it’s own, and a will to spread. It struck me as a good subject to launch this blog, Transfixed. Basically when Luther’s work, or process, or…
