This is a photo of my friend Luis from high school - we both had radio shows senior year, so we hung out in the booth a lot. We’d always start out laughing and somehow end up talking about deep shit. I remember rambling about justice for Justin Bieber during my show, and playing a lot of The Head and The Heart. Once, a crush found me in the athletic room while I was getting ice before practice and he said, “DJ Myntti! We heard your show last night.” I replied, “Yeah, did you like it?” and this eighteen-year-old jock stumbled over his words and just repeated, “DJ Myntti...” I couldn’t stop thinking about it for like 3 weeks. Clearly, I’m still thinking about it.

Anyway, did you hear, I started a newsletter that goes directly into your email inbox?

In the film 20th Century Women, Greta Gerwig takes pictures of the things she owns as a self portrait practice. So as a fan: Yes, thank you Mike Mills, I will do that too.

For consistency, I waited til dark. I put up a black velvet fabric as the background. Then turned on all my lights and the spot. I used a warm light bulb, and a very low shutter speed. The results were kind of blurry because film cameras require so much light! But it came out feeling like a soft, sort of intimately focused stage.

Guess what’s in the box

I wasn’t really expecting all the drama that came out of these. But I guess black velvet is reliably a vibe. The photos individually all have a perspective, but seem thematically random when put together. So what’s the point? Something about finding your voice and power. They all have a certain sensuality, I suppose.

Thanks for reading always, catch you on the flip side <3
