Dasein: An invitation to hang could not be going better. Thanks to all of your participation, I get to spin through thousands of great images ever day. I'm having a blast, and I thought you might like to see what's got me fired up right now. My photo of the day for today is this priceless had-to-be-there moment from kinugrove. Other photos that have me jazzed? See what we've got hanging in the gallery at...

Since we're not tracking image by image whose work is hanging daily at the gallery in the Ace NYC (it's on a near constant rotation of prints - hundreds per day), we'll continue to publish vids like this and still images for you all to check out. REMINDER: this gallery wall changes every day, sometimes 2x per day, with 100-200 new images going up in every update. Stay tuned for yours. Still humbled...

Living at the Ace Hotel New York for 5 weeks has the benefit of getting to connect with the amazing cross section of people & culture. Enter: Reggie Watts. I've got a ton of respect for Reggie. He's a genius musician in a comedian's skin, who moved from Seattle to NYC a short while ago as his career exploded. The LA Times called him, "Deliciously strange." New York Magazine called him, "Spectacularly original."...

This was one of my all time favorites episodes of chasejarvis LIVE. Brooklyn-based We Are Augustines swooped into the Garage and--in between sharing amazing insight about struggle, creative vision, and inspiration--played an amazing, emotionally-charged set for us. We then followed up with a live photoshoot for forthcoming promo material for the band and release of their new album. BTW, when you realize that you want to buy their album, sit tight. It'll be...

Yowza. Just posting the chasejarvisLIVE rewatch here of the initial announcement and quick update on the project I launched just 4 days ago. (video above, audiocast version here.). Thanks to you and the worldwide creative community, the Dasein: An Invitation to Hang installation in NYC is off to an unbelievable start. I'm blown away by the images, the volume, and your response to the project. Humbled. Inspired. But we're just getting started. Yours...

It involves a worldwide creative collaboration of artists and creatives, including YOU. Yes, literally you. Who: You, Me, & a...

Thanks to the hundreds of you who wrote in to take a stab at how the ballet image was made [note that this thumbnail here is a crop, not the final...go to the original post to see that one]. A handful of you nailed it to varying degrees. Here's my breakdown of shot: First, this was not a snapshot. Anything I'd list that would be of interest has been planned, choreographed Second, this image was...

If you've ever questioned the power of an image, consider the current news cycle. The US government has decided it won't show images of the dead Bin Laden. If you're wondering why, the answer is simple. A photograph--an image--is an incredibly powerful thing. It can be a tool, intentionally or incidentally. It can tell an entire story of a month, year, decade, or a generation, captured in perhaps just 1/1000 of a second. An image...

I learned to light after years of deconstructing the work of other photographers. And I know from your previous feedback that you guys are fond of these posts, so let’s dig into another one. How did I make this picture? Is it a lucky snapshot? Is it lit? If so, how? The camera Settings? The direction? Post production? Whatever details you think are needed to make this image. Looking forward to you trying to pick...

As the aftermath of the Japan earthquake and tsunami have fallen lower on the news-cycle, a group of committed artists, some friends of mine and a whole lotta people--Yoko Ono, William Gibson, Barry Eisler, Jake Adelstein, Kings of Leon and others--have stepped up to create 2:46 #Quakebook, a "rich collection of essays, artwork and photographs submitted by individuals around the world, including people who endured the disaster and journalists who covered it." Quakebook, started with...
