the image in mine is taken from the album cover of 'on the shore', a folk album released in 1970 by a band called 'Trees'.

Someone from my class brought their camera when we went to Josheua Tree, CA.
He posted the pictures online somewhere, and I decided to take a few and change them to look more BOC-ish.
View the whole series if you'd like.

Mine came from Lali Puna, sort of. There was a thread where we were asked to identify a song someone had found. In my efforts to figure it out, I had noticed this picture pop up in my media player, despite a total lack of other info. After I figured out it was Lali Puna - Awaiting an Accident (Remix for Boom Bip), I decided that wherever the picture came from, it would make a good Twoism avatar.

Changed my avatar to showcase my friend Chris' latest work as a photographer. His first experiment with photographing smoke. Think you'll agree it looks pretty cool..

Happy to oblige. He has a Flickr page I think too. He's kind of starting out at the moment, but thought this looked awesome...

Oh nice cupz.

OK, so I'm dropping the smoke photo. My friend Chris gave me the all clear to use it but I figure it's his image really.

So my new one is a photo of myself on my home beach in Northumberland, England. Kinda nice accident in that it looks a little surreal with the light in completely the wrong (or right?) place... Man I miss home sometimes.

it's a photo i took on my shroomy camping trip on the north shore of lake superior (in which i camped on a 200 ft cliff one windy night) and am using currently for the background of my band's new website. i may use it for my next album artwork.
