*update: the boys swept every category they were nominated for.

this is what it looks like when nice people succeed. could not be happier or prouder for my good friends PETER FRANCO + TODD EDWARDS for all their hard work + expert musicianship being honored with nominations tonight at the 56th GRAMMY awards for their contributions on the DAFT PUNK record RANDOM ACCESS MEMORIES.

and of course, to the robots themselves + another collaborator, DJ FALCON aka STÉPHANE QUÊME, congratulations. get ready to party our asses off tonight boys!

i’ve been hibernating for the past few weeks, working on an upcoming exhibition + book. but i did manage to sneak away for a new year’s celebrating with these noodles, ALEXIS + TODD.

couldn’t be prouder of TODD for his grammy nomination + the rest of the team behind the RANDOM ACCESS MEMORIES record.

thanks RONY for this last photo of 2013.

a few days later i used the dual excuse of finishing my disposable camera + seeing this dear friend before his move to NY to grant myself another leave from the edit bay.

it was the ideal respite from work with MATT + NATE (working the camera + sadly not picture). thanks for bringing me out, boys.
