The following three surfing videos are pure, analog art. Specks dancing with an animate mother nature. Beautiful. (more…)

While in San Diego recently, I went surfing for the first time. As my wife will tell you, I’m pretty proud of myself. Regrettably, I was unable to stand after two hours of riding. But I did get up on both knees a couple of times, so that was pretty cool. The score so far: Ocean 1, Blake 0. In any case, I’m totally taking up surfing as a hobby. Just need to find a nearby ocean.

I imagine this is what Brodhi looked like riding the fifty year storm in Point Break before drowning in peril. Amazing.
