Documentary
In the world of music, two artists follow unique paths. Mario DiSanto, an analog maestro, cherishes vintage gear and acoustic instruments, while Luci Fer, a digital prodigy, thrives on electronic beats and synthetic sounds.
Despite their differences, both share themes of passion, family, and artistry. Unbeknownst to them, their journeys are linked by a hidden thread.
Through unexpected events and shared experiences, they uncover a surprising connection that bridges their analog and digital worlds.
Resting Scary Face
In Brooklyn, New York, we meet Tyson Kimbrough, aka Resting Scary Face.
Fresh from releasing his album Do Not Perceive Me, Scary discusses his artistic journey, the inspiration behind his haunting music, and the challenges of staying anonymous in the vibrant music scene.
Coney Island
Known for its oddities, Coney Island is a magical place for Street Photography.
The Coney Island Lighthouse is on my radar, but instead I find myself in a tough situation climbing a rusted wall, avoiding the salt of the sea, and observing some strange people.
Liberty Island
In this Beatdown Rhythm episode, Mr. Robot meets with Decontee Tobias Williams, also known as Lord Daystar Shandala, to explore history, discuss philosophy, and capture our journey to Liberty Island through photography.
Photo Dispatch
On our way home from Printique (an Adorama Company) print lab to review our photo results shot from the Leica Q3 and Nikon Z8 cameras. 8×10 Luster paper. Let’s review and see how these turned out. Special cameo by John Turturro!
Tweed Tunnels
The WW1 Shooting Range Tweed Tunnels in Nyack, New York are located in Blauvelt State Park. They used to be a rifle range back in 1910, and these ruins of Camp Bluefield is all that remain. The tunnels were used to prevent the soldiers from catching a stray bullet as they ventured from one side of the range to the other.
Filled with graffiti, cave crickets, wolf spiders, and wildlife, the Tweed Tunnels are an interesting area to explore for photography.
East River
In this episode we get a strict warning from Grimace about surveillance cameras over at the East River Greenway in Manhattan, New York.
It’s Thanksgiving Day, and we take some underpass photos by FDR and focus on the sister bridges Manhattan & The Brooklyn. Join me for a quick photo walk this past Thanksgiving Day.
Protests
My first attempt at the Rockefeller Tree Lighting Ceremony failed—no backpacks allowed. Heading to 5th Ave, I stumbled upon a heated protest. Emotions ran high, and chaos ensued, but it was just another day capturing NYC’s raw energy through my lens.
Parade
It’s Thanksgiving Day in New York. We head over to Columbus Circle to watch the event unfold and maybe take a few photos of the character balloons. Here are all the major highlights from Grogu, Monkey D. Luffy, The cast of Good Burger 2, Jimmy Fallon and the Roots, and the Big Guy Santa Clause.
Chinatown
In our last episode we experienced some excitement in Brooklyn. This time we take a train to Soho and journey into the magical Chinatown for some Purple Yam.
Matilda Djerf makes an appearance. You will also see Butt Cracks and how to properly maintain the hygiene with Burt’s Bees, some local artists, models, and more.
NYPD
Another day in Brooklyn, NYC. Near Atlantic and Flatbush Avenues, large gatherings escalated, with reports of public school students fighting as the NYPD intervened.
A private school teacher shared insights, but I’m just a street photographer capturing raw moments. Watch the footage—this is New York.
