D is for Documentary
233 days ago · Sarah Lazarovic
Another screening of Mondo Condo, this time in Toronto on Thursday night, as part of the CFC's monthly World of Shorts program. Looks like a great bill. It includes Farewell Packets of Ten, a short I caught at last year's Worldwide Short Film Fest and loved. As well, I'm looking forward to seeing a bit of Brian Stockton's Saskatchewan Trilogy.
Here's the full rundown:
D is for Documentary
April is the month when Toronto gets doc-happy. Come and get your fill of short docs from Canada and beyond, featuring intricate sewn portraits in UNIVERSAL MOVEMENT MACHINE, a candid discussion on why two elderly Irish women can't give up smoking in FAREWELL PACKETS OF TEN and a very funny look at former US presidents special requirement light-weight summer trousers in FULL METAL SLACKS. Dont miss this documentary fiesta!

Screen Scene
Didn't want to post the yield of my screenprinting course until I knew pal Kristy had received the shirt I made her in the mail - nothing worse than a surprise ruined by indiscrete blogging!
More Miscellany
A handful of new portraits are up, though I'm still behind in my scannage. As well, I'm doing a new weekly city quiz cartoon for the Post Toronto section. Check it.
Bits and Bobbins
- Guess who's doing the music for our short film? A fabulous nonogenarian named Irving Fields. Check out his YouTube anthem.

Portrait Project
I'll be doing one portrait a day until I can't do one portrait a day anymore. Not allowed to spend more than an hour on each one.
Long Live Irony
This is my catch-all site - art projects, journalism, weird experiments, all founded in the general belief that irony is not dead, regardless of what Graydon Carter says.
A joint blog where me and the Mr. post our thoughts on fashion and design, and I chronicle my year of not shopping. (I've cheated once.)
The Portrait Gallery
The government has been all kinds of annoying when it comes to creating a respectable National Portrait Gallery of Canada. So we built one in our garage this summer!
