Grant Haffner and the ghost of Bridgehampton, soon to be seen in Escape From New York

Ah, a day in the Hamptons! You couldn't ask for more. (I even got to turn on an actual Dan Flavin work of art!!!) Grant Haffner's visit included a conspiracy video of the Norwegian vortex spiral, a childhood photo of him predicting he would one day be an artist, and the audial appearance in this video clip of the ghost of Bridgehampton-- (perhaps it's really Dan Flavin passing gas, as the pop-up note references.) Grant's work is a hyper-saturated exploration into a possible apocalyptic armageddon along the back roads of the Hamptons, his stomping ground. Either that, or it's like looking at the world through Billy Joel's wine-colored glasses. Visit http://escapefromnewyork.tumblr.com for more details!
