smells like wasted youth
“you wander only when you wanna be found”
“I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed my madness, starving hysterical naked,
dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix…”
(Howl, A. Ginsberg)
This character is slightly different from all the others; it is about myself so I am not the one taking the photographs for once. It’s still all analog. I have chosen to put myself directly in the project because Effy is a link to all the following characters. Or I might only be pretty egocentric.
