As long as the sun is up nothing can hurt me. #camcorder #minidv #poetry

It feels good to finally be here. #camcorder #poetry #poem #minidv #videopoetry

😂😂😂

Just got my first roll of super 8 back and whipped this up. #super8 #diary #poetry

He’s a mashup of all the micro poetry/diary films

“Sometimes I Feel Like Running Away From My Life.” #camcorder #digicam #minidv #ruminations

I’m not bipolar but… #camcorder #minidv #experimentalfilm

Here’s a little teaser for the new film I put on YouTube, “Everything Is Such A Pain In The Ass.” You can find it here… youtu.be/52DKAgOzIT0?... #diary #minidv #camcorder #detroit #hamtramck #analog

I’ll be up at the polka Sunday supporting Will and Malinda for their debut album release. There will be more zines from me perhaps??? #hamtramck #detroit

Any time tiny dancer comes on I just think Tony Danza

Here’s an excerpt from an issue of being alive. I don’t know what to call half this stuff. #poetry #diary #journal #zine #perzine #prose #prosepoem

Here’s a teaser for the short I’m putting out next month. I’m going to put longer form stuff on YouTube that’s lightly edited once a month over the summer, then make a feature out of it that’s way more edited. #experimentalfilm #diary #diaryfilm #minidv #digicam #camcorder

Here’s the final teaser/trailer for my new film “Jeff Spisak: The Movie.” I actually modified it since my last post a little. Tightened it up some and added light music to parts. This one won’t be on YouTube im trying to screen it. #experimentalfilm #diaryfilm #detroit #hamtramck #minidv #canonzr80

Finished the movie. Now I just have to look into screening the thing. For now here are some stills I pulled from the footage.

I’ve been walking around filming a little diary movie on this old mini dv camcorder of mine and it’s been a lot of fun. I’ve also always loved found footage flicks and this kind of has that feel. Here’s a teaser featuring some of what I’ve shot so far. #diary #minidv #canonzr80 #experimentalfilm

Here’s the opening to an experimental documentary I’m working on tentatively titled “Hamtramck: My (Almost) Midlife Crisis.” Figure if I put it out there I’ll have to hold myself accountable. #documentary #essayfilm #experimentalfilm #comedy

Another #polaroid this one is from a show called ghost night that @emilyrosemusic.bsky.social puts on several times a year. I removed the white parts of the frame on this version.

A Polaroid I took of Emily when we shot the John Prine promo. #polaroid #instantfilm

Post blowout hangover show in hamtramck. Might screen a few short films too. #hamtramck

Thank you!

My friend @jeffspisak.bsky.social has an envious body of work that you should listen to; it certainly lights a fire under my ass to write more songs.

Deepest Darkest Secrets 9 was the best one yet. Thanks to @markbolohan.bsky.social for kicking us off with a great set!

Next Deepest Darkest Secrets in Hamtramck at the Polka Dot Bar. March 6th at 9pm with @markbolohan.bsky.social

The third Being Alive is out now. I purchased a printer finally so I have lots of physical copies too. #zines #comics #detroit

Playing a show up at the ghost light in hamtramck next Saturday. Acoustic stuff it looks like. Part of me wants to get a loose band of teenagers together one day. I miss playing electric.

I was reading this thing about lust and desire earlier then I started thinking about past relationships and how they started and all that good stuff then jotted this down. After that I typed it up and decided I’ll throw her in the next zine. #zine #comics

Figured I’d start fooling around on the old YouTube again since I’ve been most successful on there. Trying to get a new series going. youtu.be/6zImtuAQyhU?...

I’ll be up at cafe 1923 in an hour lurking around, getting free drinks, selling zines, and playing awful music. Album cover by @emilyrosemusic.bsky.social #hamtramck #songwriter #zines
