Michael Sporn Animation – Splog

- Well the Yankees were knocked out of the playoffs yesterday, so I decided to reminisce for the big winners ten years ago. That brings me to a big birthday party Heidi threw for me in my studio. It was a surprise to me even though it took place in my own studio, thanks to an evening class I taught, back then, at NYU.

A lot of people were there filling the rooms, and a lot of balloons bounced off the ceiling. Kit Hawkins travelled the room taking polaroids of the folk there, and I’m going to post some of those photos. Since color deterioration has started to set in, and since the lighting was horrible, I apologize to everyone in the photos below. I also apologize to those not in the photos. I have a lot of them, so there may be another day of this (if I weren’t lazy I would have posted them on Flicker, but I am; I like them here.)
