me, 2.0: jose nazario
beauty and the street
vegas goth
the semi-gothic nature of vegas is an interesting juxtoposition. you have
kids who are all neo-goth and fake goth coming into vegas for defcon,
wearing black trenchcoats and boots in 104 degree heat and direct sun.
people who don't normally see the sun don't seem to understand its effects.
me, i like some of the statues up at caesars. i don't much care for the
hotel as a whole, or even the city. but every now and then you get a view
of a picture that you enjoy. there aren't too many striking photo opportunities
in vegas, the city is so squalid and disgusting, quite tacky, and rather
unpleasant overall.
while cities like rome and petra have decayed into beauty, they did so
by defining style and architecture and being built well. vegas will
cumble into the desert and litter it with plastic and crap. these
statues wont last the decade, i expect, before they're torn down and
rebuilt.
sad. and here's vegas, a cheap attempt at looking like the cities of old.
