The Highcoup Collective is an outlet for the expression of creative ideas via the lens' of the camera and the written word—a space where all men and women can come ride unicorns and slide down the rainbows of Interesting Stuff—a blog where your inner child can snatch-up and cuddle the teddy bears of Rad Ideas. Or just simply sit there, naked, in a pleather chair, and enjoy some funkycoldmedina.

Poetic Resurrection



This is a true classic. An example of when, I suggest, Hip-Hop music was the main vehicle of contemporary American poetry. Please take a few moments to listen.

There Will Be Blood

Here is a link to an online-version of one of my articles in Concrete Wave magazine. After clicking onto the link, type "52" into the page # box at the bottom left of the screen, and then press enter (sometimes twice). It is six pages in total.

My Roommate, Datty Boggiano


Here is a pic of my roommate Datty surfing without a kookcord, circa 1976. This break is called La Pampilla and it's in Lima, Peru. Datty informed me that this board was a killer 6'8" single-fin pintail with a winged backend that he used to love "stylin' the shred" up and down the Peruvian coastline. It is always nice to see a classic.

I've Been Pondering




I've been thinking about this here 1989 KLR 650. The price is right, but the color is a bit loud. Anyway, just though I'd share that with y'all. I can't wait to get a bike though. The plan, one that has been in the works for a year or two, is to gather the crew and breakout for the territories, but in reverse, and a lot later in time for that metaphor to be of prudent use. Anyway, the idea is a 9 day trip to Austin, Texas and the surrounding hill country--take pictures, skate, camp, BBQ, and sun-bath at some local swimmin' holes. I'm just 'bout ready y'all!
