Do You Know about Pizza School?!

I have made an important personal discovery.

It is PIzza School.

Do you have one in your neighborhood? I bet you do. They're found only in the "동네", or in the 'hood, so to speak. You probably won't find one in a high-rent district, because of the nature of this particular beast.

Cheese, combination, or pepperoni pizza? 5,000.
More complex ones? From 6-9,000.

And they're about the size of a frozen pizza you'd get back in the US, but thinner crust and freshly-baked.

Do the math! Last night I had an impromptu DVD party that had about 8 people in attendance. We ordered 6 assorted Pizza School pizzas with a few drinks and extras.

Came to around 4,000 won a person, mang!

Do yourself a favor. Pizza School, tonight.

"Why Be Critical?"

  • Before you say this site is "anti-Korean" or bashing Korea – read this: "Why Be Critical?" Chances are, if you're simply angry because I am a social critic in Korea but not actually Korean, see if your argument isn't just a kneejerk response that follows these patterns.

Photo Classes!

  • Session 1: Just the Basics Dealing with the basic operations and functions of your DSLR, explaining each function, button, and doo-hickey. The bulk of the session is likely going to stick around the relationship between aperture and shutter, as well as depth-of-field. Basically everything on your camera has something to do with this relationship.

    Session 2: Composition and Shooting (Shooting Session 1) We'll take those examples and look at them on the big screen, while also answering the concrete questions that will pop up about the stuff we learned before. Then we'll talk about composition and other framing issues, including lens lengths and why some lenses are worth $100 bucks and some are worth $10,000.

    Session 3: Flashes and Advanced Exposure (Shooting Session 2) Dealing with flash, in terms of compensating above and below exposure levels (bracketing), as well as other bracketing techniques in general.

    Session 4: Final Session/Critiques Keeping it open, determined by the class.

    Four 3-hour sessions, as well as shooting sessions, photo discussions, and critiques. An individual photo essay will also be done as part of the ongoing class assignments. Inquire at the email address at the top right of this page.
