NYLON + Andy Warhol

while on twitter,

i found out

via NYLON's tweet

that there was a DIY warhol screen test you can do.

it emulates warhol when he did screen tests

and it couldn't be any more simple:

create a video of yourself staring at a camera for 90 seconds

and download it to their group on flickr.

and it'll end up on the site for the museum of modern art!

voila!

it sounds bland and uninteresting,

until you read more about it.

allll told and instructions on this site

and NYLON shared from here

a little uncomfortable, i suppose

(but vulnerability was a goal for warhol

and these screen tests)

so give it a shot, i'll do mine someday.

here's a screen test of Edie,
warhol's muse.
"It" girls fascinate me as well.


the ones by NYLON's definition
when they have their own unique subdued beauty
that glows humbly.

*note: i believe his screen tests were made to be muted for more vulnerability...the song was added. mute it for a better affect
