JEFF FRIBOURG

Driving the disconnect between photographers and the road.:AN INTERVIEW

Jeff Fribourg such got an article in vice magazine, everyones super ampt for him. Heres a little con-versation we had together at the Broom Factory. Hanging on a plush velour sofa, in a warehouse that has a uniquely unfinished, con-stantly moving vibe, yet very much a homey feel. CHeck out the the issue of Vice, go to more shows and travel. Jeff is a freelance photogra-pher, raised in El Segundo.

Conversation with rooster

r: I guess i want to talk about LA days. Kind of like when i joined you on one of adventures driving around meeting people.

J: Thats LA you cant avoid traveling a hundred thousand miles and then go home. its inevitable in Los Ageleswe went to holly wood then to fairfax

r: what did we do in hollywood.

i went to meet up with the dudes from al-tamont odd future wolf gang thing thats another big thing in LAthats across town i cant get therepeople are flaky in LA

r: i like the 20 min thing here

I will be there in 20 minutes, which turns into 40

from faifax to downtown to universal studios and then back to inglewood.I passed out and i still neede to go to culver sity and from culver city i had to go to el seguedo

I was working for patrick odell . actually it was the first time i met himI was living in holywood at the time

From there we went to sunvalley drove around there ended up at mount wahingtonclear to like the very tip of the border of la county to el seguedo

It takes so long to get anywhere

R: how many communities do you think in between one spot to another

Oh shit.. hundreds.

I would ride through so much, i would see much,see so many things i would start of in hollywood and see big hotels. asshole drivers, there everywhere i guess. then drive through little communities, mom and pop types where there driving there kids to schoolthen id end up at the coast. you go through some poverty areas. end up in an asian influence area, into hispanic, then rich white people homes then at the beach. each time you go anywhere the ride back is totally different.

r:if you don't take the freeway

Put in an extra 20 ft and put a bike lane, Then you could ride freeway routes. but then of coarse its not as fun

r:i was driving throughout the back roads of echo park and then its like being on a movie set. Old ladies walking their dogs, kids skate-boarding in the street. All of a sudden…BOOM the streets are active and alive.

echo park was really coolif you go to time warp music, the shows there are pretty sweet. then you go over to the bi-cycle kitchen. separated by the bicycle kitchen, goes from rocknroll vide, to bicycle nerd then you move over one more block and theres theta drunk metal dudes. I don't know what happens after that. after that its the liquor store and the donut shop

r: Donuts and liquor..the staple of the corner. Sometimes its gas station across from a grocery mart.

Right between echopark and down-town its like that

Pay 7 dollars, an arm, a leg, your first born child all for a drop of gas. or you drive a few miles to sunset and al-varado. its cheep but its no that cheep.

LA is the home of inconsistent gas prices. its its own thing i don't know how it works.

For instance theres a shell and arco. You go two block down and theres an Arco thats cheap as fuck. Last time I saw it it was 20 cents less. Last time it was $3.89 then $3.66. Its like…Oh shit I need gas. Cool right there across the street. Now i don't have money for the rest of the month.. You drive three blocks down and your like what the fuck! This gas is so much cheeper.

Cigarrettes are like that too.cigarettes i bought a carton before going to new york. Cause idont know what the duck…14 dollars a pack. i saw someone through out a half smoke cigarretee. and was like what the fuck.

Walgreens is pretty good for ciga-rettes. you go to rite aid 650/ 7 bucks a pack

I saved a few bucks… least i don't pay 14 dollars a pack.

r: you just got back from new york.

“PAy 7 DOLLARS, AN ARM, A LEg, yOuR fIRST BORN ChILD! ALL fOR A DROP Of gAS.”

People moving…a bunch of busy ants working their asses off.

r: It looks a little like that over by ucla. over on corner, by wilshire

Theres all those office buildings and no where to park.I don't know… what I would say LA in com-parison to New York…maybe say Brooklyn.The community of New York is everyone… Then I didn't see all of it. The city of New York is crazy.Everything there is city…well Manhattan.I stayed in the city one night and then in the suburbs for the most of it

r: unlike Los Angeles with no centralized city with suburbs dispersed between.

I'm used to LA, every thing is relaxed.Not that theres nothing going on here…Just cause your across the county

I don't even know what I was saying anymore!

That's another great thing about LA!You don't even have to remember what your trying to say. come up with an idea to pitch, jump in the car and have come up with a totally new idea to pitch

r:Do you think that the drive time provides you with that type of opportunity

if you have slept through your alarm you are beyond late20 minutes late means your an hour late.

r: I used to drive from the valley to the west side, get up super early, just so I could beat traffic and go back to sleep.

I used to do that.I would leave at 630 to get to a meeting by 9

Im glad this is the only place that has a 405.Oh my God… its the epitome.I'd rather deal with gangs then the 405.shit we got MS13 here.I moved into an MS13 neighborhood with out even knowing it. They took over this garage of this place in Echopark.They just started padlocking it andthe land lord kind of just let it go.I don't know… I wouldn't just give it up like that.

LA has this weird sense of communityyou meet someone, who introduced you to someone else you all stay connected, through the internet or through passing. Like right now I'm responding to an email from someone I met a year ago. She's like, "Hey I heard you moved off of Crenshaw?"

Hey hows it going, what are you doing in At-lanta. She's working I guess

you know los angeles

I know LA like the back of my hand.. If they pull my heart out of chest it will be dodger shaped! what was your largest culture shock?

Public transportation that works.Then of coarse I thought that about SF.

No one uses bikes people that I sawpeople i knew weed ride bikes clear across the cityhe's living in ny and he doesn't have a bikedude I would much rather have a bike hereNew York is a grid.Its really confusing grid.Well No… its a really simple grid.

r: Well, there stacked up on top of each other. We are so spread out we don't even want to be near each other. I want to be inside my bubble car.

Don't get near me! Its really weird.New York the shock for me. LA there is 2 paces of people there is California slow and then there is business man, been cheating on my wife, late for this meeting speedNew York starts off at cheating on my wife pace

LA! No one walks and if you do walk to the nearest donut store your cruis-ing.your pacing your self

New York time lapses of a New York corner.

I think LA will always be my home… I don't think there's anything like it. Theres no other place like home.

City hall is infested with giant cockroaches. You look down and the ground was moving. We where at Occupy LA and we still slept on the floor.

Iv'e never known a city like LA.

I woke up to pouring rain. Came in
