Asger Carlsen's Mind Bending Photographs
We visit Asger Carlsen in his studio in Chinatown and talk to him about his life, his work, and why he is a lazy artist who is obsessed with making art. To get a closer look at his creative process, we follow him as he photographs a model in his studio, and we chat about his recent collaboration with Roger Ballen for the 2013 VICE Photo Issue.

Africa's Cowboy Capitalists (Full Length)
For maverick entrepreneur Ian Cox, Africa is the last frontier of free enterprise. The former small-time hustler has been busting his ass on the continent for years, selling and moving merchandise. In 2012 he nabbed a lucrative United Nations contract to transport equipment from South Africa to South Sudan, a country on many countries' embargo list. The other problem: the journey north entails passing through countless checkpoints and dealing with bribe-happy officials and their nonsensical paperwork and regulations.
Photographer and filmmaker Tim Freccia followed around Ian and the guys he hired for this job. "Cowboy Capitalists" documents their attempts to navigate the continent's dangerous roads and bureaucratic chaos.

Mixing Photography and Sculpture w/ Osang Gwon
