Welcome to Fantom Island, where iLL-Literacy's legend finds its habitat. If you've happened upon this portal, may we be as bold as to assert that nested in you is a healthy curiosity. Whether you were drawn here by the Slanted i at this page's 1-o-clock, the quick flash of during loading, or simply because you have a click-happy finger – you've arrived. HihowRUhi?
The peculiar thing about Fantom Island is that it is but a mirage – an Imaginary oasis isolated in the confines of our brainwaves. We shall gradually reveal morsels of our folklore here, so please visit often. To return, simply bring your Imagination as your passport.
Fantom Island
First moments in Hong Kong
I’M IN HONG KONG!!!!! The last two days have been a time warp. On Wednesday Dahlak and I scrambled for our big (temporary) Brooklyn exits. Dahlak’s spending a month and a half in Ithaca working on his new play and album, and I’m on the other side of the planet figuring shit out. It was 15 long hours on the flight, and now my timezone’s exactly 12 hours ahead. My AM is now my PM. And I’m dead exhausted.
I managed to zombie around Nathan Rd. (HK’s main street) and snap a couple of shots. And grab some shkrimp wonton noodles. Comfort food for my month of wandering.
