Ok, I think I've made a discovery..here I was using Ask Jeeves to search stuff on Amanda Moore and I start reading this blog. http://www.betsramblings.blogspot.com/

Took me a while and I had a lot of time on my hand but I think this "AM" person that keeps popping up on the blog is Amanda Moore herself!! It talks about her pet dogs and some insight on what she's up to at the moment..It also gets updated quite regularly so save this to your favourites and read it! :)
 
im not much for blogs but if it has "AM" then i'll be down for reading it..i guess
even though the chick likes THE SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELLING PANTS
wtf?
 
ok so i read some and i thought it was pretty surprisingly entertaining and delightful
and if that really is Amanda Moore...then omg is that some hilarious stuff especially the stuff on alco.
 
I'm quite certain it is Amanda Moore because the author mentions her going to couture shows in Paris around July 2004. That post on september 28th 2004 is especially hilarious and witty. ;)

Though more than 40 years have passed since her death in 1961, experimental filmmaker Maya Deren remains a haunting, mesmeric figure. Beautiful, brilliant and doomed, Deren was a fixture of the Greenwich Village art scene throughout the 1940s and 50s, counting painter Marcel Duchamp, composer John Cage and writers Anais Nin and Henry Miller among her closest friends. Fans over the years have included architect Le Corbusier, critic James Agee, filmmaker David Lynch, and, more recently, fashion photographer Patric Shaw, who created a spread for the Italian magazine Flair inspired by scenes from two of Deren's films, At Land and Meshes of the Afternoon.

Shaw's images chronicled the adventures of model Amanda Moore, chosen in part for her resemblance to the filmmaker (in addition to directing, Deren was also usually the star of her film), leaping magically from a dark forest into a cabaret filled with stylish urbanites and then, apparently having her fill of glamorous nightlife, jumping back into the woods.

The scenes in nature are in vivid color and the scenes in the cabaret are either in black-and-white or muted, monochromatic tones, with some of the images showing Moore in transit, halfway between the color and black-and-white worlds. For help in pulling off this bit of surrealist sleight-of-hand, Shaw called in the retouchers of New York City' Shootdigital Studios.

Shaw had originally put together a hand-drawn storyboard of the series to show Flair's art director, Alex Gonzalez; the main cabaret image showed Moore/Deren sitting on a tabletop surrounded by other figures. This was shot with the model in a frosted wig and bustier, surrounded by a crowd of revelers, with Moore turning her face away from the group, eyes cast down. After reviewing the shot, however, Gonzalez suggested taking out all of the figures except for Moore and one seated man who sits gazing up at her, making the picture much less surreal and more sexual in nature.

Cirnigliaro placed the group shot on a layer and laid it over the solo image, then began erasing the right-hand side of the top layer to bring up the empty table and chairs on the image underneath. She could, though only fully erase two of the figures before she began uncovering the figure of Moore, who was positioned further to the right in the solo shot than in the one showing the group. The final figure of the woman at the table was removed by primarily using the cloning tool, cloning bits of the red velvet curtain background and laying them on top of her.

Fran, this blog is hilarious. I'm with you and think that it may just be Amanda. Plus the writer says that September 10 is AM's birthday and that's right isn't it?

The writer seems to be part of some sort of "in crowd" (LOL) just by the clubs they hang out in, going to Marija V's party, hanging out with Jeisa, etc. I love how "AM" brought over the Petron. :mowhawk:
