The following is One Day NY’s first collaboration outside of skating with our good friend Suede Jury and The Brooklyn Good Guys. This video serves to give you a glimpse into the rest of a great compilation called Dreamers Block by BK native, Suede Jury. Check out Dreamers Block at:

A few words with Suede Jury about this project:

“My only hope is that this album makes you all muse a bit while you nod your head, and appreciate the range of expressive artistry available within the medium of hiphop. Dreamer’s Block was the product of determination, genuine enjoyment, and quarter-life crisis stress. I literally felt my artistic contribution was largely hypothetical and/or obscure up to this point; this album was years in the making. I owed this album to myself & to the universe. Dreamer’s Block is about triumph and struggle, and about zooming in on the nuances of life. It is for anyone who ever felt like they weren’t living up to their potential, and for everyone who self-motivated their way past that stage and onto the stage where they truly belonged.”

I’m happy to welcome Ryan Loewy to the OD Crew. I’ve been trying to build ODNY as a collective of people with aims to achieve quality in the areas of skating, design, photograhpy, video, and apparel since 2006. With my obligations increasing dramatically since then, It’s impossible for me to run all aspects of the brand and site at this point by myself. Especially with my primary focus being apparel and making edits on the OD site. That being said, I couldn’t think of anyone better than Ryan to help out with this large task of capturing our NYC scene. His work is amazing and he’s been a prominent photographer in our scene for some time. Small contributions of his include covering most skate events and shooting photos with locals when ever he can. He also helps out other NYC outlets by spreading the word on the latest NYC content on be-mag.com. He’s been a contributor to be-mag for a while now and has even contributed to I Roll NY and Skatelife which is great. Be on the look out for his photography here on the OD site or his ramblings on the Daily Grind blog! I trust he will bring some killer stuff to the table.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with Ryan’s work, I leave you with a few stills of Ryan’s latest project entitled: NY Rollerbladers. His aim is to capture every skater in the city! Gotta catch ’em all!

You can view more of these bomb shots on Ryan’s Tumblr. Drop a comment to share your thoughts or email Ryan personally at: loewy@onedayny.com.

Dominik Wagner: Eating at Brooklyn diner. Photo By: David Toro

Dominik Wagner sent us a link via Facebook, showcasing his thesis project entitled: Wasteland. A series of shots captured to bring the lifestyle of skating through Dominik’s eyes. These photos came to be during Dom’s stay in NYC a few months back. Aside from being a very talented skater, he’s also doubles as a very gifted photographer.

From skating road rash, rolling “cleanliness”, and eclectic personalities, these photos capture it all. These photos of skating and everyday routines, really come to light through D-wags photography by setting the tone and bringing forth composition and texture to give you a sense of the daily culture and characters that are part of our scene. Dominik was awesome enough to talk about his latest project with us. This book marks Dom’s graduation from Lette-Verein Berlin where he is now certified as a photodesigner. He will actually be coming back to NYC on a six month photography internship this summer.

Wasteland is currently in the process of being published: more info coming soon.

Click below to see what Dom had to say in regards to his latest project as well as some photos of a recent gallery that Dom had the pleasure of having his work displayed in.
