Patrick O'Dell: Epicly Later'd Book

Epicly Later'd
Patrick O'Dell

In 2004, well before the advent of social media as a global phenomenon, photographer Patrick O’Dell launched the celebrated blogEpicly Later’d. Dedicated to documenting the adventure and mayhem of the NYC skate/music/downtown scene, the site distinguished itself with its offhand wit, its irreverent cast of characters, and an intimate photo-diary format years ahead of its time. Nearly two decades later, the impact of O’Dell’s work can be appreciated in full: its influence is now apparent across photo, art, and skate culture, and the original photographs still astonish. Compiled by O’Dell and editor Jesse Pearson,Epicly Later’dcollects the best of the blog into a body of work that’s evocative, funny, and wildly compelling.

Patrick O’Dellis a photographer, photo editor, filmmaker, and skateboarder from Columbus, Ohio. In addition to the creation of the seminal photoblog Epicly Later’d, his work includes serving as a photographer forThrashermagazine and photo editor forVice. He also created and produced the webshow and television adaptations ofEpicly Later’d, and is an acclaimed director of music videos and the filmDumb: The Story of Big Brother Magazine.
