Marleigh's presentation, I loved it, she did a really good job. I've been shooting so much lately, I cant wait till the summer when I can fill my days with photo-takinnnng. I think this blog and my flickr are getting a little redundant, variation sometime soon.

Call, If you call my name.

I feel dry dry dry.
cracked. I crack
heads like eggs, searching inside. Take them and watch everything spill out. Hear you scream
I WANT I WANT I WANT
I see nerve endings and synapses and
science tells me

that these are emotions.
I kneel and I want to collect them
cultivate them and keep them like a bee-keeper.
Take them out and hear them buzzing, feel them

vibrating.
Memories sting
and sometimes
drip sweetly.

And maybe one day I will pick them out
take what they have made and I will eat it.
Neurons sparking beneath my tongue, warm summer nights sliding down my throat
along with the time you saw your mother cry,
and I will smile
but I'll still be dry dry dry.

Two Posts in one day! I thought I would post some shots from the last couple of days. Just go to my flickr. I am trying to do a set of photos everyday. A self-portrait or two along with anyone else I can snag.

The weather was so nice today! If slightly chilly.

Tattoo Ideas

Final Drawing Project. I chose my research topic, and I chose deer (you can tell I put a lot of thought process into it.) And I was stuck, I didn't to do the symolism of deer because i felt it would be to cheesy. So I learned that the stag in Christian art can be a symbol of ressurection and decided to take it literally. Put deer heads on religious figures. I also wanted to make it look like it was vandalized, so I drew Byzantine era images and then painted some deer heads and stuck them on there. They are really funny looking, I laughed as soon as I stuck the heads on them. I got a good response during critique and my teacher really liked them. So do I hear A+? I hope so.

I think i'm going to go crazzzzy. Final projects are intense. But after this I'm done for a month! Except I have a lot of my own personal projects to do, so no break for me really. At least I'll get to sleep in.
These are the two final stop animations I did, It took awhile because I had to edit each fram individually but it was worth it. They were based on a film by John and Yoko Ono that I watched called "Rape" (it's not what you think.) You can watch it here It's a bit long but I watched the whole thing and didn't mean to, it's really intriguing, and it makes you a little uncomfortable.

(Youtube fucked up te quality really bad, but what can you expect.Oh, and turn your sound on)

I need

a serious adjustment. It's funny how I believe in going after, working hard,and pursuing anything in life minus one aspect. I don't expect you to just fall into my lap, nothing happens that way I know that, I believe that, but it's funny how I let all of you just slip out of my fingers. Maybe because I didn't like you, maybe because I was scared. I don't want to be put into a position where a person can hold onto or destroy my happiness. I don't like being that out of control.

Just a thought.
