Too lazy to record a video.

So right now the exhibit is coming along well. Marcus Ranum is sending me some test rods to make a small test of the glass/wood combination. Mercedes is concerned the image will peel off so I’m going to construct a small test first. A little nervous about it all but I am just going to move forward as best as I can.

I’m moving forward with moving to Navarre in September. I am currently selling a bunch of stuff on eBay to raise money for furniture. I’m pretty nervous about not raising enough money but I hope it all goes well.

Watched The Losers the other night. It has a cliffhanger ending thats total bullshit. Other than that I haven’t seen much. I want to see Inception but I don’t have the money or time right now.

Musically, the Limousines are rocking my world right now. I’ve been a fan of theirs for about a year and their first album came out today. I listened to it all day non-stop and am still listening to it. I really dig it. I’ve also been back on Stars lately. They are supposed to perform in New Orleans in November so I am hoping to make that show with my best buddy Michele.

i believe I am in the Showcase this weekend for the Northwest Florida Daily News so keep an eye out for that.

Right now I’m just very stressed about moving. Its all such a big change. In the next 4 weeks I will selling a lot of my belongings, buying a car, and moving out of the house I have lived in since I was in middle school to live on my own. I know Im 25 and I should, but its still scary to me since I dont have a lot of support monetarily. Im really going out on my own.

I think it will be good for me though. That desperation and loneliness. I think it will be great for my art as well.

Very very early version of an Oil Spill piece I am doing.

Some of my guitar gear is now listed on eBay.

My latest piece, “Heart” is now finished and online in my portfolio.

“Heart” is inspired by the song of the same name by the band Stars. Heart features the beautiful Lori Trilone as the model. The background was made almost entirely using a Lite Brite.

I highly recommend downloading this movie. It’s free and it is a brilliant film that explores not only the mentality of big businesses but ways to fix problems in this world and approaches big businesses should take.

What it’s about…

From Vodo…

THE YES MEN FIX THE WORLD is a screwball true story about two gonzo political activists who, posing as top executives of giant corporations, lie their way into big business conferences and pull off the world’s most outrageous pranks. This peer-to-peer special edition of the film is unique: it is preceded by an EXCLUSIVE VIDEO of the Yes Men impersonating the United States Chamber of Commerce. Because the Yes Men are being sued for this stunt, p2p is the only way that this film will get seen. Please spread the word!

Here’s a track from the new Arcade Fire album, “The Suburbs.”

The new album is really awesome. Be sure to check it out.

Here’s a couple of quick snapshots from my cellphone from the NWFLAA board meeting earlier today. We had board members on Skype this time from their homes on the computer which worked very well.
