I think I've been easing in to this semester, but it's catching up to me now. It seems to be a balancing act between what I want to do and what I'm obliged to do, only everything I do fits in both of those categories. I'm blessed that way I suppose, and I'm certainly not bored. Art making is a hard thing to do, and I think I put a lot of pressure on myself. Actually I know I do, and I want it that way. Anyway, things are progressing, but it's difficult. I'd like to do more video work, but then time is suddenly an issue--what do the images do? Not to mention sound.
An another note, I've been enjoying a podcast called Escape Pod. Each week a new science fiction story is read. Science fiction is the kind of thing I'd love to read if I wasn't a student or wasn't guilting myself into reading art theory or something. But now I can listen to it on my way to school! Everybody wins! I loved a recent story called "The Team-Mate Reference Problem in Final-Stage Demon Confrontation." It reminded me of my adolescent days playing Doom II. In case you're wondering: No, I do not currently play Doom III. I saw a friend play it and it terrified me. The blocky pixels of Doom II seemed to provide a barrier between my impressionable young mind and what was supposed to be a twitching torso on a stake. No such barrier seems to exist in Doom III. Freaky.
Here's a few random images, because a blog post without pictures is like a hamburger without cheese:
i knew you were into RPGs -
I wandered across your painting studio the other day, at first I was confused as to why your studio was twice the size as everyone else's, but then someone pointed out that what I though was one person's studio was actually two. apparently the guy next to you really likes your style - enought emmulate almost exactly what you are doing. is my observation at all correct?
