Using my Reflection

This is the process for the making of the gesture drawings that I'll be creating all month. The actual time was actually about 4 minutes. My aim is to reduce that time as I improve the lines and dr...

Also on the easel !

It’s been awhile since I’ve given an update on this piece. It’s a bit time consuming, but I’m inching my way there with the fountain pen an a new callous on my finger!

On the Easel

Today's gesture drawing. It feels nice to get charcoal to newsprint again! Of course, since I'm drawing my own reflection, it is going to be limiting.

On the easel

A gesture drawing in charcoal. The great benefit of college was that disciplines like gesture drawings were practiced regularly with a live model. Now, I am my own live model! The idea with this ki...

Sweater Season Jam

I continue to work with the kaossilator. I find that making music in this way is very rewarding. It will ultimately lead to a level of creative freedom for my videos. Meaning that every part of the...

Making the Music

Another behind the scenes peek! Earlier, I posted a video of me walking in the "Autumn Woods". When I got home, I made my own sound track to accompany the video. This is my process of listening to ...

Behind the scenes.

A behind the scenes peek! Not every idea I have is brilliantly thought through. Here, the aftermath of wearing my "Georgia Voter" stickers as pasties! Slow and steady is key....

Nipple Crack

My "old school" style advertisement for Nipple Crack brand nipple balm.
The finest nipple balm on the market.

If it isn't Nipple Crack, it probably sucks.

Electric Blue

This is a remix! Combining the elements of "Blue" from a few days ago, with an overlay of the electronic hourglass from today. It's always fun to think of new ways to use footage!

When the art show is over...

It got cold today! It was a reminder of continuous change: seasons, days, new beginnings and endings. The art show is over, so what's next?

In Progress

It’s coming along! With each soldered connection, I learn. I’ll have a completed electronic hourglass soon.

Slow Walk

Slowing down an autumn walk with some seasonally appropriate music. I saw a feral cat along the way. Can you see him? He doesn't seem to think so!

Slow Motion

Using the natural sound, but with an emphasis provided through sound filters in the editing process.

Happy Solderday!

Well, I finally broke down and committed to soldering some of the components for my electronic hourglass! Join me for my first soldered joint and see my progress for the day!

This is "Blue". Completed with original music by me! Created with my Korg Kaossilator2. Just a few weeks ago, I was completely uncomfortable at the prospect of creating my own soundtracks to go alo...

Work in Progress: Modification

I took some time to modify some existing pieces. Both are fine on their own, but I felt that the combination of the pieces was more powerful. Taking the NASA sign that I hand built, plus the prop I...

More Underground (Bonus Footage)

Underground Atlanta is definitely one of the strangest places. I would think that its strangeness would be attributed to the fact that it's over 200 hundred years old and underground. But that isn'...
