collaboration

I would like to discus on my thoughts on collaborating art or performances. I loves it!
I think it’s a great way to open your mind to different ideas besides your own and work on making a unison piece of work. I feel that with my work I am always collaborating being with big medium or a group project, but even in my own personal work,like my self-portraits. I relate to things and events that I experience in that past and when I do a piece I feel the people who I interacted with help me out when doing a self portrait and I see it as a collaboration, there might not be in the video or helped out in the technical way but our experiences are what help me do my work.

Inland Empire

David lynches movie inland empire, is a special kind of film that every time you watch it you can learn something new about the film. There are several plots happening all at once that are not common subjects that can lead the mind to a state of “what the fuck” it indeed is a hard movie to watch specially when as a viewer you keep getting lost in the film, I would find my self thinking and previous scenes and trying to keep up with what was happening at that moment. But nevertheless Inland empire has inspired me in some of my photo work and going for the whole “WTF” feel and awkwardness and from a video point of view the shooting and the colors in the film are really creative and attractive to my taste of color.

HEy yo


well i do not know if many of you kids know but, baby aly aka alyosha dotson purchased a numark VJ thingy magig and will be using it in tonight's BIG MEDIUM performance .

the inspiration for purchasing the video mixing came from leslie, when se decided to show us her equipment, and a string of inspiration came rushing throw me, and i am really excited to work with it and collaborate with my friends in visual and audio projects.

lynchian


this is my idea of lynchian since i couldn't put it in words i took a picture of it.

akward

i just want to confess that for the past week and a half i have stoped my addiction for gossip news and that resulted in me having a dream of me and bittney spears hangging out in her car and listening to her sing her own songs that came up on the radio. i think brittney misses me reading about her.

Negative land

On april the 17th Utah mike and myself went on an adventurous roadtrip to swamptown Houston to see negastive land.
The show was really intresting and inspiering. the poreformance consited of a radio show dealing with topics of religion and evolution and bummy subjects like 9/11. The poreformance dealt with the use of crazy equpment ranging from electrice razors to dj tables and this nifty thing that consists of knobs that when turn creat unusual noises. To me the show seemed more like a preformance art than a actuall music show. it was great.
