images



I love to play with images because they are not sound. This is a little play sketch.

New PIece



Somehow I was forced into creating a new piece this weekend. I was trying to relax on Friday and then I found myself in front of my computer synthesizing grains from FM synthesis at 11 at night. Not so wierd, but then at 4AM I finished and felt compelled to go over to school and assemble a piece out of them, so I did. At 11AM I finished that process. I went home and got a few hours of sleep in. At 3 Christine called to announce that she had found th perfect masks in AK and that we needed to make a decision so that Sunday was not booked. (We have been looking for 3 years and we were quite sure these are the perfect masks, yeah) This meant that I was back up, if not entirely braindead. I did some mundane life stuf like shopping and fueling the auto carrige Then went to sleep at 10 again. Today (Sunday) I wake up at 12 and after working with James Orsher on our set up for Wednesday nights performance of "Readings From the Beaches of Troy: An adaptation of The Trojan Women" I was back at it, so again tongight from 10 until 2 I worked on the new electronic piece. I have 2 more sessions and then I think it will be really tight (I am hoping that is!). If you are in town, come on out for the perfomance, it will be grand and there will be free wine!

7017 Aetna Court



The first house that I lived in while on this planet was 7017 Aetna Court. I compiled images of this home from Google's street view in photoshop. It was interesting to spend so much time with images of that place from the more recent future and superimpose the memories of that location. It was very striking to me that I recalled the texture of the grass, the angles of the concrete blocks, the way the clouds filled the sky and the way the light illuminated certain areas in a manner that is still very vivid.(it is all still very vivid) What is interesting is that this dwelling looks very different than when I occupied it. The color is different, there is a new fence, the driveway is paved differently, there is a porch in the front, where there was a room before and the trees are much larger.

33



My birthday occurred on 04.06.08 and I became 33, a day that I spent with my two twin nephews who are aged 3. And I even randomly found myself going to sleep on my birthday at 3:33AM entirely by coincidence. I sense that my passion for even numbers is shifting to encompass and possibly shifting toward a default to odd numbers, but this will take years.

drawings















I used to do a great deal of work that was perceivable with the eyes. I have not done that in a while.
