snail trail

Semâ Bekirovic "Grid"
video ( 19:00)
I let three snails make a drawing by making them crawl over a grid I drew on a piece of paper. Their slime-trails dissolved the ink of my drawing, creating an abstract figure.

A great piece by an artist that tickles my brain and leaves me with creative snail trail.

ladders & boxes

Less:

We still have a long way to go before I feel settled in the new house.
I'm really wishing I had some of those snazzy Bewitched powers right about now.
The best part about moving is redecorating and art buying.
One of the first things I plan on doing for the new house is commissioning a neon prop ladder inspired by Ben Jones, but first my sexy step ladder and cardboard boxes need to vacate.

A funny thing to do is, if you're out hiking and your friend gets bitten by a poisonous snake, tell him you're going to go for help, then go about ten feet and pretend that *you* got bit by a snake. Then start an argument with him about who's going to go get help. A lot of guys will start crying. That's why it makes you feel good when you tell them it was just a joke.

I'm no where near as in love with music as my boyfriend is. I can gladly sit in silence and stalk the interenets, whereas dead silence bothers him. Sometimes my drive home is talk radio, other times just might thoughts. I think he borders an obsession with sound. What I am loving right now is Jennie's works based on listening, music and concepts of audio.

house on the brain

ryan dodgson, one of my favorite illustrators

I'm house hunting yet again. We haven't found the right nest and I'm getting antsy. We have 1 month left until we have to leave the little box. After the great flood we were in a search frenzy, but we put those plans on hold after a few things happened. Now it's on and I'm not excited about it. Me and the misters both want a lot for our money but have yet to find something that titillates and satisfies our needs. I just want to send this shot to a Realtor:
