i am apparently officially the worst blogger ever… where did these past months go? today i actually remembered that i’m supposed to have a blog. i’m going to have to rethink this when i get home… right now i’m in london, getting ready to depart, and then i’m going to rome, in preparation for my trip back to the states. i can’t beleive so much time has passed. i’m not ready to go home. i’m going to have to blog about stuff, at least my latest trip after i left rome - once i get back to my laptop, and upload some pictures.  i don’t know when the internet became so incongruous with traveling. my one regret is not taking my laptop on this part of my trip. sitting here thinking and imagining what it’s going to be like when i get home feels like a total mind trip, but here are some rough shapes to grab at…

new animal collective! so good! if you can’t find a link online, i’ll email it to you. hooray!

this morning i spent four hours curled up in a tiny ball inside my bed pretending that i didn’t exist. right now i’m at the library curating a fake exhibition entitled “the bermuda triangle of your nightmares.”ps. i’ve been blogging at a different blog lately. shh. 

A CALL INTO THE ENDLESS DARK TUNNEL NOTHING OF THE INTERNET: 

OPEN-SOURCE MICRO VOMIT. 

so ya, i’ll tell ya. 88boadrum tomorrow.leaving for rome soon.i’m waiting for my life to change. 

went and saw sonic youth and the feelies for the fourth yesterday, which was very enjoyable. join twitter and let me know yr username. i’m working on a summer mix (tape) and it’s going to be good. evolving naturally. summer is my favorite. i will enjoy being lost soon.

if i haven’t seen you in a while, gimme a call. let’s get together sometime.

I have also grown tired of getting jerked around by people trying to take advantage of me. People continue to amaze and dissappoint me with their rudeness and disrespect.

Been working remotely on my parent’s website all day using Fugu, which is pretty fun overall and makes life a lot easier. moved into my new place in west philly, which has an air conditioner and a window-bench thing where i can sit and watch people by the street. despite there being 12 bedrooms in this house, i’m pretty sure only 2 other people will be living here for the summer.  best fest was also very nice. show at pifas tonight maybe. summer is nice.  

cleaning off the computer in nj, some things i refound.

quote in a text file from a short story

“In this moment she felt that she had been robbed of an enormous number of valuable things, whether material or intangible: things lost or broken by her own fualt, things she had forgotten and left in houses when she moved: books borrowed from her and not returned, journeys she had planned and had not made, words she had waited to hear spoken to her and had not heard, and the words she had meant to answer with; bitter alternatives and intolerable substitutes worse than nothing, and yet inescapable: the long patient suffering of dying friendships and the dark inexplicable death of love — all that she had had, and all that she missed, were lost together, and were twice lost in this landslide of remembered losses. “

HAY GUYZso there are a whole bunch of new video posts below… i just cross-posted them from my blip upload so they aren’t all in order so DEAL! anyway, new items include:

1- mouthing
2- welcome to my fort - split in four parts in order to upload it, plz watch in numerical order, and there is also included “fort view” which is just documentation of the installation so you can get a general sense of the way it was set up.

schools done! i just need to go to tyler one day this week to reclaim my printmaking screens and bring home some artwork and return my library books.

longer post later maybes, for now im just gonna watch the minutemen on sundance and eat baked ziti for breakfast and just have a nice day off. hope the same for you! 

the morning, i have spent
sprawled on the mattress, belly down,
contemplating
the discovery of spaces in which i feel content, at ease, and happy
the enjoyment white spaces
this in relation to the ultimate, the gallery
architecture and molding,
spaces for breathing,
the horizon.

i hope not to make mistakes in choosing my surroundings again, to devalue the importance of sunlight. i’m learning to trash. clear spaces clear minds.

so, here is my new haircut. warning to anyone in philadelphia: i strongly recommend you never ever go to chop shop. that being said, this is my hair after my second, damage-control haircut which turned out very nicely i think.

excited that summer is so soon. built a 4-frequency icosahedron which turned out pretty cool. tomorrow i am silk screening my final, which is tentatively an awesome, mailable gift for friends. (MAILABLE!!) if so, i don’t wanna spoil the surprise.

after that, i’m so close to done. chem final on thursday, math final the monday following. other than that i just need to post my vids to the tyler video blog! ( TYLERVIDEO.BLOGSPOT.COM )

now i’m at my house for the first time in a while, gonna work on my print final some and maybe clean up a bit. i’ve been taking some photos on a disposable camera which is almost full, so maybe i’ll develop that soon. now that summer’s practically here, i’ll have much more time for things of that nature.

i also discovered on my camera today some old john shade pictures from jamnesty, so might flickr some of em.
