Okay folks...here it is:

7 things I want to do before I die:
- travel to Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and Tonga (all in one long 3+ month trip)
- write/direct/star in a film or films
- speak at least 3 modern languages fluently (not including English), and get my Ancient Greek and Latin back up to snuff.
- sail around the Aegean and visit/camp...

haha.

well its that and I have one sibling, a sister, who is a total girly girl. I am not.

I was supposed to be a boy, or, rather, theywanted me to be. So I was raised to be the son that my father never had. And I love it. So I DO have bigger balls than most men, because not only do I act like a man sometimes, but I am also a woman. You know?
glassheart:
we see eye to eye on this.

weeee!!

okay, so I have been tagged by my roommate who apparently has a death wish if he is going to do this to me while I am trying to get ready to go out of town.

I do however think it is a pretty cool project, so I will try to finish it up before I leave, but no promises.

I think I just broke some sort of law of music...Lynyrd Skynyrd came on right after Bob Marley...but my computer didn't explode or anything, so it must be more of a musical infraction rather than a felony.

in other news, I am actually getting shit done today...yeah.

About my journal:

I have no fear of digital "media", in fact I use a lot of photoshop, and digital printing in my finished work, but only as another tool for the end product.

What I was talking about though was the influence that mass imagery has on any, and all images power as an individual entity. With so much work out there, not only art, in fact barely art, but rather imagery. With the ability to reproduce, mass produce, mass distribute, and create imagery so easily we have saturated the visual world with 2D imagery.

To the point where it makes one question the worth of any image.

For example, why create a beautiful drawing of a woman with tattoos, when I can come on here and see over seven hundred beautiful women with tattoos, all of which are "REAL" in that you know they exist with in our dimension?

Just to do it?

That's great, but it is more an exercise in technique and skill at that point and less about originality, and depth (the two most important aspects of art).

When the Greeks created their sculpture of Aphrodittee (sp), she was unique, she was alone in her beauty. She was physically impossible given the time period, yet insanely beautiful, an idol, an idol that grew into art. She was unique, and she had depth...


So I guess you could say it's more about the "images" power that I am worried about, and less about media. What is meaning, and does anything created in the 2D possess anything beyond being "just another picture?"

just thoughts, I struggle with it daily...

yeah...vodka martinis and philosophical discussions about dating...I love my life. What is even more impressive is my ability to spell post-drinking. Or not...please note all spelling errors in my journal so I can feel really embarrassed in the morning....

Thanks.

I have little to contribute to a discussion about dating, at this point - except to say that it's a shitty, messy game we've got to play. Not to imply it's a bad thing, just one with lots of fuzzy, gray areas and no rulebook.

dude I missed all you guys!
