Ok, so, I've been really inconsistent with updating this blog. I'ma let y'all in on a little secret, though: the older you get, the more you have going on in life. Kinda like a video game. It just gets harder and harder and goes faster the longer you play. With that being said, I'm going to start doing an opening segment called From The Archives to showcase a ton of my older, lost work that I didn't have the wherewithal to archive when Blogger gave me the option. Also, to keep y'all updated on the audio version of the blog, that may take a little longer than I expected. We'll get there, don't worry. I'm just grateful some of y'all still like to read these days.
From The Archives:
First up is a monotone character from one of my small sketch books from around 2005. This was years before my first group exhibit when I was experimenting with different color combinations and subject matter. You can see the early influence of scifi, mechanical, and a little bit of disembodied horror themes seeping into the psyche. This outline more than likely went up on a wall somewhere to subsequently be buffed and lost forever.
To kick this episode off, here's a pro tip:
Especially in Florida...
You think that you've seen all of the jump scares that could possibly surprise you, but then you watch this...
Look, I don't know about the rest of y'all, but I don't think there is a soul out there tough enough not to wince at what happens in "that" scene in this movie. Serioulsy fam, WHAT?!
Speaking of wincing, I just got around to watching Terrifier 3 and I'll just say you better be watching this movie with a friend, otherwise you will be scarred for life:
The first two Terrifiers were an absolute homage to comedic bloodshed. Slasher fans everywhere praised it as a cult classic (still do), so when the third installment was released I figured there was no way they could up the sheer visceral mayhem that Art the Clown brings to the function. They most certainly did. If all out gore is your thing in horror films, you're going to have a blast watching this (you sicko).
What an exciting time we live in...
From Big Th!nk:
"The archaeologist Bernard Frischer developed a digital model of ancient Rome over almost three decades. Its most recent version, available on Yorescape, shows how the Eternal City developed over time. Viewing ancient Rome in a 3D space has allowed for discoveries that could not have been made otherwise."
You can't ever say you're bored anymore. Not while people are making 3D models of ancient cities for you to peruse like you're shopping for old real estate.
You're most definitely not going to be bored anymore once you listen to what these guys have to say:
Is it weird that the voice that I imagine narrates some of my actions is Louis CK's? Also, I met a blind racist lady the other day. These two things are not necessarily connected, btw. However, after watching the previous interview with Dr. Hoffman, I'm not so sure...
This is the best thing I've heard all year:

You have to be a lover of techno to understand that the previous segment is not related to anything or anyone hateful.
This next legend needs no introduction:
I can dig for decades and still not find all the good music I've missed because of the sheer volume of it out there. I don't need to say much about Jeff Mills, but I will say that I'm still heartbroken that I lost all of the cassette tapes I had of his underground mixes. Lucky for me, they're more than likely archived online somewhere so I should probably stop whining.
I was eating Chinese food the other day and I was wondering why they always give you multiple fortune cookies? Is it even possible to have multiple fortunes? Is only one of them true and the others lies? Do they even have the power to dictate my fortune? What are they doing, attaching Skittles to their knuckles and pretending to be Thanos?
...idk, but anyway I'm back on the grind in the am, so I'll take us out with a classic by the mighty Paradox. KEEP THOSE EYES OPEN.
