No! No! This NEEDS to be seen!

I posted this on the Facebook Machine yesterday. Didn't get a lot of feedback. And I'm not posting it IN ORDER to get feedback, but I really REALLY feel strongly about people seeing this. So I'm posting it again. Over here. On Blogger. Which I really only rarely use.

It's a weird video. I'll be the first to say that. This gal posts posts in which she doodles math, basically. And she's a 'personality.' And her singing is weird. But this post is FASCINATING. She talks about modernist composers use of 12 tonal scales (is that the right word?) and what that has to do with art, creativity, math, pattern recognition. All the interesting stuff!

So watch it. Or don't! See if I care.


Don't wanna watch that? Fine. I bet you'll watch this nonsense.


(Oh Jack Black, I can't stay mad at you.)

Way back in the day...

Once upon a time in 1983... I was 4 years old. I actually remember painting this. Inspired by Jackson Pollock of course. I was talking with my Visiting Teachee (Mormon Speak) about how our personalities are innate. I have always always been drawn to art. It's just weird that I didn't realize that was a key part of my personality. (I'm a little slow at times). If I wrote in my journal I would often illustrate the events, but mostly it was just pictures.

This is an elephant and a very large tulip that I drew in 1rst grade.


Here's the weirdest drawing I found. (Age 8)Heehee. It cracks me up. My drawing of God has noodle arms... so that is a bit peculiar. But it's always reassuring to know that God is better than gold.

Anyway, a bit of shameless self-promotion, I just set up shop with some t-shirts and stuff of my work. You can click the link in the side-bar if you're interested.

The end.
