same day different post

its about this guy who amidst his rather care free life of socializing and sipping on beverages, is secretly building a life size rocket ship out of cardboard in a large warehouse in the center of portland, oregon.

as coleman would surely ask, "so what?"

and to this i would reply.

"the significance of this piece is in the juxtaposition between the rather hefty undertaking of building a life size "non operational" cardboard rocket ship while existing in a calm and content state. His life does not demand this extra curricular activity.In fact, he would be well enough to go on eating and being merry if there were not deep inside him, slowly crusting over with complacency the low burning desire to progress beyond his current spiritual state. while he in no time during the process visually appears to struggle, it is the mere act of creation that is the struggle itself. as the film progresses and the ship nears completion, we see no change in him.

the interesting element of this piece will be to see how the artist progresses mentally/spiritually/physically through the building of the ship. and finally upon completing it, will he in fact have changed?"

today is a glorious day

it has been far to long since my last post. its true. years.
so here i am. blogging. what to say?

lets try this:

im working on a new project. i dont know why i just am. perhaps to better my skills at screen writing. perhaps to finally do what ive wanted for so long: shoot a video in the warehouse. what does it say? what does it mean? how do i feel? you know i cannot answer these questions. and yet it's art so i should know. but i dont. as per usual. so instead i will clunk along up the hill on my little metal track toiling away at another meaningless piece of art so that when it come to its fruition, for a brief second the clouds in my mind will part and i will be bathed in glorious mind sunshine and go, "ahhhhhhhhh, that's right. Now i remeber." before i forget.
