I’ve been having trouble with my internet in the room and complained multiple times to the hotel. They sent their engineer up–who announced as he came into the room, “I’m not particularly computer savvy.” Oh, how true that was. He poked at buttons on the computer and said, “I’ll have to close these windows,” and […]

Jæja, I’m sitting in the airport waiting for my flight to leave to the U.S. People keep asking me if I’m excited to be going home and I keep saying, “No.” Don’t get me wrong. There are people that I’m very much looking forward to seeing and things that I’ve missed about Portland, but sometime

It turns out that the reason I lost power yesterday was because the glue gun spontaneously developed a short. I blew power again today when I started installing the jaw. I’m off to buy a new one now. Grr. Edited to add: Hurrah! The company runner is going to pick up a new glue gun
An artist just asked me, “Is there anything you’re particularly fond of, any imagery that your magazine leans towards?” Why, yes! Thank you for asking. If we start with the belief that one is submitting work that is well-rendered, with an understanding of composition, or, as Beth puts it, art that is not lame, then

Round two of fiberglassing the bear went much better. The glass on thmpts in the morning after he left so the fumes would have a chance to dissapate. This is way I was not going to do the fiberglass work at the workshop. Today I did the last of the fiberglassing for an audience of

This comes via :: Douglas Rushkoff’s weblog I hope people I’ve inspired with my work would band together to help me out in my later years if I needed it. Which is at least part of the reason why I’m sending what I can to support cosmic thinking patriarch Robert Anton Wilson, whose infirmity and
