Water floats around my head


Water floats around my head


Clouds move in and hide the sun


 


I close my eyes and take a breath


A lark is singing overhead


You say "Yes, we're sinking now,


But can you hear that wondrous sound?"


 


Ooh


We're sinking now


We're sinking down


We're sinking now


We're sinking down


 


I close my eyes for one last breath


A lark is singing overhead


You say "Yes, we're sinking now,


But can you hear that wondrous sound?"

made of music notes


floated across the sea.


and at the bow


i can see it now


a love to dance with me.

i


am uncomfortable


with the way you say my name


 


cause i


do not belong to you


though you call me something strange


 


i


can't seem to stay awake


and i don't know what that means


 


for i


am an astronaut


i have nothing under me


 


you


are really starting to


climb inside my head


 


we


are like a negative


hung to dry above my bed


 


keep


me on this canyon floor


i don't want to venture out


 


your name


it sounds so strange to me


it's an unfamiliar sound

Saw this little bit by JGrimm, and I just thought of this piece.


The little story reminds me of something hopeful and happy being melted away, broken down. So I had some bright colors fading away, streaming away to the bottom, and the colors at the bottom are a little duller and everything.


Yup, there ya go.

So this is a song that's meant for waking up somewhere new. I wrote it as if I was waking up in a dreamy subway station where not everything is as it should be. In trying to figure out where I am, I end up on a train that appears to be broken down, and suddenly it takes off and throws me into the seat, everything in the windows is illuminated and other worldly

Ghost2

Me and my headphones and only one song playing.


It's called "the sinking ghost" by Johnny Clyde


This is what I saw, when I closed my eyes.


In my mind it was also moving.


The ghost was still but the world around him was sharp,


moving and full of cold wind.


But it wasn't depressing, it was irritating.


That is why it is out of balance.


It should be a little bit irritating and if it's not,


then I didn't deliver.


At least from my perspective.


What do you see?

Uhmm, OK. I apologize profusely if I'm doing the equivalent of smashing the stuffing out of people's toes, but if I waited around to post something "professional and perfect," or even "decent amateur effort," I'd be dead. This has all sorts of errors & mis-steps, as I was pretty exhausted after 5 hours of trying to figure things out  but... well, here it is.


Consider my video-type efforts to be a series of bumbly "thank you's" for making beautiful things that, in turn, make amazing things happen inside of my head. I wish I could show you how it really is...


 Inspired in a literal flash by JohnnyClyde's "the sinking ghost" song, the incredible footage from TaraMarie, the bafflingly wondrous short by Sherbethead, and the last bit of SarahMacLeod's "freight train." Additional stuff came later. I love this place. ♥

A speed-painting of a motive I've wanted to do for a long time. Took me about 1 hour in Photoshop CS5.

This painting is dedicated to my grandfather, who didn't die at the battlefield, but suffered from trauma throughout his life, as he experienced a lot of bad things during the war, fighting the Germans.
His wife died quite early, and he never fully rejuvenated after the loss of his dear wife. I can't imagine the torment that he had to go through, bearing the agony of war-memories on one shoulder, and the agony of missing his true soulmate and love - on the other shoulder.

All of the great footage being uploaded for OWS has really got me inspired, and tonight after singing through some music for another project, I sat down at my computer and recorded this impromptu performance of one my favorite songs. 


This Little Light of Mine is a public domain song, often considered a children's spiritual. What I love about it is how the simple lyrics (and I only used one set, the most famous, here) can be interpreted in a great many ways. For me, the song is about making your voice heard and your presence felt, and for that reason it's the song I think of whenever I see groups of people protesting.

I LOVE what's already been done with the Dusty Dance tiny story, but I thought I'd still share my take on it :)


EDIT: if this gets used for anything, i just realized that i forgot to mute one of the clips so there's a little bit of background noise for a few seconds (that's what you get for trying to edit video with a baby in your lap!)

so i was playing around with saintmaker's amazing photo & somehow a scary red wolflike demon with a conveniently wide open mouth emerged subtley from the background... surely a sign from the photoshop gods that i'd gotten a chance to redeem myself for that last LRRH REmix i did. hope this serves as an interesting poster for our little red collab! <3

Hello again, everybody. It's been a long, long time. Hope you are all very well.



I found my mind wandering toward Stitchtown recently, and felt it would be fun to actually contribute something. I've only ever added the initial sketch, and nothing beyond that. However I've had some thoughts on the old place. 

I should preface the follwing few documents with the confession: I am, sadly, in no way up to date on the Stitchtown canon. Sorry. If any of the following conflicts with it, then by all means ignore it.


The main thing I had been thinking about was not Stitchtown per se, but the world it exists in, and the rules of that world. I'll expand on that in a mo, but in the meantime, here's some Stitchers hunting clouds in the dawnlight.
