Don't Ask Don't Tell at Great Scott

new promotional video made from months of footage.

I decided to make a twitter account

I realized that much of my attempted poetry consists of a strong line or two, with little in the way of volume. Twitter, with it's limited character count, seems like a perfect outlet. Follow me there to peruse some of my deepest and most obscure thoughts. Much obliged!

Don't Make Any Sense

This poem was constructed using bits of conversation I heard outside my window one day.

The way that life's been going, I was hoping
The way that life's been going, I was hoping
When I get there don't make any sense.
You can't live with 'em
You can't shoot 'em
Welcome back!
I know well have a good one.

untitled video

This is the second video I ever made. All of the video and sound were captured using my now deceased cell phone. I apologize for the low visual quality, but that's a part of it. Let it surround you.

Tragic Cleanup

Here's the latest collage I've made. Created in late 2010, it was inspired by certain messy events.

I originally posted this on facebook. Here is the one and only comment it elicited.
"Beutiful little puppy what did you end up naming him. Btw my big doggie is named Rocco he is a rhodesian ridgeback."

Welcome!

to my blog. I'll be posting things created or appropriated by me. I'll start by digging through some older works and then trudge my way to the present. Interspersed will be some pieces by other artists that inspire me.

Don't Ask Don't Tell is an exceptional, unexpected dance night currently hosted in Allston at O'Brien's.
I have been creating video pieces for the night since its inception earlier this year. My video work has been called a "cultural overload." I just hope it makes people move and feel sexy. Here is a fraction of what I've shown in the past. Play it big! And show it at your next party!
