well, i admit. i didn't think this through properly. it is VERY cold at the moment. sitting in a bath outside is a bad idea at this time of year, although i did get a little bit done. mainly the ballsy one: in town outside hmv at lunchtime.

unfortunately i can't load it on here, it's too long and the computer was having a hard time, so the youtube link will have to do.

it got some public reactions, which was good. about six seconds in someone shouts "wierdo!" and the ageing lady was sent from the people in the coop bank to see what was going on. later on they thanked me for keeping them amused for a few hours.

someone i know walked past and started taking photos, so i asked if i could be sent them. they're not the most "flattering", but it's all good.

the project will be continued in the summer when the risk of hypothermia is somewhat less. as for now i have some videos to laugh at and some fun filming although it was really cold.

mud tales will also be filmed later on in the year when the ground is warmer and i can play with it more.




the doodle suit?

that worked.

i think whoever drew on it can agree that was a fun project. i'm going to scan the suit and upload a link so you can download it as a .pdf.

at the beginning of the night we put a bet on how many rudimentary phalluses would be drawn on me. the closest was dave the sound guy, who bet five. the end result was lower than all of the bets, which was four, although one was over 2ft long, so it could count for two.

alot to upload, wil get there in chunks.

an exercise in recontextualising: the bath part 1

as an attempt at playing with context i will be recontextualising bathing throughout this week. if you're in guernsey you may see me bathing in different areas on tuesday or thursday. either way, the finished video result will be uploaded here and onto youtube as soon as it is finished, which will hopefully be around the end of next week. the final touches are being put onto the text to accompany this, and i'll be starting to record it towards the end of this week.

this project is going to be fun, maybe embarrassing, and somewhat cold, but i hope anyone who sees it enjoys it as much as i am going to enjoy making it. maybe more. i hope people enjoy it as much as i was cold during the filming of this.

also during this week:
mud tales - surprisingly a story told via the medium of mud

should you be looking at that? - a pen and paper performance on a first contact with pornography.

and a collaborative work with the audience of the first any which way festival events, possibly finishing with an auction depending on how many penises are drawn on my face.

enjoy...,.

untitled monologue

Gank, Luck, Crazy animations circulating, misconjecture, aerating space in out among crab walking pedestrians, Primani zoot suit and tie that says “oh, i am commander”, combination lock stock coffee cup and new edition romulus cow-skin suitcase lined with the souls of innocent cardboard smashed and mushed big style to layers and layers and layers of thin, ineffective padding that upon touching you make that slight cringe due to the texture and think although this feels bad, it could always be something slimy, slithery or spongey you could be bathing in while mummy feather fucking top doctor romulus holding bold, blindfolds, swings and stuff, speaking through robots on angry ice, toungueing lizards and finger larks all set for sunrise and a quick escape for milkman’s entry on the morrow then remaining business follows: mr pot, the flowershop man, Man Ray, and Stravinsky singing hot things on tadpole chariots to screams of lusty serenades to crab walking pedestrians lost in devil grey towers and stilt eyes poised for watching what we once determined found in books, now “brought to you by…..”


overcoming mrs darcy

“Take off your gunns!” Screamed Mrs. Darcy as she waltzed across the levy. “Do you not know your limits? The pan is off the hob and you probably haven’t even washed your hands yet!”

She was correct. I hadn’t washed my hands, however, I had almost overpowered a whole lemon. All by myself! I thought it had called for some pretty big chat, but Mrs. Darcy did not seem to think so.
I was overcome.
Had she beaten me?
Not yet.
I had one trick left up my sleeve.
One night late in early march I snuck inside her and hid my seed deep in the recess. Soon after she began to feel ill every morning. My plan had worked! She was certainly in a pickle now.

By October a whole marrow grew out of her elbow.
I was victorious at last.

now is the time to act!

On this hill the world as we know it collided. There were fridges flying over the countryside and dropping small packages of explosive cheese. Of course, the blenders had to respond. The first wave of hand blenders and the whisk militia were hit the hardest, almost losing 250,000 lives. The worst blow was to troop morale though. Blendy Blenderson got hit. Blown to smithereens. The blenders realised this is not going to be over any time soon. Poor blenders. This is going to be a long, hard, uphill struggle, and they have to win. No matter what. The blenders must survive. This is life or death now. This is the continuation of a species. This is mass extinction. Genocide.

The fridges need to protect their place in the kitchen. Those blenders have been creeping up on every surface. The steamers have already been wiped out by the bastards. Who knows who could be next. The mandolins? Surely not the mandolins. We fridges need to do something now before the blenders spread everywhere. We must stop them. Put them in their place!

NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT PEOPLE!

brown bread

brown bread. how i long for it's sweeter counterpart.

amazon and furry bears

Hannah got had, which is funny because she had it coming.

the effects of which i didn't notice until a few days later, as per the usual routine each month, she began her rule of tyranny which only lasted one day this month. it seems she's ashamed.

maybe looking at it now she can laugh about it, because it is actually funny, but at the time she was probably a little shook up and put down. i wasn't there. she was in wales.

at the time of deciding to start a blog i was masturbating, and acheived that insight of which only self pleasure really can provide, watching a shit porn with your hands all over yourself trying desperately to accomodate lust, but only managing wanderings about starting blogs and what books to order off of amazon. in this situation: useful.

i've fallen hopelessly in love, once again, with a soldier who i knew from school and is now off to war. I, being selfish, wanted them to stay so i could avoid talking to them and watch them from afar. a healthy relationship. if it wasn't for mr. D i probably wouldn't touch myself as much, not that i think of him now, but he used to touch you when he spoke. it was like he'd beam his message across (a bit messy in the speech department) to you and you would get it there and then. he'd update your programming once every day in spanish, then go back to the beautiful language of chemistry to round off the day.

bunsen burners and sausages were the main reasons for the whole reagan shooting, not that there even was a shooting, but i think there was. if not, then there should have been. he seems like the type. i couldn't find my scooter that morning when i found, in stead, my keys. not that i had a car anymore, but i liked to keep the spares to look at, or in case i wanted to steal it. i didn't know where it was parked, but i didn't matter because the car wasn't mine now.

in the amazon, they cut down valuable rainforest space to grow books. the advent of internet reading had created a monster. the consumers read too fast now for authors to catch up. now books simply grow from trees not unsimilar to bay trees, but bigger and with books on them. i have reason to suspect they're an odd colour, however i've only seen pictures of them from google search, and they were black and white. book trees that is.
