This Shalt Be Mine

Moving forward this will be a purely viosion-centric archive of things that I do. I believe very strongly in the Cancrum.Otis ideal, that One without the capacity to Speak within any context could still have something to say, so I will promise to move forward using this identity for distribution and delivery. Experiences will hopefully range from silly to sardonic to sadness, but they are all just methods of exploration. For now they are all stones on a path that will lead me to fruition. Let fun rule, and may it ever be guided by artistic intent.

New Work Started...

Finally getting some new inspiration... time for new stuff

Couple of Pictures From the Opening

I did some cool collage-style drawings on the wall based off of some digital art I did a while back. Unfortunately you can only see one of the cool ones, it's on the right side of the first picture. I am probably going to use that one for a shirt when I get to that point.

This Machine on Flickr! www.flickr.com/photos/cancrumotis

I posted the pieces on Flickr under the "This Machine..." album. I thought about posting them all here but they would take up a lot of room and not be organized very well. So to flickr it is! I hope you check them out, I will have a couple of photos from the show on here soon. Thanks to everyone who came!

This Machine was Built for a Preview

This is a pretty good amount of the pieces that will be in the show. A couple of the really large ones aren't in there along with a small one or two.

A Sense of Omission

"This Machine Wasn't Built for Stopping" is happening!

Finally got everything together and I am having my first solo show at DesotoRow in August! Here is a flyer and a couple of images that will be there along with the other collages I have posted in the last few months.

Re-Inspired

Always the martyr details

Here are the details of each individual frame. I figure that the parts should deserve the same attention as the whole.

Still getting everything together

What a headache. Trying to get this show together, but it sucks leaving deposits etc when you are trying to save for school. I have some good news that I can hopefully share in the next while, merch stuff. Very excited.

1's and 0's

Playing with some ideas. Most of the pieces for the 'This Machine Wasn't Built for Stopping" show are done, just a couple that I have to assemble or get some printouts, so now I am just expanding on the animal themes. I think I like where it's going.

It's my birthday!

25 today...

crazy

Nothing goes as planned

Definitely different than the original digital layout, but that's what happens when you have to search for images in 1,000 pages of paper. Same idea, altered execution, finally finished. Of course, the ideas en route to this final product sparked another collage... I swear I think I am going to have at least 15 pieces in my show. Which is a good thing.

Storm's a brewin

I am hopefully going to be doing a show the first week of July at the Starland Gallery here in Savannah assuming I can get the money for the deposit for the show. My first show! I only have about 2-4 pieces to finish, kind of in limbo with a couple of them. I will also be getting pictures that aren't enormous online, just have to figure out this resolution situation. I would like to get everything on here, we'll see. More later.

Old Layout

This is an old layout I did for my old band's full-length. I was happy with it but it never really saw the light of day, thought I'd throw it up on here. It's pretty big because it was meant to fold out into a really long contiguous image.

A gathering of ideas

I have been invited to participate in Wednesday's Pecha Kucha Night here in Savannah. I will be presenting my collages and the story that flows through them. These events look like a lot of fun, I can't wait to get some reactions.

Always the martyr, never long before an update.

Closer to analogue...

My Name is Alexander... I am Far From Great.

So the main character takes the stage here. His name is Alexander and he is a very humble man.
