Here It Is

And The Award For...What is it?

There was soo much hair that I had to cut some off to glue the plaque on.
And The Award For Best Hair Goes To..........

Hairy Scissors

Talk about a hairy situation

I kept running out of hot glue

and yea this is human hair

ALMOST DONE!

I have got the base glued on
the holes drilled


all that's left is to add the hair.

Damn Thing Kept Breaking

After all the breakage, and me getting frustrated, it finally cooperating with my step dad.

Now all I gotta do is drill out the handles and sand it a little and it's good to go.

Trophy Assignment

So I wanted to start my project with wire then cover it in telephone wire then in foil and then in hair.

Then my idea was to start it with 2 pieces of wood.

Now my idea is on one piece of wood- it's kind of hard to see but the is the front.

It broke apart so now I am waiting for the glue to dry and try again

It Was A Hot Day To Wear Black

It was way too hot out to do anything so I decided to sit for a break- man, the looks I got HAHA.

Moments before entering K-mart- moments before walking right back out.

But all went well.

More Hair

This little bag of hair, on top of the bigger bag, is donated by James- Thank you James

See Posting Music Is Simple

ToothPicks- Finished!

This is the end result of a little less than 500 toothpicks. Trust me it looks better in person.

Test Piece

This is a test piece for assignment 4.
Combining two different materials.
One being Traditional and the other Contemporary.
So what I am doing is combining Wood (the traditional piece) which is the guitar fretboard, and toothpicks (the contemporary) which will later represent the hand.

Collecting Hair

Let's see where to start?

Oh yeah here are some photo's for what I am collecting for my sculpture class throughout the course of the semester- so like 11 weeks or so.

First bag of hair- brought to you by my friend Gor. He needed a haircut to go job hunting so we cut his hair. Current style is a fauxhawk.

Second bag of hair- brought to you by my friend Matt- after convincing him that it wasn't going to be used for a voodoo doll he gladly gave it up. Well when you need a free haircut why not go to a friend?

Third bag of hair is brought to you via the vacuum - wow who knew that my floor (and my floor only) had so much hair. My mom vacuumed the house but threw away the remains, no matter I still collected a good amount.

HAHAHA this trash bag is brought to you by Supercuts- this is just a weeks worth of hair.
The bag filled about half way but trust me this sucker was pretty heavy- and look at it, it looks like a giant dread lock. I pitched in some hair so I'm pretty sure my contribution is somewhere at the bottom.

To Be Continued...

Finally Pieced Together

So what I did for the "prototype" was use Crayola markers- a pack of 10- convenient no?

Then taped both the markers and the gloves to some wooden dowels.

After taping the gloves and the markers, decided to paint them black to blend with the gloves.

I ran out of spray paint-it was already empty-ish when I started- after doing only the top half of the dowels I had to go to Michael's and get more- I walked about 30minutes there and 30 back to get 2 cans.

The one with the bag was still kind of drying.

All dry and ready to be creepy.

Now just got to go into a public area- maybe school and downtown and citrus plaza?

May change markers to chalk or something. Oh and let other people wear them.

New Day New Idea

Well the guitar box was hard as hell- I think I shall save that for another, more free-time kinda day.

I'm running -jogging really- with a new idea.

Rebecca Horn has two extensions pieces that I keep coming across so I decided to toy with those ideas.

First was this Edward Scissorhands finger extensions type thing where she'd try to pick things up.

Second was this head-drawing-mechanism that she tried to draw with.

Well now my idea is to extend my fingers both my right and left hand with either string or a more sturdy material maybe like wooden dowels with sharpies at the end of them. And attempt to draw like that.

Project: Guitar

still the same as the last post but now i has pictures!

which i will upload and post later explaining what the heck i am doing.

so far it's going okay, loooong process- hopefully ends well.

and personally i want this object to be functional- that's just me.

project: "PROP"

alright it is about 3:30 in the morning on Feb. 2nd.

A few things

1) Lost Final Season starts at 8 tonight- I have class from 6-9pm. Luckily the first hour is a re-cap- if I'm lucky I can catch it at 9.

2) After having an acoustic guitar since forever, and after getting a new one that I actually enjoy playing, I've been in the process of dismantling it. Strings. Paint. Bridge. All that jazz.

So I'm kinda stuck in ideas, I suppose I'm taking this one apart to see how everything fits together.

My idea, thanks to some people in class, is/ or was to make an "arm guitar", not sure how it's going to go for sure. But I almost want to change my idea or at least do something with this acoustic--maybe convert it to a bass? or at least take the frets off of it.

Maybe I'll get more ideas from much needed sleep haha.

1st Ever Blog Post

Well in my Sculpture class we had to do 3 assignments off of this website [learningtoloveyoumore.com]. This website had like 70 assignments to choose from; so I chose #38, #41, and #48.
#38 is Act out someone else's argument.

#41 is Document your bald spot.

#48 is Make the saddest song.

This one I have, but it's not to it's full potential, should be up and running soon though
