FRODUS REUNION>>>>
wtf, i think i was going to make a point to go to SXSW this year. but here i am, working almost everyday of the first half of this month. so to cut to the chase...cut and paste!!!
Hello,
Lovitt Records and Slip Productions will be doing a joint showcase during SXSW week. We joined forces because we care about good music and want to share our love with you.
We have been working non-stop to create the best possible show and just as we were about to announce the amazing line up we got the the following communique from The Frodus Conglomerate International:
"2009 has seen the world economy crumble due to the unethical practices of businessmen and corporate oligarchy. The current administration with the assistance of Ben Bernanke, Chairman of the United States Federal Reserve, has reached out to the Frodus Conglomerate International for aid. Calls were made, doors were closed and numbers adjusted. After weeks of vicious negotiation both parties agreed on a proper course of action.
The Frodus Conglomerate International will address the public for the first time in 10 years on Saturday March 21, 2009, at 4:30 pm in Austin, Texas. Austin will be the first of several public forums to address current global conditions forewarned by the FCI in years past. The Conglomerate has employed Liam Wilson of the Dillinger Escape Plan to supply bass guitar for this address while Nathan Burke organizes his North-West Contingency. We are the economic police.
"
In addition to announcing Frodus playing, we are happy to announce the rest of the amazing line-up! The show will take place on Saturday, March 21st at the Radio Room (508 East 6th Street) in Austin, Texas, on two stages.
The current schedule is:

Slavery in our midsts....
Read an article reposted on Boingboing.net today from Gourmet magazine about tomato pickers in the Naples, FL area that have been working under horrible,"slaver-like" conditions for years now. One such story revealed a group of men forced to live in a truck, pay $5 for cold, water hose showers, and threatened to be beaten by their "crew bosses" for being sick, exhausted, or malnourished. We are all very aware of the work conditions set in place for poverty level humans across the globe and even in this country, however, to have such basic slavery right under our noses in our own state is ludicrous.
there is a group called the Coalition of Immokalee Workers that has been campaigning for the rights of these workers for the past few years. the website is ciw-online.org.
check it out. send our governor an email.
i know that in these times caring for the income and well-being of others isn't necessarily easy, but these people are the ones pulling your fruits and vegetables everyday, making sure Publix has those perfectly red tomatoes in the Winter.
gettin off the soapbox now. atleast check it out. this is a huge part of our state.

Sweaty Palms
Whenever I compete in any kind of video game tournament my palms get all kinds of sweaty. So at the gamestop tournament last week I was constantly drying off my hands on my pants in between matches, gross. Even so I still walked away victorious with some really crappy prizes and a spot in the semi-semi finals this up coming saturday.
Behold the crappy schawg. Yellow head band, wrist bands and a certificate. The tourney had two winners, Me and some asian dude who I think my girlfriend has a crush on. There were a quite a few asian dudes, which whom I defeated much to Connie's surprise. The attendees consisted of black dudes, asian dudes and dorky smelly white dudes. Needless to say gamestop smelled real bad that day. Even if I don't go all the way in this tournament I still plan on going to Evolution this july in vegas. Anyone wanna go? Seriously, I have a hotel room you can stay in, I don't want to be surrounded by nerds the entire week that I am there. Bah.

Two inmates escape from Greek Max. Security Prison...BY HELICOPTER!!!!!
http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/02/23/greece.prison.resigns/index.html
ATHENS, Greece (CNN) -- The director of a maximum-security prison and two of his colleagues resigned Monday after two inmates escaped by helicopter.
Police at Korydallos prison after the daring escape.
The Greek minister of justice, Nicholas Dendias, said he had asked for and received the resignations of the director, security secretary and head of inspection and control at Korydallos Prison, in a suburb of Athens.
"The government will not tolerate the current situation," he said in a written statement. "Those involved in this escape will be brought to justice and punished."
The escape played out like a Hollywood action film.
It began around Sunday afternoon, when two men hijacked a helicopter from Athens International Airport and ordered the pilot to fly to the prison.
The helicopter hovered over the roof of a prison compound where inmates Nikos Paleokostas, 42, and Alket Riza, 34, were located. Rope ladders were unfurled and the prisoners climbed into the helicopter and escaped, the Justice Ministry said.
Prison guards shot at the helicopter during the escape, witnesses told local media. There were no reports of injuries.
The pilot was found gagged near the helicopter north of Athens, a state-run media report said.
The prison break by helicopter is the second from the prison for Paleokostas, who was convicted for abducting a businessman and escaped the first time in June 2006. He was recaptured several months later and returned to the prison.

Investigators searched for the inmates and unidentified accomplices Sunday.
On Monday, the justice minister announced the resignation of Leonidas Karampekiou, the prison director; Foti Vlachou, the security secretary there, and Apostolos Economou, the head of inspection and control at the prison.

BAP
BAP. Greetings everyone! Today is a beautiful day! Street Fighter IV comes out today, hopefully. In 3 weeks I will have a vacation from school and Orlando! I imagine that I feel like this guy does.
Everything else is ok, I have midterms all week which suck, but I belong to a really cool semi-secret organization called the bone society thats kind of cool. Are we ever going to get organized? Secret pass-words? A secret handshake that we don't do in public? A set of standards to become a member would be nice, a creed or a motto would also be a good idea. Oh I just realized the kind of people the society consists of, we only get ambitious when we get drunk. Which is fine since it was created under the influence of alcohol. IS ANYONE ELSE GOING TO POST HERE? EVER?.....*exhales*.
Back to the vacation thing, I will be in NYC for a week with the Connie Monster and would appreciate any suggestions for places to visit/eat. As soon as we get off the plane we will probably bee-line for the noodle bar and then proceed to drink and eat until we pass out on the MET. Preston recommends the ninja place so we might try that. I think I might make reservations at the best steak house in NYC. Has anyone eaten there before? Is it worth the price? Anyways, to quote defame "no one reads your blog anyways" so I really don't know why Im asking for feed back, since Rymar stated writing his vagina monologues no one else posts or reads this crappy blog.

Pre-Game
Its almost here, one the biggest nerd moments in my life. The release of street fighter IV. Gamestop called me up today to let me know one of my arcade sticks was in so went I down there to pick it up. It is really nice but an even better one is coming out with the game. The controller is nice and heavy, the parts are really responsive, over all a very well designed product. Now I have to wait five more days to use it. Thats not true, I am playing old street fighter as I type this.
It came with a nifty character card that has movelists and play mechanic descriptions, like the ones you would see on an actual arcade machine. I wish it was cordless but its not. Getting use to the arcade stick after so long on the pad is harder than I thought. The last time I was in an arcade was back in october in new york. I have a lot of work cut out for me.

Stop Dickin' Around
Ok, it seems that every site that I visit today has a video of the awesome new invention, the joydick. Apparently you hook said device up to your dong and control the game through masturbation. I know what most of you are thinking, "yes! I can do two useless things at once now and have more free time during the day!". The harsh reality of this product is that most people I know would pull their dick right off with the way they play video games, me on the other hand am ever so graceful and precise that it would probably come second nature to me. Thats what she said.

Nudity
What you have all been waiting for, pure ass. NSFW! Guess its a little late for that! I did this in the last drawing class I took which was bout 4 years ago. Yep, thats a nude female, the perks of being a serious "artist". Hope you like it, its charcoal on heavy stock, took maybe three to four hours. I gave it to my mom for christmas a couple of years back, and when I went to visit her she had it hung vertically, which looked stupid.
This is Mr. Dick Nose. He's a mask I sculpted out of clay and plaster then painted and added a cute little hat. He is a Tengu mask. If you have been to my house you have probably already seen this, and he is my avatar on the blog. I really like this and wanted to show something other than a drawing. This took about 4 hours and was a lot of fun to work on. Oh and ladies, he is totally single.

Drawings of Old
First off, I need everyone who reads this to sign up for the Street Fighter IV contest. The winner gets a street fighter 4 arcade machine. You don't have to buy anything, just sign up and give me the machine if you win. DO IT. Their also holding a nation wide tournament held at local game stops (you better win jimmy), which yours truly will be entering, fuck yea. The winner of that also gets a street fighter 4 machine. Ok, time for more drawings.
This sketch was most likely done in 2001-2002. This was one of my first experiments with ink washing. I came to like the technique and have been experimenting with it ever since. I have no idea who the model is but the hand most likely belogs to me.
Hands. I have drawn my hands thousands of times. I like drawing hands, and I was thinking that I might do a series of painted hand gestures. This sketch could be as old as 2000, I don't know. If you can't tell it was done with charcoal, apparently under a very bright light. Until next, when there might be some nudity.

1. if churches bumped like this, i would go there. (if i was into going to church still)
2. i wish church goers were really getting down to drum and bass like this in the clubs.

I do drawings
I know that I have posted some of my work up here before but as I said in a previous post I want to start displaying some old stuff. When it comes to art I have been seriously neglectful over the past year so I am hoping this will challenge me to get off of my ass and start doing more work. If anyone has any comments, ideas or criticisms (Its my fault I chose the friends I did) feel free share.
This is a really old drawing circa 2001 maybe. It is a 15-20 minute piece done as an exercise that I thought came out alright. Its two overlapping poses. For those of you that have seen my stuff before you know that I separate tones into planes and this is obviously no exception.
This one is was most likely done the same day, or at least in the same class. What really sucks about these sketches is that they are dudes. With their clothes on. No, but seriously you learn next to nothing about drawing the human form when your models have clothes on. I didn't get to do that until a couple years later. And the one model on the left is actual a women. Nude drawings a few posts later.
