Memory, Everyone Pees


So what I was intending with this video was to force people into remembering waking up in the night and going to the bathroom. It is something everyone does. I wanted to use mostly sound to invoke the memory.

Pacifist slapping gentleman

The idea was to have myself being assaulted, something more people would react to, and to remain calm. I clipped around a lot to add emphasis and variety.

Material Exploration Wood

I woke up with Wood
The only purpose behind this is to put the viewer in the position of waking up next to a large pile of wood sticks after a long night out. I want it to have a 'what the fuck?' and 'is there a point?' feel to it.

'WTF' are those doing there
This was a covert operation in hobby lobby. After purchasing my materials I walked around and found a spot with no cameras or employees then pulled this pile of sticks from my pocket and took a photo. I wanted it to have the feeling of just stumbling on something weird.


To my Mother, Happy Mothers Day
There is a pleasure in the woods, there is rapture in the lonely shore, there is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea and music in its roar; I love not man the less, but nature more. - George Byron
I made this orchid for my mother and covered it in a quote I thought she would really like that also had wood in it. This piece is representational and was only supposed to show my progress in wood burning after practicing.

Alien 1
This was my second or third wood burning and I felt it came out better than the prior two. It is intended to look like a three eye'd alien with a beak, tentacles and wings. And a belly...

Abstract 1
I focused on mark and texture in this and really tried to make some dark marks. Its an abstract work done on bass wood.



Abstract 1337

This was my larger abstract that I enjoyed making very much. It was started geometric and became very organic by the end. The viewers eyes are supposed to focus on the bottom triangle and the flow and rhythm it has.
