Schedule:

Thurs Night- come hang out at the Edison. It is kinda a fancy dressup Steampunk themed bar. It's pretty awesome

I found out that I'm doing live art at Lightning in a Bottle on Memorial Day weekend in Santa Barbara. If you're into techno & art, you should come! I'll be doing murals themed to sustainability.

May 30- Birthday Party part 2! It's a joint bday party for me and Dave Mertl, and we're throwing a dance music event!! If you missed the Dar Maghreb party, you should come to this one.

Es ist der Vater mit seinem Kind;
Er hat den Knaben wohl in dem Arm,
Er faßt ihn sicher, er hält ihn warm.

Hey, Pinguino

I wanted to pass you name and page onto a new friend I made here at dA - She recently bought a new Nikon digital camera and I wanted her to meet those people whose photography I admire. She runs a framing store in Canada and I'm sure she'll appreciate your artwork and your photography. Her da handle is "Handle" and her name is Sandra. :)

Hey Pinguino - I dropped your name to another dA friend of mine (also a photographer) who has a collage she did on show in a museum in Japan. I'm sure you two would get along, she's a nice young lady and a good photographer. I provided a link to your page for her, so if "aReasontoHope" drops by say hello to her. :)
