I would have been the one to fall in.

Delivering on that promise to get new work up in this hizzouse. This is a video I did for the BFA show at Uconn which deals with my interest in Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s concept of flow. As humans, we enter this state of flow when we become so involved in an activity that the entire world melts away. We forget both time and space, and our focus essentially becomes that activity. Hours pass like seconds and we engage in a kind of motion that is unlike anything else. I believe that it is this motion which embodies the beauty in life. It is this motion which transcends biology in favor of the true human experience. I became interested in understanding what brings flow to myself as well as others. To find out, I distributed a questionnaire to friends, family, and strangers. Some could identify an activity within seconds, and others had literally no idea what I was talking about. Tickling Ivory is a literal representation of one of the collected activities which brings flow to others. Enjoy!
The end of an era

Hey everybody. So updates on the site have been extremely sparse, but things have been extremely eventful. I graduated last week and am off to start a short grad study through the School of Visual Arts in Italy. Insanely excited to experience the culture. Ive booked my stay a bit longer than the length of the classes so I’ll be traveling around Europe, most likely headed for Amsterdam and then to London to catch my flight back to the states. I will be setting up a vlog (brutal) and posting videos with my Sanyo Xacti as I travel the countryside so hopefully there will be some pretty gorgeous stuff up here for everyone to check out within the coming weeks. I will attempt to post a video per day while I’m overseas, although I can’t make any promises as Internet may or may not be sparse.
Also, as you can see the site got a bit of an update. Slightly modified layout due to my boredom with the last one. Still keeping it simple as I believe it should ultimately serve as a frame to display my works, thoughts, etc. Over the next couple of days (hopefully) I’ll be updating with all the new work I’ve gotten back, so there should be plenty of goodies for eyes to feast upon. Until then, buhbye.
