Rave About Something That Makes You Happy - Page 4

Antagon · 02.15.2019, 07:52 AM

Got asked again to provide the visuals for a someone else's event. It's on tonight. I'm really happy with my mix. There's a lot of grainy, light-leaky Super 8 footage, some Stan Brakhage, Len Lye, Hans Richter and a pinch of VHS tape glitch and feedback experiments. I've even thrown in three of my own lo-fi shorts for good measure. And I really like the place it's being displayed at. If it's anything like last time, it's gonna mesh well with the music being played there. Looking forward to it.

Congrats Antsgon! Sounds like a cool gig!

Thanks, guys.

Several things right now. The paper I handed in turned out to be alright. That's a mighty relief. I also found a location for my next event. It's only a temporary solution, I'm still on the lookout for something more permanent, but it's a good feeling not be sans venue in April. And it's a plus that it happens to be a cavern-like venue, throwing a lot of atmosphere into the mix.

And I'm kind of eyeing taking a trip to NYC in summer. It's been six years since my last visit and right now I'm still in a position where I can afford it. I don't know if that's the case in a year or two, so might as well take the opportunity when I still can. Browsed through several Airbnb and cheapo hotel options yesterday. This only sparked my wish to give it a shot again and gave me those warm and fuzzies that are tinged with memories. Still not 100% certain, but I'm heavily leaning towards a "yes" on that matter. And that's something to look forward to.

I have some days off from my job, and was thinking about going back to work and almost looking forward to it.

My office is extremely behind on making budget and my manager is going insane. I’m just taking my
Time with everything and watching him freak out is glorious. On top of that, drivers need to speak with him over some issues. I just want to see this place burn to the ground.

During one lecture we were discussing things like corporate identity and the image a certain product is supposed to convey. He showed us this sheet with different BnJ flavors. And he was like "Now, looking at that, Cherry Garcia, Phish & Chips...what kind of audience is being targeted here?". And I was like "Someone who's got the munchies?" (knowing that he's kind of a chill person). To which he replied "That's not what I was going for, but if we stick to stoner-jokes, how about 'Half-Baked'?". Fun times.

Does anxiety help? Like, does it keep you sharp?

Or does it just fuck you up?

Not sure if it makes me happy, but my coffee consumption should make others happy because I don't try to murder them sometimes.
