perfect timing to see this trailer. i feel like i have been in a fog for almost two years but thats all about to change : ) ima do like the like the Phoenix!
legend says after it lived for 1000years...it builds its own funeral pyre, and throws itself into the flames. As it dies, it is reborn anew, and rises from the ashes to live another 1000 years.
HEARD!

art ish...

as i dive into master degree applications...i recall the days of art theory and art history in my undergraduate program. this video is of my homie , as well as fellow undergraduate classmate of mine, pontificating on the subject of post structuralism. he is currently studying for his MFA at University of Penn...and here a look at those Ivy League tuition in action!

and in case you were wondering, answer is YES...he is a rapper too!! hahaha

blah blog...

have been alil low on the inspiration tip lately. maybe its my version of writers block. its not that your unproductive...you just DONT like anything you create. im sure its temporary.


btw this video just came out today :)

newness...

i JUST heard this group's music this morning...and WOW. its new. its good.
they are called KING. comprised of three ladies (two are twin sisters) and one great sound.

nowhere man...

i was raised on The Beatles but only a Lennon fan in the last few years. as i became more aware of struggle (through art, politics and love) i was able to truly appreciate him. i found this trailer for a film that captures his teenage years called nowhere boy. it reflects the time when he transitions into himself. because even though you are born who you are...there is a process to becoming yourself. apparently the final edited version got leaked and i was able to watch the entire movie on youtube. i liked it.

only time will tell...

i opened a new shop on etsy, its dedicated to telling stories from the past. i have teamed up with a very talented Poet to scribe each narrative. you will be able to read them on the boutique's self-titled blog.

the concept of time is an endless source of inspiration.
