Doodling patterns

One day for my calendar I made an array of my favorite doodles from my class notes this semester. I ended up liking it so much I decided to alter it to make this desktop background (and also a textile pattern..):

My Calendar

It sort of works the same way as a sketchbook or those pieces of art that one would find at the recent Documenta, New Museum, and Whitney shows of collected images and objects pinned on a wall or structure. However, instead of creating an aesthetic array of images on a single plane, I am going to put them one on top of the other one-a-day until my thesis show and display it on the wall as such. In the end it will just be this thick jumble of all different sorts of papers and photographs; impossible to see at once, but still physically substantial enough to stand in for the mass of ideas and images.

Its only the third day since I've started this so all its not much yet--but it has a good foundation, so I'm not worried.

French proverb / Site update

For those of you who read this via RSS I updated my site! It may not be very linear or obvious where I updated (or maybe it is) but theres a lot of new works up.

Also, I'll be taking a little break in updating. Most of the recent posts have been because my last month has been devoted to digitally archiving things (more on that later)..
