mind blowing

it's been raining so hard this morning and last night... somehow though, i've managed to stay dry, have lots of tea with friends, share recent dreams (sleep dreams, not like, goals dreams, but those included too, to some extent), and exchange beautiful music and music videos. 

to begin my day, i discovered some new incredible art @ my favorite art/design blog, booooom:

“Buses” photos by Andrew Miksys. -- perfect rainy day photography

Illustrations by Denise Nestor. -- mind blowing pencil drawings that are helping me understand myself and recent thoughts. i beg you to look at this link, if you look at nothing else on this blog. these illustrations are unbelievable.


Tape art by Buff Diss. -- tape art?!?!


Everfresh and Miso paint the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne. -- will someone please let me do this to their wall at home some day? 

“Back to the Future”, an amazing series of photos by Irina Werning. People were invited to re-create their old photos. -- i also saw a post today with even more of her photos on the magazine's website that i sometimes work for:  here.

i love this music video from the same blog:  


this is hopefully one of the only times i say omg on my blog, but i promise it's necessary. essentially necessary. OMG -- fucking take away shows is a ridiculously amazingly inspiring music blog that has a bunch of wooonndderrrffuuuullllll bands today being recorded in live, indoor and outdoor, public settings. fabulous performances of some of the best musicians i've heard this day in age that i love. these performances are just amazing. the videos are heart wrenchingly happy. i will probably never say this again on my blog ever again either -- please don't be mad at me -- i just jizzed in my pants. hours of time have been and will be going watching videos on this blog.


lastly, i re-located this mini text-edit file that i saved over the summer of 2010 and just found the other day on my computer, titled "BEST IDEA":


new life goal:

good ideas.

nonstop art and music.
