VHS

 After watching so many tapes over the sumer I really like the look of VHS,  and it's something not everyone will understand,  returning to technology from the past  is looked at as "less", but I think it can add sentimental feelings and bring you to a different mindset  that has been erased with 1080 p.  There was such a rush to get away from VHS the past decade, but how much clarity is really needed?    I feel that HD is good for is watching sports, science shows  and exposing the the worn out faces of nightly news anchors.  It makes movies look fake,  they don't have the fantasy aspect to them anymore,  like in a dream for example, no one dreams in 1080p,  it's all foggy and there isn't really any color to it.   If your watching HD with terrible eye sight to begin with then the quality is probably less than VHS looks with good eyes.  Ramble ramble ramble

MY LIFE ON EARTH 1991-2002

I've been very busy this, hot Texas summer, living in the era of the late 90's via  the VHS videos I shot during that time,  looking at all those videos leaves me slightly heart broken, in the way Sunday afternoons do after a big Saturday night party.  Like time has passed me by.  I think one can be more productive when young and enthusiastic,  because there is a stronger quest for knowledge and you eagerly want to make a statement, whatever it is.  Then once your older and 'wiser' you look at things differently in a burned out sort of way.  I think this explains why simpletons are always in such good, happy moods.     I've been piecing together a short documentary out of all these VHS tapes, there must be around 150 or more,  and it's just so time consuming to watch them all and then string together a video out of it.  
 I've done all of this for my upcoming art show in London,

Works of Wax...

I had a conversation about wax museums last month when I was thinking about visiting Madame Tussauds,
 my friend suggested the works were too good, and in order to have the best possible wax figure experience, they needed to be more on the amateur level,  Well he was right,  I had a great time,  and here is what I found...




           



I was first greeted by the cross eyed, and cheap wigged cast of Startrek.  Possibly sculpted by the same convict who created the plaster heads used in the Alcatraz escape plot...
