February 2015 Update

Hello 2015! What a year 2014 was.

January was a very busy month. I didn't expect to be very busy after my internship because I'm currently unemployed and I will continue being unemployed till March because I'm currently tied with family matters. Anyways, in December while I was away in Kuala Lumpur for Comic Fiesta, I found out that entries for Beautiful Junk 2015 is open (as informed by my former boss). For those who didn't know, Beautiful Junk is an art and music exhibition showcasing both local and foreign artworks from around the world (or at least South East Asia). With entries now open and the theme had been given out, I see this as an opportunity to work with other wonderful creative minds (I love collaborations!). This year, I'm thinking of bringing back the whole thing I did with photography and pixel art mash up. This time, the whole thing will be revamped as I will be working with someone whose photography skills exceeds mine (I met up with her recently and holy shit she has an old Polaroid camera! Too bad the Polaroid films were spoiled that day).

Currently everything is being planned. I will also be working with my fellow PIX3L_NATION buddy/bro for another collaborative piece. Ultimately there will only be two submissions for Beautiful Junk but I aim to squeeze out as many artsy turd from the collaboration. At the same time, I was busy with this year's prom.

It's not my college's prom. Nor that I have a date to go to prom to start with. I am performing yet again at my friend's college annual dinner/prom. Like last year, I didn't play with my band for prom. I played with some the most awesome people I'm proud to call friends (of course one of them was a member of my actual band). This year tho, some drama ensued. There was a big misunderstanding between my actual band and the band I'm playing with for prom. Nonetheless, prom happened and we played. Unfortunately, just like last year the crowd was horrible. I've seen more emotions in dead people than these stuck up pretty boys and girls. A very unresponsive crowd. They were dull, boring and dry.Unless someone drops some dubstep, these killjoys ain't gonna even budge. In fact, this year's crowd was even worse than last year's prom. Ugh. This is the last time I'm playing at their prom. The food and venue was nice though.

I also just recently finished working on my first ever pixel art commission work on Deviantart. Third in total of commissions I've done. Not many people know this but I actually charge commissions hella cheap on Deviantart. So spread the word or hook a brother up if you need some pixels done.

Lastly, I am finally working on a collaboration project with Kazu Livingstone after about two years of talking. I don't think I should say anything about it at the moment.


That is all.
