Entitled “In Cammino Per Trasformarsi Nell’istante Presente” (Moving to transform into the present), the installation speaks about time and how it changes all material.
The sculpture can be seen in the garden of the Museo Archeologico “Paolo Giovio” in Italy. Made of dead trees and roots that were collected in the forest, no tools or nails were used to assemble the pieces, it just fit one into another:
The University of Auckland has a Glee Club and towards the end of every year they put on their annual show for the public.
Although I freaking love music and dance, Glee really isn’t my cup of tea, I think it’s a loner thing, but I know a few people who enjoy it immensely and that’s enough for me to put aside my preferences and appreciate what I might have otherwise never given a chance. I attended Saturday’s show to see my friend perform, and she was fantastic! It was fantastic. From opening act through to the encore, the students really put on a great performance, but my friend was the star of the show for me. So many things ran through my head during, like past relationships and current friendships type of things, but I don’t feel like writing about that stuff. Instead, here’s what I wrote on the official Glee Club Facebook page because I thought someone might like to read how much someone else, who they have zero affiliations with, enjoyed and appreciated their passion, talent and dedication, because it really showed.
*sang… On top of being able to sing and dance, my friend is also an ace of an artist. I envy her skills. (What have I been doing with my life?) Here are some pre-text Escape posters my friend helped design (click for high-res):
Follow the University of Auckland Glee Club on a musical journey of self-discovery of epic proportions, from the blissful heights of cloud nine, all the way to the darkest pits of the nightmare that haunt us. Join us as we escape reality, breaking free from our fanciful dreams and our dreary inhibitions, and learn to rise up from the ashes!
With beautiful singers, stunning dancers, and an eclectic range of music, there’s something for everyone to enjoy in this show, so get your tickets today!
A lot of random things get mentioned at Dr. Sketchy and last night my friend Carl and MC Nat Hugill, aka. Lilly Loca, were laughing over some crazy woman with a hard-on for McNuggets. Here is the video of said woman, and it is next level cray-cray!!
“Don’t make me assume my ultimate form!” Honestly speaking, as irate and hangery as she was, I thought her crazy talk was well articulated. …Nobody introduce this bitch to popcorn chicken.

This is my favourite group on the planet. In my opinion, they have far too many great songs to fit in a top 10, but I do appreciate the appreciation that has been given. Ranging from 1995 to 2016, here is Watch Mojo’s compiled list of the top 10 best Deftones songs:
Glad “Sex Tape” was given and honorable mention and I do agree with number one.

Cate Blanchett’s face is warped, changed and rearranged in the haunting new video for Massive Attack’s “The Spoils,” featuring Hope Sandoval:
Directed by John Hillcoat, the clip features Blanchett’s head rotating against a black background as Sandoval’s lithe voice drifts over Massive Attack’s brooding production. At first, the actress undergoes a simple hairstyle or makeup change, but soon, her whole face is cast in plaster, as its skin peels off and transforms into a stone statue.
Anonymity — I appreciate what this allows people to do and feel when they recognize they have it. When I began this blog for instance, I didn’t know what I was doing or care much about how I was doing it and for whom would see it. Over time I came to understand that blogging was for me, and this blog was my space where I didn’t have to be shy or censor myself for the sake of modesty or judgment from the world. It was fun. It was only when I realized that people I knew and cared about were visiting me that I began to filter my content to what I deemed suitable for them to read. My sister and younger brother for instance. This also meant I couldn’t write about my friends anymore either. Which isn’t a bad thing, but for myself, I don’t open up to people in my life, so writing is something I need.
This blog changed for the better and made me a better writer for it, but I also lost a personal mechanism for coping with my real life and my wishful thoughts. I truly believe I need writing in order to exorcise my thoughts and feelings on the regular, and I can’t do that on this blog anymore. I want that to change. Hence the reason why I am changing the general settings from public to private as of today. In my life right now, I could really use the benefits that come from journaling. No one visiting had gotten to know me any better anyway, so maybe it is about time I got to know myself, and experiment with this medium.
