This is the URL for my music-blog, over on blogger.  Ideally I’ll somehow merge the two, I feel like my different cyber-spaces are getting out of hand.  Defo need to launch a website-proper soon.

Ladies and gentleman, the most pathetic reaction in horror movie history.

It’s more of a shampoo commercial than a horror film. 

I’M SORRY BUT LOL

Beethoven in Music by Erika Iris Simmons

Using an X-acto knife, Erika cut up actual Beethoven sheet music, carefully keeping each note and bar in place before rearranging them into a portrait of the iconic composer, as if Beethoven was bursting forth from his own composition.

For anyone who’s curious, I’ve started a sub-blog as an outlet and hub for the epic fantasy fiction I’m writing called ‘The Neural Nexus’.

Click the link above to see borrowed concept art, ideas and random bits n bobs.

Thanks for the follow! I really like your blog as well - So I 'casually' followed, you know :)

A best mate of mine, Ross, got me Ms Pac-Man as a gift for my birthday this year.

Today is my day off, and I decided to dig my playstation 2out of hibernation, and hook it up to Steve’s big TV.

I have an odd feeling of nostalgia playing this game.  A bittersweet memory of living at my sister Leah’s place in 2002, which is 10 years ago now.  I miss that feeling of freedom I had 10 years ago.  I was given the chance (albeit for just a few months) to just exist, without too much responsibility.  

I was living on Harcourt Road in Kirkcaldy, had a BASIC job, and I regularly just LOST myself in games and music, when I wasn’t working at Hunter’s Bakery in the Posting’s Shopping Centre.

The music in this game bring me a little wave of sentimental joy :)

Good times!

Later this year, I plan on gathering some materials, and with the help of my friend Ross, I’m going to take some digital snaps of myself, in bizarre home-made costumes; with a view to using the hidden-gem as cover-art :)

I like the idea of blending organic material with mechanical.  I brain-stormed the idea of having me wrapped in vines and branches and leaves on one half of my body, and having it blend into a metallic half.  Above is a great snap of the high-detail and close-to-the-skin kind of image I had in mind.

On the other half of my body, I think I want rusted cogs, clockwork items, gears and ribbed pipes etc.  My face will be the meeting-place between the organic and mechanical, so I think that may require make-up etc.

So, here’s to the summer :)

Love this, so true.  Today, I welded myself to my laptop, and researched for my story.  TV off, and completely lost myself in ideas.  An excellent way to escape into the weekend, after a week of call-centre madness :)

I’m using tumblr as a source of visual inspiration.  Firstly for my name-in-progress “Neural Nexus” series, and also to jog my brain re: songwriting.  I enjoy this Silhouette.
