then anything in the world, kinetic sculptures, perfect form in motion."~ Kate Millet
I was actually surprised when I found some quotes containing the word "kinetic"

A buddy of mine posted this on Facebook and thought it was cool~

who can do nothing for you."~ Geof Greenleaf


Here be pics of my wire project process yo!

 For those above pics I was in Claire's room and we were watching Samurai Champloo and since the lighting wasn't that great I first held up my project and an hour or so later used my foot as a support so you can sooort of see the process...-cough-

 in class...

 Just so that this entry isn't to barren I'm posting this because on my way to Claire's the elevator door opened and this is what I encountered...and yes when the doors closed I totally sat in that chair.

Claire, Morgan and I walked back to Cornish after Seeing Green and I took this picture cause it was purdy :c
The youtube vid I leave you with is this particular song because while I was in my room working on my wire project there was a car outside blasting this song.

Zest is the secret of all beauty.

There is no beauty that is attractive without zest." ~Christian Dior

I think I went with this quote because I have a character named Zest...and I wasn't exactly attracted to any of the zen quotes murr..

Here are some pics of the construction of the moquette cold wire connections for Foundations...

So. Now for some artists who influence my decisions...woohoo!
Well...I'll start off with a huge influence off of these peeps on deviantart...I can't say that they really influence my project but they do influence my art (so therefore they influence my project?) in ohsomany wonderful ways that I do love. These are just a few off of the literally hundreds of artists I watch on dA ahaha :'D
number of times 'influence' appeared in the above paragraph: 4.

Some fashion designers...well I honestly don't know of any by name except Alexander McQueen and that was just because one of my buddies is into fashion and she had a facebook status about him dying so I looked him up...he is quite amaaaaazing if a bit odd. Which is fine. 'Cause I'm odd too.

Here's a artist I jsut found too thanks to my highschool art teacher aha
