KC STAR

the Kansas City Star has been good to me the past couple of weeks.

first up, an article about tattoos and art in the sunday (8.9.09) House & Home section...i'm not really a part of the article per say, but there's a pic of my tattooed arm with a foldedpigs Super Duper Cupcake Cup!
The Tattoo & The Place Mat
secondly, an article on the Pecha Kucha Night i participated in last month. The article from this sunday (8.16.09) starts out with a little description of my presentation...it says i'm funny! they like me, they really really like me!
Pecha Kucha Night: 6 min 40 sec

oh....my....god....
i saw this on a posted facebook link and KNEW i had to blog about it immediately. HUMAN BREAD!
Kittiwat Unarrom (Potharam, Thailand) is the mastermind behind this work.
"When people see the bread, they don't want to eat it. But when they taste it, it's just normal bread," he said. "The lesson is 'don't judge just by outer appearances."
i LOVE this.

Pecha Kucha Night #6

pecha kucha #6 was a rousing success! there was a blog post about it on the main pecah kucha website.
i was 3rd in the lineup of 9. my whole presentation was a whirlwind...i barely even remember being up there. turns out 6 min 40 sec goes by even quicker than you'd imagine... being blinded by a spotlight helped.

the crowd at cross town station.

the mouse turds look gigantic on a large screen.
you know i had to talk about horror movies!
