Daedra Loves Dick


Daedra wants Dick

    Daedra is walking down the cold sidewalk with her four closest friends in the middle of the week.  They are all on their last year of college, ready to live in “the real world” as they call it.  But what they live resembles the television show more then they think.  Living with strangers, they call them roommates, just so they can get an education but taken in certain strides, partying and not taking school seriously would lead me to specifically call it a “lower” education.

Been Doing

I've been trying to keep myself busy as usual.

Projects that I'm working on.

1. Daedra wants Dick.  I'm still going on this story very slowly.  It's coming to the end in it's written state.  I'm at about 40 pages and the shift is about to happen.  I want to see if I can get it published some place other then here but it's length is troubling.  I also want to do a tele-pod on this or pod play.  I feel like listening to something an hour long is more approachable then reading something that would take an hour.  No one I know reads consistently anymore that are my age so I'm shifting as well.

2.  I've been in the talks with a co-worker (Kris Solum) to do a few things.  I've always wanted to try out animation and he's actually done some animation so we are pitching ideas back and forth.  I gave him the idea of a man travelling from his old home to a new home with a mini-fridge.  As the trip grows longer, the surrounding landscape changes into a surreal being.  I finished up the storyboard and gave him a canvas painting of the final transformation of it all.

3.  Kris and I also are talking about doing a stop motion video.  We want to do produce battle raps between fruits versus vegetables.  I just wrote up the banana vs. head lettuce verses.  The video will hopefully be raunchy produce battling and I figured that the lyrics could also be semi-educational because I'm just talking about produce which is something I never learned about in school.

A.  Journal has been on a halt.  (Heard you Calling)

B.  I want to start working on music again but I feel like it could be too much for me.

Also been playing a lot of borderlands.

Other things I have been doing

I think I touched up on this on a few of my other posts but I wanted to actually formally address them.

 http://mammothparticles.bandcamp.com/   
First off is probably my main project.  My friend Dakota (who is 1./2 of http://mammothrecords.bandcamp.com/album/for-the-floor-of-your-car) and I used to be a band called Twin Pipes (http://soundcloud.com/halucigens/sets/twin-pipes-two-strangers/)  But he is in Massachusetts and I am back home in Illinois.  We are trying to send music to each other but he's a busy man so he's worked only on 1 of the songs.

Then there is this.  My buddy Sean who goes to Columbia and works with me at Meijer started a blog about television, movies and video games.  I pretty much write bias reviews for him and use this outlet to be funny, critique the things I enjoy and figure out why I enjoy them, and to do something.  It's been fun and even though it's only him and I who have been posting the majority of the content, it's a little thing I do whenever I find time.  Pretty unserious stuff.

Finally there is some more music I have been making.  This is all instrumental for now as I work up the courage to do other stuff with more experimental qualities.  I kind of want start rhyming but can't seem to get the lyrics out of my head.  So I just make music that feeds that tendency and It's always fun doing live work.  Most of my music is live.  I record the productions live then go over it with another instrument and perform live.  Then I sing live throughout the whole song.

Finally there is a few things I have been writing.  My journal "Heard you Calling" has been just my lyrics and some of my reviews as of lately.  A few sprinkled poems and maybe a few sentences.  I have also been working on Daedra loves Dick.It's pretty out there.  Stalker Narrator, alternative reality, absurd reality (which one?), love triangles and mystery and contemporary.
