Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Boobies But Were Understandably Afraid to Ask:

Well, I debated for several weeks about whether to post this or not; Rachel Bloom is a total scream, but she definitely goes over the limit, especially with her other videos. This one is the least offensive and has a lot of broad physical humor, the kind that made burlesque what it was. I think it’s mostly harmless, but it does underscore the interests of humans, flat or round, and illuminates the chief sport of biped males — to touch a stranger’s boobs. I guess it sort of makes sense — there is little else to provide amusement for the 60-90 years you have to wait to die.

Hot Lips Ready for Action

Workbench with tarot card original paintings sometime around midnight:IMG_0733

I’ll soon be posting the decks that are currently available — they now number 16 artwork decks and 2 absolutely stunning high-detail intricate and beautiful 3-D full color decks — the medieval and the dragon decks, actually, both of which are total knockouts. You’ve never seen a deck with this level of detail before, not ever. The Norton Street deck is currently a work in progress, and should be completed within a week or two. The decks pictured above are from my “Mango Girl” series, intended as guides for my commercial, advertising, layout, animation and fashion designers and comic and book illustrators. If you’re interested in becoming a commercial artist, you might inquire about my current art courses. Ah, I mentioned “Hot Lips” at the start of this posting…it’s one of the Mango Girl series, in this case, 80 fully tarted-up hotties on their way to a Hugh Hefner party.

Hitman Hilarious

http://youtu.be/0EG39RcLkvc

Couldn’t resist posting this piece of hysterically hilarious nonsense from several of the best. Note please the timing, simultaneity and in some cases precognition that takes place in this stunningly effective exercise. I’ve used it in workshops, and if you have instinctives doing the thing, it works amazingly well to reveal the spontaneous and the ingenious — in the old “genie” sense of the word. It takes a tremendous amount of combined skills to do what they’re doing — language, history, music, styles and a never-ending well of rhyming combinations, not to mention a staggering supply of energy and supple muscles. Enjoy. I’m going back to staging and shooting my latest, the Norton St. Tarot Deck, screenshot entirely in Norton Street Orb, coming soon to your local grocer!

What To Do If You Wake Up

http://youtu.be/ghA5oOPE-xg

What happens when people just know too much and see too much to be amused by ordinary organic life? Jenna Marbles is one of my favoritest peoples on the planet; even she, with her beautiful attitude, after a while spent observing the human population, you’re bound to get cynical. Sure, you go about the usual daily business — you do what everyone seems to be doing: you survive. You endure parental control, try to learn something in a total fail school system designed to make money for the politicians and bankers. You discover sex, make out, have babies, work like hell to survive, never hear from your grandkids or get very far beyond a trip to Europe, then you get sick and die. Is this the kind of sales pitch for an amusement ride? Is this the sort of entertainment you’d expect to see billions flocking to get into? Well, apparently, it works, because there are currently 7.2 billion idiots flopping about like beached minnows on this planet. For someone who sees past the bullpuckey of organic involvements, this video will make sad and tragic sense. If you want more, you’ll have to pay with interest, attention and participation — three major obstacles for local humans,  beyond which they can’t get. Want to know why?

Re-Awaken Your Ancient Egyptian Memories

egyptcard

Egyptian Deck? Workin’ on it. I’ll need the god pantheon models, and they’re likely to take some time to build — we won’t find them on some 3D model website. I have all the architecture in already, and many of the objects of daily use, ritual items and tomb items. I’ll be working on this set for some time; in the meanwhile, I’ve completed 12 tarot decks to date, some in watercolors, some in ink & wash, some in GODD screenshots, as above. Today, I’m working specifically to shoot the lower arcana of my Dragon Deck — it takes place in a medieval setting with all new Middle Ages architecture, plus 22 new medieval character models. It’s quite spectacular. I had the thought of expanding my photo Orb so it could be traveled. Perhaps I’ll do that. The Egyptian Tarot is photographed in “Amarna”, which is intended to re-awaken buried memories of your past lives in Ancient Egypt.

Medieval Tarot is Ready!

titlecard

This is the title card for the Medieval Tarot, composed entirely in the GODD engine. There are 78 thematic cards plus a joker and the title card, for a total of 80 full-color cards in all. Claude created over 100 costume variations for these characters, and a whole slew of medieval buildings, clothing, objects of daily use such as the cart and besom broom, and of course all the rest of the textures and models you will see in the deck. Val’s engine has been modified specially for me to give me a virtual camera that is sizeable to the image I want to generate, meaning that I can change the aspect ratio to make differently shaped and sized tarot cards or dollhouse scale images. This deck is available now at $49, as long as we can hold the cost line — it may change upward really soon, to $69, if we can’t control the cutting costs. We’ll talk more about this at the workshop this morning.

A New Kind of Tarot

tarot00

Just invented, hot off the presses! Actually, we haven’t tried printing it yet, but here’s what happened and how it happened: I asked Marvette to create a template tarot system that anyone could use; it would have the cards already identified in a box below the image area. All the artist would have to do is fill in the part where a drawing, painting or photograph should be. Suddenly, this morning, I had the idea to insert part of a screenshot from one of my favorite Orbs, and we had a brand new kind of tarot deck. We’re making a sample now to show at the workshop, starting this Thursday morning. If you want to attend online, there’s still time to arrange it.

Good Angels, Bad Angels

encha012

I’ve installed a PC on Norton Street. It’s equipped with a 17″ monitor and Creative speaker Bass Reflex system, along with a logitech 3 button mouse that will literally last forever. As you see, there’s also a set of crystals plugged into an experimental Model 7 SuperBeacon “Beamer”. You’ll also note a Matrix on the left wing of the desk, a bronze Buddha and ceramic candleholder on the right, and two new bookshelves offering entry into hundreds more Orbs than before, actually 1100 of them, newly made here on Urth this time around.

It’s In The Cards

http://youtu.be/lVvGAledjiw

It’s all in the cards. The Ancients knew that and that’s why they consulted the cards. Each of the Tarot Cards in a standard 78 card deck (plus 1 title card & 1 joker) represents something emotional, instinctive, reflexive, mental, intellectual, analytical, reactive and sometimes supernormal essential-self, but relative to each other in positions within a 10-card reading, you get variations. This is why it needs a workshop. Also, different decks have different languaging, sometimes. For instance: Wands. Could just as easily be Sticks, or Clubs, which is what it became in our standard poker decks. Wands could also be Roods, Durga, Staves, Billys, Crooks, Shafts or Blasting Rods, a la Moses and his next of kin. I’m in the middle of creating the Vampire Deck. The ICW this morning is where I’ll be.
