    That’s all for now. Will be writing some new posts soon!

     
  2. What has been up with me ~

    Ok so the Queer Art of Failure is a very good book and it opens with a quote from Spongebob Squarepants so go read it.

    Also a bike I worked on was in the North American Handmade Bike Show.

    and here is a very rough draft of a screen print that should be done by the end of this week.

    I got sunburns on my arms from TIG welding. Next time wear long sleeves.

    Notes: 1

    Researching contemporary queer artists and art historians. I pretty much nerd out over this stuff.

    so far:

    -Judith Jack Halberstam

    -Tina Takemoto

    -Robert Gober

    -Sarah Swaty

    -Laurel Golio

    -Zanele Muholi

    Maybe I could get the Queer Student Artists at MassArt to sponsor a lecture or workshop?

    Your daily dose of overhyped but still good fine art:

    Mark Bradford - White Painting

    and some hip music

    Anyhow this week has been super busy with new people and places. Welding, machining, woodworking, screen printing, drawing, researching. 

    I’m seeing waxahatchee tomorrow

    and I can’t wait.

     
  5. Hey So I am switching this to tumblr to make it easier to follow and search.  Here is all my prolific blog posting form the html days though (now in easy plain text form!)

    In case anyone over in the tumblr verse is wondering this is now my website’s blog interface thingamajig. frankokosicmatulic.com

    How I’ve been feeling…

    Shows that I would actually go to right now:

    -Bad Banana

    -Waxahatchee

    -Toby Foster

    -Now, Now

    -Jeffrey Lewis

    School is starting in two days…

    I met someone very cool today who shared a lot of the same attitudes about the shitty culture that revolves around punk music scenes. The same things that made Minor Threat so fucked up is exactly what is happening in punk music today on a lot of different levels and no one wants to admit it.

    But I have tattoo of a dead bird on my forearm

    <iframe width=”420” height=”315” src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/A9b561e2Gp4” frameborder=”0” allowfullscreen></iframe>

    and I’m fine with that.

    Zines I don’t want to make and never want to see again:

    - Anything about mustaches (please get over it)

    - Perfect Bound collections of journal articles that are actually peer-reviewed academic journals

    - Pre-Y2K ramblings of how to survive in the wild on a vegan diet once the world ends

    Ok so this is my first blog entry to what I think is going to be something like a tumblr/xanga/wordpress combined because it’s my website and I get to to whatever I want to (that’s how it works right?). 

    Writing this while waiting for someone in a hospital lounge. Just watched someone try to walk into the Au Bon Pain across the hall but the door was locked. Their sigh was really intense.

    <strong>Things Im into right now:

    </strong>

    - giving people rides to hospitals

    - honey

    - Gregg Araki

    <strong>Things I’m not into right now:

    </strong>

    - discourse

    - vegan politics

    - post-industrial identity crisis
