I made a new deviantart because I'm bored with this one's username, haha. (I barely fucking post shit anymore, and I decide to start a new account. I need a life.)

Yeah, so I've not quite kept the promise to be more creative. I'm trying, I really am. I uploaded a half-assed piece that really isn't anything special, but maybe it'll help ease me back into the creative process. (In reality, I think I'm just too lazy to be prolific, haha.)
I purchased the Criterion Collection's "Three Films By Hiroshi Teshigahara" yesterday. It was expensive, but well worth it. Pitfall is such a great film. (As are the other two films in the set, but Pitfall is my favourite.) I also ordered Max Ernst's "Une Semaine de Bonté" yesterday. Hopefully they'll help spur my creativity more, as will watching INLAND EMPIRE over and over. (Bought that motherfucker the day it came out on DVD and it is spectacular.)
I've been thinking of ideas for short story/screenplay writing purposes as well, but I can't find my good pens (they always fucking disappear, it's amazing) and I hate writing in my notebooks with shitty pens. (I'm weird like that.) Thursday = payday = good pen buying day. (I should buy some ink for my fountain pen, but it's really hard to get out to the art store, which is way further than the Wal-Mart where I buy my usual pens, haha.
In other news, today is my homegirl Acier's 20th birthday, so happy birthday to her.
Umm...I'm gonna go buy food I think. See you in hell!

So here's the deal

I'm going to start being creative. Fuck. I will make new art. I just uploaded a new ID to mark a new era of me pretending I'm going to do shit, then not really doing it. But I'm gonna try to actually do shit. Seriously. I also moved some stuff to my scraps, because I didn't want to delete it, but wasn't really pleased with it.
I've seen David Lynch's new film INLAND EMPIRE three times now, except the version I downloaded is dubbed in Italian. There's no English version available yet that I know of. (The official release date for the English Region 1 DVD is August 14.) Nevertheless, it is fucking incredible. I can only imagine how much I'll love it when I can actually understand the dialogue, haha.
I've also been trying to expand my creativity into filmmaking, which is a major artistic goal of mine. I've been working on ideas for both a short and feature length film. (Amusingly enough, some of the ideas I had thought of for my own shit were pretty similar to parts of INLAND EMPIRE, and this was before I had even seen the film. Clearly, I am far too obsessed with Lynch, haha, need to make a conscious effort not to rip him off too much.) Once I have money (see below) I'm going to get involved with the Newfoundland and Labrador Independent Filmmakers Cooperative. That should help me learn the ropes. Then I need more money. More and more money.
As of right now though, I am jobless, and bedless. It sucks. The joblessness is now just temporary until hopefuly July 30th at which point I should have a wonderful new call center job. Good times. Bedlessness is more my father's fault. He's had 10 months or more now, surely the opportunity has arisen at SOME point to get my bed out to my apartment from back home. Instead, I've been sleeping on an air mattress (which is atop two old, lumpy-as-fuck mattresses, for added height and some added comfort). That air mattress sprung a leak back in, I'd say March. Now when I wake up in the morning, it's probably three quarters deflated.
And with that, I leave you with a really good interview with the late, great Lester Bangs.

MP3: Part 1 - interviewsarchive.com/catalogu… / Part 2 - interviewsarchive.com/catalogu…
It's a 90 minute interview, the MP3s are about 10mb each. Definitely worth listening to if you're at all into rock music.

It's my 22nd birthday. I haven't submitted any art in ages, and my subscription has expired. Shitty.
Maybe I'll post something new soon. I hope. Maybe.
