A Transformer-Robot-Dinosaur who makes art.

I'm a Fibre Major student at OCAD in Toronto.

I make things. This is a process blog/art journal of things I make, things that inspire me, and things that I like.

Last night I played Cards Against Humanity with some great people (the lovely Amanda and Hillary amongst them), and we had a “random card” for every round.  I was the only one who picked the random card, and the three times it happened were just so perfect/perfect for me, we all agreed there must have been a Gay Poltergeist in the room.  
Gay Poltergeist is my spirit animal.  I’ll follow him anywhere.

So I’m going through the process photos I’ve taken so far of the 3D foam letters I’m working on, and this looks like a great photo, until you take a closer look at all the things I have on my notice board behind it.

This probably won’t be going into my thesis documentation binder.  Sadly.

seriously, though.

The Leg Pocket: because it’s Pride, and underwear don’t have pockets.

So this is my solution: a pocket that can strap to my leg and can hold my [shitty] phone and my [broken] iPod.  Huzzah!
Also, much more superhero-esque than a fanny-pack.

GUYS, GUYS! Something awesome happened, you guys!  This.  This happened.  Life is awesome, you guys.  So awesome.

Also, Gay Nerds will also be a Fringe show, you guys: let’s all go see it.

It doesn’t matter if I’m gay or bi or straight or transgendered or intersex or queer-identifying or a transvestite, it simply doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is I’m white. Regardless of what I do in my bedroom, I’m still a white, middle-class male, which means I still get invited to dinner parties; that’s my rock. Until the carbon tax rips this country in two in a giant explosion of lava and death and zombies and hell, I’m going to be just fine.

“My dear fellow,” said Sherlock Holmes as we sat on either side of the fire in his lodgings at Baker Street, “life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs, and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outré results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable.” - Arthur Conan Doyle, ‘A Case of Identity’.

So I’ve been talking with a friend about how much I want to make a Sherlock Homo blog, and just quote all the parts in the novel(s) that are amazingly gay; basically it would be a lot like this.  But more so.So… yes?  I should do it?

Everyone should go to this for all the reasons.

Last night at Buddies, Donnarama once again outdid herself: a Sound of Music Do-Re-Mi/Goat Herder mix/mash up and the most amazing props you’d ever hope to see. 
There ain’t no other mother’.

My favourite photo from this year’s Pride.
Me and my fairy god father, Chris, at my home away from home, Buddies in Bad Times Theatre.

Just when I thought I couldn’t possibly look any gayer: I put on an ascot.
