johnny cash is one of favorite musicians [even though i dont like country]. his cover of Nine Inch Nails song "hurt" gives me goosebumps. you can hear the emotion in his voice. cash was able to put his own art into another one's art
oldie but a goodie
i wonder how long this took him/her to time this and figure out the finger thing...
there is another video out there that took the same idea but incorporate their bodies. i will have to find it later.
anywho. great timing and fun song.
enjoy Daft Punk.

slam poetry
something i have gotten into is slam poetry. there is a "dive" bar out in downtown bryan [tx] that i go to called revolutions and sometimes perform. the even is held every other sunday. the event is called "Speak!". it is a way for local poets, musicians, artist to showcase their talents in an environment that is pure art. it is a great feeling.
here is an example of a slam poet:
Saul Williams "Coded Language"

[why i am here]
this started as a blog about creativity for my ENDS class. what it has turned into is stuff that i enjoy. there are things that usually helps me when i need some inspiration. the things on here are by no means the only things i enjoy, but these are things that i think other people would enjoy as well. i felt this was the BEST way for me to show what helps me create and be creative. I felt as though this also best represented how my generation lives. the internet. on the web. this is how we roll. i plan to keep this going for as long as i am interested in things. :]

some background on this.
24hr theatre and Alpha Psi Omega has a philanthropy project every year. basically what we do is either 24 hrs of straight theatre performance and as of last year we do what can be simplified as the one day play (a play is written, memorized, blocked, lit, staged all in one day for a paying audience). two years ago we decided we needed a more creative way to advertise for our project. we decided "freezes" at rudder plaza would be a good way. he are the results.
