So Baltimore has been bummer fest for the last week or so but things started a changing last night for the best ever. I also saw my favorite artist perform the following cover. It's sick. But also you should check out his other stuff cause it's awesome.
His band's name is Final Fantasy
his name is owen pallett.
Do it to it.

Let's Kick it, til it Breaks
So I haven't updated in a while mainly because things have been really crazy. Real life kinds of crazy and not for on the web kinds of crazy.
Baltimore is getting buck wild.
I'v been hearing a lot through the grape vine about a pirate radio station starting up and am really excited about that project. It's so amazing that for 150$-500$ you can broadcast an FM signal to your entire community. As a measure of resistance it's hard to beat.
Other things have happened too. Cindy Crabb graced our industrial city for a week or so and that was really amazing. Filled with free desserts and automatons roaming the city setting fire to varying buildings.
Today I'm interviewing with a family to hopefully be their nanny. I hope it works out.
Be well,
M

Grambelstiltskin
i got my first letter at my new home today. It' was really invigorating.
Like remembering that you have feet. Or a Pulse.
After dumpster diving for what felt like all day long I managed a meager score of 11 boxes of vegan fake pepperoni and vegan balogna....Gross
and an Onion. MMMM onion and bologna stir fry.
4 separate dumpsters. I mean really that is ridiculous for America. How can i claim to be from a gluttonous wasteful place if i can't at a moments notice pull a weeks worth of food from the trash. I guess i could have taken home the plastic corn or the empty easter basket but wasn't feeling to inventive.
Anyways after all of that I got a call from a friend...turns out theirs a Baltimore dumpstering collective because the best and greatest dumpsters are far far away, and only accessible via car. They bring the load in, everyone contributes a little for gas, and walla juice forever and some good produce and cheese for 20-30 people.
Amazing.

Mad Science
I am amazed at the world.
As we all know their are satellites flowing through the universe sending little microcosms back to earth via pictures. While most people can't even begin to fathom the inner workings of infinite space these picture maintain a mental atmosphere of false recognition.
But what about the visually impaired?
Well a book has been unveiled called Touch The Invisible Sky where Doris Dow in Braille describes the pictures taken from various satellites.
Also Doris is able to create tactile impressions of things as phenomenal as say the Sun.
I can't even imagine closing my eyes and feeling slight grooves on paper
and it clicking. OHHHHH thats what they mean when they say the sun.
Regardless It's on my list of treasures to have. And It's free. I think.
Oh and for those who dance.

Guerilla Girls and Mad Science
So I'm finding myself starting over once again in Baltimore MD. A place that feels both welcoming and isolating. Things have been unfolding like Spring and clockwork. It was an accident really. I was supposed to be flying out of Baltimore and into Barcelona but a chronic illness seems to warrant a small stay in Baltimore.
I'm moving into a giant warehouse artist's space today. It is both beautiful and rugged. It's potential unlimited. I'm thinking about building a dark room to facilitate screen printing projects and am working on building a camera obscura to reflect the greenmount cemetery into the warehouse.
In a few months I will be back on track to Barcelona healthy in body and mind, but for now am excited about being intoxicated within a new city.
To Baltimore,
Cheers.
