Oh Boy...
1.) My last show at Cervantes went pretty well. I was able to get my main point across twice, which was: "Peace is Possible...it just takes a little Love!"
Unfortunately BigTimeEntertainment cut short my set by 10 minutes. I personally think I've played for them enough, and fed them enough money to warrant the full 30 minutes that they originally promised me. It won't happen again, as I have let them know that my minimum is 30 minutes or I'm just going to keep the ticket money and throw a 45 minute set in a public place. If I play any more shows with BigTime, they will probably be my last.
They are wasting my time!
Because they cut me so short, I was unable to finish what I was trying to explain to everyone. So I left everyone with a cliche statement, that I'm sure wasn't taken to heart!
What I truly wanted to say was:
"Love is simply having the patience to understand that we are all human, and that we all make mistakes. Also that we can only learn from our mistakes, as successes only feed our ego. If we are able to exhibit this patience to the people around us, we begin to respect each other, and through respect, we can learn to love one another. And through respect we can achieve Peace!"
2.) A serious situation is right around the corner. Global cereal crops will be depleted in about 12 weeks. With energy in all it's guises so high priced, I'm guessing that we are going to have a large scale famine on our hands as the poorer populations run short on food, and places reliant on import go into serious times.
The average piece of food is shipped 1,500 miles before it is consumed. With cheap oil and coal gone, we won't be able to ship foods around the country. With the main crops about to be out-of-season, it seems that only the regions around where the food is grown will benefit from this.
I'm not even getting into all the new government initiatives to start using more of our food crops for bio-fuel crops.
Then of course we have the fresh water crisis, the population crisis, the peak oil crisis, the corrupt elite crisis...the list goes on and on...
We have inherited a laundry list of troubles from six decades of greed and a capitalist-materialist mindset...
This is going to be a VERY rough ride down...
We are all going to feel the impact at full force...
I hope you are all taking actions to prepare for this!
3.) Fallen Angel: Episode 1, the first installment of the highly anticipated animated web-series (of which I have been doing special effects animation for) has finally been given a solid release window:
Late August/Early September, 2008
Be sure to stay tuned for Euphoria Productions' venture into the post-apocalyptic!

Philosophy Regarding Our Zeit Geist
Today at work I began a conversation with a strange old woman at work. This woman, although eccentric, was an advocate for progressive thinking.
She had heard me talking to a co-worker about 9-11. I was explaining how it was a false flag attack, orchestrated and committed by our own government, to secure support for a war effort that the Bush family, among other higher ups (Rockefellers, Rothschilds, Morgans), had worked toward for years, and she approached me to discuss the state of the world and it's politics.
It was a very long conversation, covering many topics, but they all revolved around what we must do. We must be active within our community and spread the truth to the ignorant or miss-told. We discussed how the machine has gotten so large and so powerful that no one person, no matter their power, influence, or bank account, can make a dent in the machine.
She is a part of Ron Paul's organization, the Campaign for Liberty, which you should join! (www.campaignforliberty.com) They send you information on how to remain active within your community ;)
Anyway, so she was telling me how they are trying to get like-minded people into office all over the country, because simply getting a single logical president in office won't make a difference. The corruption is too great, and even the greatest of us will fall to it's temptation. I never thought about it, but it makes perfect sense, kill the machine from the outside in!
Although Ron Paul is no longer in the presidential race, he is still trying to change the world. Obama would of went back to being rich as soon as he left the race, and you know that! The only thing he is trying (and probably going) to change is the color of our president...I don't know why people don't understand that he is just trying to sustain America when we need massive change!
Anyway, we both agreed that the most people can really do right now, until there is a majority of realistic human beings in offices around the country, is educate.
It is our duties to the idea that this Country once was to educate it's people about how to enact change and work to make things better.
As a great man once said:
"...I am asking for your help, in the tremendous task of alerting and informing the American people, with the hope that man will be what he was born to be: Free and Independent!"
-John F. Kennedy
On another note, I read something horribly troubling today...
800 miles NorthEast of Hawaii, in between San Francisco and Hawaii, floats a garbage dump TWICE THE SIZE OF TEXAS.
I'm sure you haven't heard of this, but it is a very big deal.
Early scientific reports say that this garbage is being ingested by marine life, as well as greatly polluting the water. What does this mean? Well, if you eat a fish that ate a fish that ate a fish that ate a fish that ate some of this garbage, your children, or yourself may be prone to become infertile or obese, among a laundry lists of health hazards. This is a VERY big deal!
Also, the US government is well aware of this, but refuse to clean it up until they can properly tax the effort...so in other words, they refuse to clean it up until they can profit from doing so...
Yeah...
I guess keeping our Planet from bursting into flames and killing off the human race due to infertality isn't profit in itself...
Maybe it's my priorities that are all out of whack...
.::Maybe::.
P.S. - Atleast I can comfort myself with the knowledge that the human race is doomed no matter what we do, anyway...Maybe that's why things are so bad, people know the end is near and are taking no regard for safety or logic. Want proof that minkind's reign is almost done?!

Our generation will have front row center for the destruction too...thank your parent!

Specifics
1.) Fallen Angel: Episode 1
---- I remember seeing the trailer by Rob Robertson for his portrayal of life after nuclear fall-out almost a decade ago. After that I became a member of Fallen Angel's community, later proving my worth as a flash animator and getting the position of Fallen Angel Animation Assistant. To date I am still the only other animator besides Rob that is working on the film. I was commissioned to do special effects animations such as fire, explosions, smoke, et cetera. We have now been working on the film for over four years now, and we are quickly nearing completion. I am very honored to be a part of this, as I believe it will shake the independent flash animation world! Currently I have 2-4 more scenes to animate effects for, and my contributions will be complete. I will post a link as soon as it goes online!
---- I am hoping that my efforts for Episode 1 will convince Rob to retain my services for Episode 2. I hope that I will also be given more responsibilities, be it helping to develop the story, or doing animation of any kind.
2.) A Day on Colfax
---- I have written and storyboarded this animation, and I am currently in negotiation with a couple voice-actors to help me lay down the vocal tracks for the short animated film. As soon as I have the vocal tracks I can begin roughing out the gestures of the characters, and it will only be a matter of time before it is completed!
---- The story, if there is one, follows the tale of an intoxicated homeless man as he explains a faint memory to a stranger on the street.
---- If things continue to go at the speed they are going, I may be able to complete this animation by the end of Summer 2008.
3.) Life After Death
---- After literally years and years of conception, I have finally begun writing the story I was born to write. It is a screenplay set in the near future during the beginning of the upcoming resource wars, and follows a young man who is simply trying to survive in a world of corruption, greed, and malice. It is, in it's most basic form, a philosophical discussion of perspective within one's life. I will maintain updates here about it's progress.
---- It is far too early to discuss a release window, but as soon as I have an idea I will post it!
4.) Birds on a Wire
---- This is an idea for an original animation which is still in pre-production and conception. The idea is credited to both myself and DJ Frito Procore (Fritz). As soon as I finish A Day on Colfax I will begin production on this short film.
5.) July 24th at Cervantes
---- I will be playing a 30 minute set of progressive folk rock at Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom on Thursday Night, July 24th at 6:30pm. There's plenty of time, so make sure you get at me to buy your pre-sale tickets!
---- I am hoping to have a few new original songs prepared for this show!
Stay tuned for more soon!
