Went to see Wicked tonight at the Aronoff Center. First time seeing it, and thought it was a really good show with great musical performances. I enjoyed the twists.

From NPR
Using an array of vintage memorabilia, a novel told in the form of a scrapbook follows Frankie Pratt, a young girl in the 1920s whose dreams of becoming a writer lead her from Vassar to adventures abroad.

Davention: Deconstruction/Construction
Davention: Deconstruction/Construction
Based on the sketches of Leonardo Da Vinci
Went to Goodwill, found an old alarm clock, took it apart, reconstructed it, and made a new design out of it. Giving new form to an existing appliance much in the same way a caterpillar becomes a butterfly.

Out of Context
Out of Context
This project took me an hour to complete. If you knew what these dots were for you would understand, but as is it doesn't make sense and seems like a complete waste of time. I like it that way.
Sometimes there's a beauty about mystery. In the age of social media it seems we have lost some of this beauty.

I've always been more of a Nerds fan...
and now my lips can taste of rainbow Nerds throughout the day!

Orange M&Ms
Orange M&Ms
I don't eat much chocolate, but it's decent stuff. I'm not the biggest fan of M&Ms, but I'll eat them... as long as they're orange. As part of my OCD that dates back to my youth, the orange M&Ms are the only ones that appeal to me. They stand out, and therefore must be eaten.
