a big fucking corkboard
For the first time in more than 10 years I've a raging desire to buy a big fucking corkboard and fill it with index cards with scenes and scraps and phrases and stuff on them (in no particular order), a desire to bring the tactile prototyping approach to thinking that metal (or cardboard and tape) brings to the present (and far-preferred) iteration of my creative practice. Not sure what these hypothetical cards are meant to become – I remain proudly medium agnostic until the time comes to declare my project-faith – though I do know it will be something a.) I can do on my own (or learn to do on my own) and/or b.) nifty, the latter of which is really all that interests me these days. Or, perhaps, it's all just a desire to redecorate The Shed and make one of the walls more useful than as a shelf for things that could and probably should be shelved elsewhere because they're going to fall on me any day now.
metal_0038 :: squibs
Latest Shed-friend, a re-do of one of my earliest pieces and another chance to combine 3D printing and design (the thought / word balloon) with metal (everything else). Most of Squibs was, once upon a time, a plant stand, chainlink fence post, a wrench, and a glockenspiel frame.
