hello again bunnies
sorry about the recent radio silence, but i've been rather busy for the past couple of days.
on thursday i had an excellent piss-up... er, i mean... i saw an excellent art exhibition opening at artspace. david haynes and joyce hinterding both teach at my school and they are showing their work purple rain in artspace atm.
i had seen images and video clips of the work before but seeing it irl was quite different. the space was really well set up and the sound just absolutely made the work. the sound was something you felt rather than heard and combined with the video work it really worked. i was impressed.
the olek kulik work was kinda interesting too... nothing like dolling up art-wanky-wise, prancing around with a glass of white wine in a gallery, while perving on a wall size screen showing really fucked up nudity/porn shit. tho i have to admit that i didn't really get that much out of it past the giggle/perv aspect. still, you just gotta luv art...
besides, i just love the fact that in these exhibition openings there are my best uni mates and my lecturers, all pissing up side by side and just having a great time.

on friday i did a crazy day at work...
there is an aboriginal arts auction coming up, so i had to do all the authenticity certificates to go with the works. 450 of them to be exact. did a lot of copy/paste and insert image yesterday. like a LOT. in fact, i think my poor fingers are still cramping a bit.
got them all done, just to hear that it was supposed to be two days of work. they were really impressed that i did the whole lot in one. which naturally was really fucken stupid of me, since i'm paid by the hour. heh. stoopid scandinavian efficiency...
anyway bunnies, time to whip up a near perfection soy flat white to open my eyes.
