Ah, hospital we meet again! No, I didn't stab myself with a knife while trying to scoop ice cream, and no I didn't sustain a crushing injury by the El or even break my hand, I infected my foot with germs via toothpick puncture! YAY FOR ME! I told you I was a graceful swan! Goddamnit let me be a graceful swan! ONE day and it got this bad - but I'm on antibiotics.

No pictures as of yet, but you wouldn't want to see the oozing anyway.


yay!

OK! Pictures of the studio:

Exposure unit fully functioning! - all lights go to one power strip. (Not shown: Screen, foam, 3/4 inch thick glass slab for better contact)




high tech design area! (ha!)


First emulsion test: as you can see, the lower part of the screen did not expose long enough! 7min 40 sec. is our winner! (This still needs some fine tuning) - didn't wash the back of the screen well enough either)


First actual drawing to be exposed in my inhome studio: but, ya it was just a random crappy image from my sketch book, oh well!


TA-DA! first test prints! - not what I'd call good work, but my set up works! Whoo! Learned that my homemade expose unit works backwards, meaning I have to flip the image when I burn it.


I have an image burned into my fabric screen and shirts, but my camera batteries died and my seeping foot doesn't want me to walk to the store - so next time!

And here is my balcony right now, a few saterdays ago I got drunk off shiraz and danced on it for a few hours enjoying the sun and herbs


I'll be on the computer a bit in the next day, I can't work because it feels like something is eating my leg off everytime I take a step. My computer is working, and i fucking suck for not getting on in such a long time. I miss so many things.

all my blood,
