What I've been up to recently…(inventing, singing, drawing, hosting, writing, designing, learning, and thinking...)

Welcome to my blog!

I have recently been invited to apply to work on a doctorate with an amazing team and lab. I would like to document the journey to getting to that point, and hopefully throughout.

To begin, I am throwing down some random things I have been working on recently.

Below are some examples of ideas and concepts I’m trying to develop.

I will try to update this blog as I continue creating. Please come back and be a part of the conversation.

First iterations of the Twanger. A non-digital effects to guitars or other string instruments.

Copper wire bent to fit on the neck of a string instrument. When leaning forward the Twanger will touch and sing off of a string. There is a counter weight on the top that hold the Twanger in place. There is a loose backing used to tune and fit the Twanger onto the neck of the instrument.

Hosting open mics and open drawing sessions. Open to poetry, comedy, music, art, and people.

Urban photography - NYC is a bustling and growing city. But the veins that it draws it’s life blood from are the subways.

Some figure drawing.

Some sketches. Most of these are done in my little sketchbook while standing in a subway car.

One of my board games that I’m working on. It’s really fun! I need to make an art direction before I’m comfortable selling the idea.
