Cripple Fight

I have a lot of spare time and little to no internet presence
This is my older brother rowan.He’s been traveling around the world for the last couple of moths and generally getting ion trouble. recently he’s been int the middle east travelling through turkey, Iran, afghanistan,Israel, Palestine and eygpt. Earlier this week he was in eygpt, he went in what he thought was an abandoned hotel and took some pictures. It turned out it was the old headquarters of Mubarek.He got arrested while there and ended up being put into an Egyptian jail.He was held for three days with out council, translators or an opportunity to contact anyone. He got put in a cell with 20 other persons and while he was there got attacked twice, threatened with razor blades and generally treated like shit. after awhile he was released overnight for his protection due in no small part by his friend Cleo who went far and beyond in helping contact us, get on news crews and the aus consulate.upon returning in the morning he was allowed to see a judge and finally an aus representative. He was released form and was them proceeded to be interrogate by the egyptian intelligence agents.It turns out they believed he was a foreign spy, hence the poor treatment, but was eventually declared a non-risk and set free. He is now leaving eygpt to head to new york  and despite the traumatic ordeal is for all intensive purposes ok. Thankyou to everyone who helped him and sent there wishes. He writes a blog here  and you can read about all the other misadventure and close calls he has had. Despite Rowan and I not having a great deal in common, the tendency to get in trouble and that ‘calculated’ risk definitely seems to run in our family. blog: Roligion.com

This seems somewhat appropriate to appear on my dash seeing as how im writing an essay on Otto Dix whose major theoretical influence is some Nietzsches works and I’ve been staring for days at his works like this…

“It seemed as though everything was bound to collapse, but factory chimneys went on smoking, bank-clerks neatly wrote out astronomical figures, prostitutes painstakingly made up their faces…at every turn there were small..dancehalls where lean couples conscientiously jigged up and down. Jazz blared. I remember two popular songs: ‘yes, we have no bananas’ and ‘Tomorrow’s the end of the world.’ However, the end of the world was postponed from one day to the next”

-Ilya Ehrenberg recalling Germany in the early 1920’s after the first world war.

sans-pants:

I feel like no one ever talks about bunyips anymore.

or Bilbys, are they fine now or did they all die out because people started thinking they were just a fictional creature invented to amuse kids on easter?

My main problem when trying to do art theory essays is, whenever im reading about an artist or theory I start getting ideas for work and get completely sidetracked until i realise i’ve finished reading the page and have no idea what I just read.

Went to the doc’s, she said im not dying but to go on antibiotics just to be sure.*segue* My hairs pretty much at the point where i need to cut it, but what to do?

so I went to pick up my work but apparently someone bought it……..as a gift. This is something I really didn’t see coming for the following reason, who the hell buys a display case filled with roaches and a twinkle? Don’t get me wrong i’m stoked but what do i do now, i told the gallery to give the buyer my email address so i can tell them proper cockroach care and where to buy twinkies but beyond that i got nothing. People are whack yo

This is the work i’ve been talking about, the show opened tonight. I got an honourable mention, which technical is nothing, more importantly every was talking about it and everyone i talked to seemed to like it but whats not to like about cockroaches and twinkies.

ps trying to herd cockroaches is a lot harder then you’d think
