x is for xavier: Xavier Veilhan


Today, visual art meets music. The (surprisingly) small sculptures on the cover of Air's Pocket Symphony were made by Xavier Veilhan.

I'm going to run out of art Xs soon... x-ray, xylophone, xavier.... What else? I guess I'll just have to recycle somehow. (Though it was hard to find the ones I found before. Quick, people, make more art about x-rays and xylophones! I'll post it here! Maybe I'll just try to make my own. There isn't enough art about things that start with X in the world.)

I've been thinking a lot lately about all the random people that I find online. Many of us are pretty boring and insignificant. I guess that's okay. Its just interesting to see so many people leaving traces of themselves.

08-22-10. Egg drop soup memento mori.

It's pretty sad to read all these people describing how grossed-out they were to handle a whole dead chicken. Where do they think fried drumsticks come from? Too many of us are out of touch with nature, death, and reality.

v is for volcano: Justin Moore
