octobre!

between lectures on infanticide and discussions on some of hemingways and faulkners more depressing works, school has left me in a state of eeyore-esque mind frame. npr has brought me out of my funk (where would i be without npr?!) by providing me with this:

that's what i call extraordinary.

also extraordinary: last week i attended the sigur ros performance at the schnitz. i snuck my camera in, but while trying to respect others i limited my flash use. i think i was able to manage a few decent shots just the same.

leading a sing-a-long

they had beautiful film clips and pictures projecting off and on throughout the show which only added to the magical feel of their music

playing 'gobbledigook'

and now i must return to the land of education where i will learn how to doctor up my sad pieces of ceramic creations with color.
