So This Happened

Not exactly germane to my project, but this is what Ben himself did to the GIF I made of him punching the punching bag...

You might not understand this. You don't have to. It just had to be.

Pared Down XML file

I'm re-working the way the visual 'noise' is displayed so I went from over 100 snippets of text down to 11 that will repeat over and over on the screen. These are all things I have personally had said and/or written to me:

What were you wearing?

You should say thank you

Smile!

What's wrong, princess?

Hysterical feminist

You were asking for it

But most rape reports are false

You have a good body, but it could be better

Don't be so emotional

Cunt

Crazy bitch

You're probably just on your period

Here’s a preview of the new zine I’ll be selling at SPX!

Common Curses & Blessings is a 2-in-1 mini-zine about the most mundane and insignificant things the universe throws at you. They probably shouldn’t even have an impact on your day, but they totally do.

Read it facing one way, and you’ll read about the curses. Flip it over and read about the blessings. You’ll just have to come to SPX and see how it works! 2-color risograph printed, 4.25” x 5.5”. 16 pages, 8 curses, 8 blessings. Come to table A12 and check it out!

It was late Monday night and, knowing full-well that I had to wake up early for work the next day, I was buried deep in the Twitter hashtag #YesAllWomen, reading story after story of the aggression women face in their daily lives. Soon, it was early Tuesday morning and I was still awake, still reading.
