Hi!

So I disappeared for a while. (Not like I have many followers who is interested in my shenanigans :D but mainly it's disappointing for myself because I really want to make this learning project to work.)

These last two months... but actually the last three were crazy. I am working in the film industry so production is usually couple of months (max. 2 years) long. And at the end (or 2/3) of the production is super busy. Overtime, even through the night... 4-5 hours of sleeping for weeks.... you get it. This was the case lately. In the beginning of October I managed to do inktober for almost 12 days but then multiple shit happened (mostly work and some other problems) and I was engrossed with them. Which is sad because October is one of my favourite months and I had big plans drawing-wise. Which I failed clearly.

But now. I finished my job one week ago (next starting on this thursday) and spent the last week with recreation (sleeping and reading) and making christmas presents (huge idiocracy but I love to make personal gifts for everyone and I have a huge family and kind a lot of close friends so for example this year I am making presents for 19 people (okay-okay, for some of them I am buying stuff but otherwise diy). Which is.... a clear sign that I am stupid.) Slowly but surely I am making it through the list. I'm gonna share a few of them here too, because only one of my friend is here on tumblr so the exception of her present I will show them. We just need some decent sunlight for photos....

Back to the four project per month system. I am not sure what to do. There was a plan for every week til March so now that I messed up I don't know if I should get back to the plan or like a madman try to do every failed October-November prompt. I am inclined for the latter because even if I like christmas, the autumn vibe is closer to my little soul and I was so hyped for making those drawings. So it's a huge possibility for me to share gothic vibed stuff in the middle of December We will see. I am sure I will finish the abandoned ink learning project and the remaining inktober prompts. I will also participating in two supernatural-themed bangs/fests (@dcwildwestfest and @mitskinaturalbang , also they're looking for artists to join to Mitskinatural, so please participate, it will be fun ;) ). Which is pretty exciting. They have priority. (I am really happy for these bangs.)

Enough of rambling, I just wanted to sit down and make a mental check up after I am not exhausted all the time. (Surprise.) Now I get back to creating stuff.

A-T-2 388 Fab 5 Freddy / Beside - Une Sale Histoire

Released as Change The Beat in the US. This was number 2 of the 5 record set with Futura 2000 covers that link up like this

If you look at this photo it says New York City Rap at the top. That's a reference to the tour of Europe that Deddie Harry's mate Fab 5 Freddy (Fred Brathwaite, not to be confused with the fab 4 as that's The Beatles) had a big hand in. Joking aside Fab 5 Freddy is an important figure and deserves all the props he gets. The tour is also celebrating it's 40th anniversary, NPR published this piece recently https://www.npr.org/2022/11/26/1137418347/new-york-city-rap-tour

There's a brilliant clip in the above article from the tour

So the record Une Sale Histoire, this is the record with the Ahh and Fresh sample in it, the scratch basics

Here is a history of that sample

The Ahh and Fresh samples come at the end of the b side which is where you find the 'Female Version' of Change The Beat/Une Sale Histoire. This was recorded by Ann Boyle then wife of Bernard Zekri who had lived with Futura 2000 and was close with socialite graffiti artist Fab 5 Freddy, together they organised the above New York City Rap Tour. Ann Boyle has many aliases Beside (or Beeside, or B-Side,) Fab 5 Betty (nice Flinstones ref there, yabadabadoo!) or Tribe 2. Under Tribe 2 she released What I Like which is the alternative 4th sleeve in the Futura set (there are two different 4th sleeves, The Smurfs and Tribe 2.) Ann Boyle was also in Bambaataa's Timezone and appears on The Wildstyle... so massively underrated contributor to hip-hop history. The story goes Fab 5 was struggling to record his verses of Change The Beat, they are trying English and French even Japanese to give it that hype, so to help Beside steps up and records the whole thing in French in one take, they love it and stick it on the b side

Fab 5 Freddy - Change The Beat

Bambaataa is credited with bringing the five elements of hip-hop together but y'know these guys did a lot to further that (some for better some for worse... commercial street art used to gentrify a neighbourhood, street dance! gymnastic breakdancing!)

And now for something completely different.

This is the ADHD Teapot. I made it in a ceramics class a few years ago. I use it to explain executive dysfunction to people who haven’t come across the term before (and those who think of ADHD mostly as Hyperactive Eight Year Old Boy Syndrome).

So, most people’s brains are like a regular shaped teapot with a single spout. Let’s say that your time, energy, focus etc is the liquid you have in the teapot. Your executive function is the spout, that directs the tea into the specific cup you want to fill-aka the task that you’re meant to be doing. Spills happen occasionally, but generally most of the tea goes in the right cup.

If you have executive dysfunction, (a symptom of ADHD, trauma, autism, schizophrenia etc.) you have multiple spouts going in different directions. You can try pointing one of them at your chosen cup and you will probably get some liquid in there, perhaps you will even fill it right up (finish the task). But meanwhile, tea is also pouring out of several other places and not going where you want it. If you have another container nearby, perhaps some of it will end up in there. But quite a lot of it is going to end up on the floor and accomplish nothing.

And at the end of the day you’ll have filled one or two cups ( or sometimes not even one) compared to the five or six that somebody with the same sized teapot (but only one spout) has filled, and everyone wonders why you’re so bad at getting tea poured, and why you make such a mess in the process.

One day I’d like to spend more time learning pottery and create a really technically good fucked up little adhd teapot. But that’s a long way off since i currently live in the outback and the nearest pottery workshop is some 400km away. But I figure that for now, it might be a useful or interesting metaphor to somebody even in its rough draft form.

This post is the cup I filled instead of cleaning my house btw.

You won't reach a point where you don't need references anymore 😭

Even artists who freedraw regularly still do studies, refer to their past work, keep character sheets at hand, etc

Please don't impose that expectation on yourself just because of a live demo, tiktok, or timelapses especially

Are You Out of Your Mind?

And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad. (KJV)Acts 26:24 Here’s my latest idea for a voicemail announcement: “Sorry I missed you. I am temporarily out of my mind. I’ll get back to you when I return.” Or how about this, for an auto email reply: “I am currently beside myself. One or both of us will reply…

Gotta love how Mappa always makes Gojo's lips slightly pink and shiny like he got lip gloss on

Wait, a character can become canonically queer and not immediately be sent to super mega turbo hell by the writers???
