Mice Talkin’ To Ya! (Pencils)

(from Wikipaedia: ”In the American comic book industry, the penciller is the first step in rendering a story in visual form”, followed by inker, colorist, & letterer, mostly self-explanatory job titles.)

Click to view pencils from part 1 of Mice Talkin’ To Ya! a humorous comic I wrote for no reason. Its about a guy asking the internet for advice concerning his pet mouse. I had fun making up screen names & typos on this one.

UC BERKELEY PICXZ

click here to view “UC Berkeley Picxz”, some Pixcz I took at UC Berkeley of buildings on campus.

edit 2020: I think these pictures are cool, even though they are messy or something. They are a pre-quarantine image of quarantine. I think I was just trying to protect the public’s privacy by mostly excluding people.

I staged all the shots with a digital camera first, & I ended up with sort of a creepy, zombie or espionage -type vibe. Tried to focus on the “utility” of the campus - barbed wire, rooftop dishes & antennae, municipal pipes, the sheer monolith of some of the buildings. Kinda how it feels walking campus in the wee hours.

Also, I developed these at the Berkeley art studio while I was doing photography class there - its open to the public, enroll when campus opens.

A totally rondom poem

Title Unknown, 2016

all my hopes and dreams like the piecemeal wandering psalms of an ancient unknown homer shrouded in the cryptography of antiquity rambling speech like the prayers and anniversaries of our forebears whispered like secrets into the ether the visions of a fever dream visitations from immaterial beings and in the barrier of air between you and me all these things urban greenery my hopes and dreams a poem untold hidden beneath the weight of a home the whispers of our forebears frozen in the petrified air shrouded in the cryptography of antiquity the broken prose of ancient tomes Burning Alexandrian greenery the undisclosed annals of minor domestic Armageddons shrouded in the cryptography of antiquity The broken prose of ancient faded tomes An empty room and the piecemeal pieces of me Unchronicled stories and emotions floating on air A nameless Smithsonian undetected by the instruments of science The secreted torments of our forbears Populating the empty air The subtleties of uncharted Armageddons

just realized i’m like really swaggy, and need to pimp myself more profitably - so i’m password-protecting some of my super blogz (in like a day or 2)

thanks people! 2017 and beyond!

This song was composed by me (the9file.com) and Matt (http://bit.ly/1pudtkz) with vocal contributions by Catherine Crown (http://bit.ly/1WBBrsA). It was some genius stuff when Matthew laid the foundations of this recording, taping drum tracks, guitar parts, and the hook singlehandedly. I then swagged it by adding vox, Kaossilator sounds, and MIDI programming. I legit think my performance here is the best vocal of 2010.

Oh and the Silvs laid down a butta bass part.

“BackIIThaPast”, by me, Lance (http://bit.ly/1UbFevB), and Matt (http://bit.ly/1pudtkz). If this is released on an album, it will probably have a rap verse.

These guys are wizards, they GET DOWNE.

Here they created what to me are some pretty strange and amazing sounds , and in record time (no pun).

Jooseman and the Silvs laid the foundations of this track, mashing MIDI keys and shredding on vocals and bass in a flurry of activity… Very punk rock.

Their process is still very mysterious to me even after writing music and recording with them.

I contributed some crucial parts, including drum sounds, and the breakdown (with the underwater bass).

... mashing on MIDI keys SIMULTANEOUSLY and layering sound in suprisingly few takes - it was magic and effing amazing. I was like “WUT...?? RU SERIOUS...??” just totally amazed as usual

Deotis used a LABELMAKER beat for this early mixtape… placing my instrumental among compositions by a handful of world-class producers including Chuck Inglish… a position its well-suited for.

5 track album

LABELMAKER, my longtime band/music project, is a fusion of indie and experimental hip-hop. This CD showcases a handful of favorite tracks with more “conventional”, sung song forms, as opposed to LABELMAKER’s more rap-oriented compositions.

this CD is FIVE DOLLARS but i am offering it for free. PAY ME (via bandcamp or the following link: http://bit.ly/1TgI1RK) so i can make more great art.
