hello
5 11 2009Today in my diva 300 class I presented a midterm report about my work thus far in the semester, a progress report of sort. One thing I did learn today is don’t start off with a joke, stand up comics do earn their money. My internship has given me the chance to work on some 3d images, the ones you need glasses for. So if your interested here is a report of what i’m doing.Step 1 we collect the und.doc

Fall 09 course
25 09 2009I’m taking a diva 300 course this semester at ECUAD and one of the requirements is to do participate in an internship. So I have arranged one with the IDS studio at ECUAD. My goal is to become familiar with the equipment there so as to be able to apply it to my artistic work .So far I have met with Maria Lanten the director and she has given me some reading material. The first piece of equipment I have been introduced to is the stereoscope projector. My first impression is what a learning curve I ‘m going to have. So what I have decided to do is tackle one thing at a time , the first is the equipment then the software after that confusion. Any ways I am uploading 2 pdfs as part of my requirements for the course . One is a bit of info about me, the other is a scope of work proposal for the semester. sowr diva300pres_1

The Art of Food
26 12 2007This a photo of an installation of found objects and spices that are used for a salmon cure recipe.
When ever I prepared this mix I was always amazed by the colors and then next started to wonder how I could show them in terms of art. Hence I came up with this set of objects that reflect the community that I cook for and and the type of food I like. The salmon is a troubled fish, like the community I cook for, and so it started ………The salt and sugar are in a yogurt container. The container represents the good bacteria that has be replenished in the aids patients that I cook for. The pepper corns are in a coffee cup, coffee brings the people together at the center. The mustard seeds are in a film container which represents the media. The media always film the corner for any story involving the east side, even the positive ones, hence reinforcing stereotypes. The paprika and coriander seeds are in pill containers which I relate to the mental heath issues in the neighbourhood (mine also). The liquid smoke is in a rig which the artificial flavour in the recipe and hence the forced high. The spoon has cinnamon which is for the comfort we try to provide, while struggling with the junkies who keep stealing the spoons. The bay leaves are in a condom wrapper and the chili flakes are in makeup container, which I relate to the health ministry, the johns and the sex trade workers. The spices are all mixed together to make a salmon cure. The suitcase is old and torn, which is like a lot of people see in the east side, but I see more hence the Polaroid of the queens jewels on it.
