Ok, so I finally sat down and made some arrangements of the random stuff I've taken apart and made some nice little dioramas that I think are neat. They are a few scenes that mimic some everyday human events from eating to sleeping to watching t.v. They should be easy to recognize though I do hope there is some figuring out involved as to what is going on. I like the look of the vacuum tubes and I hope to find more so that I might make some more permanent dioramas/scenes. With out further exultation here they are:

Breakthrough?
Okay after some intense brainstorming I believe I've hit the nail on the head as far where this project is going. This is mainly due to two things.
1. After searching for techno-junk and looking through items I have collected found that I have less of a few key items then I originally thought.
2. Creating a lot of different sculptures and taking pictures of them would enable me to re-use lot of items and create a wider variety of scenes.
So there you have it, the reasons and the direction this project is going to be going in from here on out. A little late in the game in my opinion though I think it will allow me to create more scenes rapidly. I am also thinking of taking pictures of these scenes in similar environments where they would be found in human society or at least just not with a plain color background. I want them to have an outside-in-the-world feel. Now its going to come down to cost of making posters of of these pictures or at least something a couple feet by a couple feet.

Where did the time go?
The last time I posted was July 7th?! Yikes, well, true to procrastination it's come down to the end of summer for me to get around to actually doing stuff besides drawing my ideas in the most basic of fashions. This week I will definitely post up some sketches and the some pics of concepts I sketched out. I plan on using vacuum tubes mainly since those come across well in the scenes I've been tinkering with. All I need to do is slap a few of them together and hope they actually look how I imagine they will look and that people will be able to recognize them as those scenes/actions. Onwards!
