many things are coming together.
the images i'm currently posting are actually pics that compose a series of short pseudo stop-motion slide/show films i'm cooking up.
set to mainly feature ball jointed dolls, "the shadow theater" will eventually launch itself from from my blog at the dollhouse [link]
i'm polishing off the text that accompanies the latest uploads too. and seems i've still got some things to learn...that being just a little bit of flash since the free slide show functionality i get with photobucket is pretty damn basic...
so yeah....much springing up in my strange little garden. many things under construction...just when i thought my imagination might have fallen asleep.

so yeah...i only check this site once in a blue moon lately...but that soon will change. many things are changing.

it was only a matter of time....

public serviCe announcement 008
i have a crafty-obsession-laiden-knitting-sewing-dollgeek-ocd peppered-cthulloid-octopus-blog/website thing that i attend to periodically. its my odd little garden...always under construction...always morphing...
viollet's web can be found through the following wormhole:[link]

my little menagerie of dreamlette creatures grows and so i have a wealth of pics to upload. stories are brewing and much of it can be gleaned by going to my blog. within viollet's web you'll find a room called "the dollhouse" and detailed profiles and back stories for the dollies can be seen there. there's even a little slide show theater called "the shadow theater" and episode one is already uploaded. the text that accompanies the pictures is yet to be added. for now, it is simply a silent movie of sorts....a simple toe touching the waters edge of stop-motion lake of fire.

much is going on inside my head lately...
way too much....
but its nice. for a while there, my mind seemed to go creatively silent...
but that never lasts forever.




public service announcement 009

oh...and its a beautiful bizarre world out there: enjoy the hell out of it. sip tea with a close friend and enjoy the silence. given into temptation every now and then. do a headstand. bang your head like its 1985. may the fire always walk with you. always try to keep your promises and if keeping promises is a problem maybe you should consider making fewer promises. tell the person you have a crush on that you have a crush on them. life is short at certain intervals and long at others. daydream more. give more hugs and kisses. spin around in a circle like when you were five and nothing mattered. forgive someone you held a grudge against. try your best not to be mean to anyone. dance around your bedroom in your undies while listening to a song that was your favorite when you were a teenager. eat some fruit, submit to being tickled...its fun..... lather. rinse. repeat.

public servie announcement 006
morpheen & velveteen ...and two more songs

more songs have been uploaded to my 'myspacemusic' page.
two newbies: 'the waking life' and 'wrapped in plastic'. since i consider this a testing phase for the site, let me know if there are any gliches or if the songs don't play as they should. you'll find a link below...
[link]

myspace can't weave the ampersand symbol into my url (or other places where it makes sense..like song titles)...so hence my url looks a bit odd with the 'amp' between the words morpheen and velveteen...stupid myspace.

public service announcement 007

oh...and its a beautiful bizarre world out there: enjoy the hell out of it. Pass the dutchie to the left hand side. giggle till your face hurts. jump on the bed at least once a week. Try skipping instead of walking. Allow yourself to get a little tipsy. spank your inner moppet…again. have fun storming the castle. vanquish your foes. take no prisoners. take a really deep breath. may the fire always walk with you. Just do it, god damn it. Develop a crush and fantasize about them over voodoo rituals and coffee. dream big. Grab someone you’ve always wanted to kiss & kiss them with every ounce of passion that’s in you. kiss them like you fucking mean it. Take more time for meaningful conversation w/ people you actually give a damn about it. head bang till you get whip lash. Climb to the top of a little mountain and scream. Do something really meaningful. Send a post card to a friend you’ve not seen in years. Do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight. lather. rinse. repeat.


precious moments in motion pictures/ public service announcement number 004:

From the film: Wild At Heart

Lula: This whole world's wild at heart and weird on top.

Lula: One of these days the sun's gonna come up and burn a hole clean through the planet like a giant electrical x-ray.
Sailor: I wouldn't worry about that, Peanut. By then people'll prob'ly be drivin Buicks to the moon.

Episode from series: Twin Peaks

Cooper: Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret: every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it; don't wait for it; just let it happen. It could be a new shirt in a men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black, coffee.

february. just another month to some, usually marked only by a pagan pixie fairy boy called cupid and the need to buy stuff made of chocolate....but for fans of the show "twin peaks" february has special conotations..mainly marked by the coming anniversary of the death of Laura Palmer (feb23-24). so go buy some cherry pie & pay some repect! or just go rent or buy twin peaks. its like the best tv series ever allowed to air on regular network television. it rocks. here's one more snippet of wierdness (and those aren't typo's. the show is just off kilter in a great way). compiled by Edwin Nomura...one really patient twin peaks fan.

Little Man from Another Place: Llllet'srock!
[ringing sound, shadow moves across the curtains]
LMFAP: That gum you liike is goinng to kum bak in styyle.
[looks at Laura]
Shee's mi couzin. Butt doesn't she look--almostt exactly--like
Lowra Powlmer?
Cooper: But, it is Laura Palmer. [to Laura:] Are you Laura Palmer?
Laura: I feeel liike I knoww her, but sumtimes mi arrms bendback.
LMFAP: Shee's filled with segrets. Where we're from, the birds zing a
happy zong, and therre's always muzic intheair.
