The last couple days my allergies have been so outrageous even on claritin that I turned to benedryl. It make me insane pretty much. I have these really intense dreams most of which are not publically sharable.

I told some of you about the one where orprah got exposed for having slaves so as repayment a judge sentenced bunch of hippies to decend on her ranch ( I think this was inspired by the woodstock movie commercial). Turned out it was the one where she kept the treasured set of star gate ( a show I never watched) and for some reason I was the computer tech coordinating it all.

I overhead the hippy oganizerss saying they were going to bleach the costumes - needless to say oprah went totally mad and they had to tie her down.

Last nights dream was even crazier and I ended up trying crack that (e:jason) brought to some part in my dreams. Sorry (e:jason) I have no idea what in my subconscious associated you and crack but damn it was some powerful stuff. Everytime you smoked it, it made sparked and smoked and mini nuclear fallout clouds over the pipe.

I so excited to go dancing tomorrow during the day. Should be pretty fun, even if it rains. Does anyone remember dancing in the rain at the art gallery last year? I really like Mike Parker and he is playing. One of my favorite times seeing him was at the metal pit over near the ford plant in south buffalo/lakawanna.



Rain or Shine, this will be unforgettable!

Electronic Music + Art Day Festival August 29th Buffalo, NY
    
What is Silent Exchange?

Silent Exchange will be an all day open air electronic music + art event taking place on August 29, 2009 from noon-10pm with five DJ's that have tickled dance floors all over the world, with local performance artist and other artist work up and around in a one day installation. You will not be disappointed!.

Why Silent Exchange?

After living in NYC and Berlin for the past four and a half years, I returned to Buffalo, NY, only to find a commercial side of the electronic music scene. Not that there's anything wrong with that!

My plan - the Silent Exchange concept - is meant to focus on what is missing: the simplistic, low key, underground, and more accessible side of the music and art scene. Buffalo does do a great job in introducing people to the mainstream sound but Silent Exchange will open the door to a new experience - to an encounter with unconventional and unexplored surroundings where people can have direct access, and a unique connection with the music and art around them.

What Silent Exchange wants is for art to show its true face - inspiring, dirty, raw all simultaneously. Artists can freely manifest their sound in an artistic and unpretentious environment, where their techniques and interpretation aren't bound to any commerical expectations. International, as well as up and coming talents, will bring their edge and unfiltered sound to Silent Exchange, and artists will have the opportunity to display their work in one day exhibitions - with the perpetual message in mind: "actions speak louder than words."

It doesn't matter where we are all from, which backgrounds, interests, worlds we belong to - this is a connection between the people and music + art. Words are not needed for the exchange that takes place on a dancefloor. The smiles, the winks, the hugs, the kisses between strangers - all these create the vibe.

Where is Silent Exchange?

Silent Exchange Electronic Music + Art event will team up with Rock Harbor Commons Village "The Yard" for the debut. his space is in the backyard of the warehouse buildings. What they are beginning to build atRock Harbor is a new ecologically friendly and safe student environment that will incorporate a blending of art, history, nature, and social activies. The village will soon house 300 students in the first phase along with plans for a caf� , student entrepreneurial offices, food court, fitness center, game/recreational room, big screen TVs, 24-hour security, Wi-Fi, monitored private parking, and eco-friendly shuttle buses. August 2010 marks the beginning of a remarkable future for Rock Harbor and the Black Rock community.

If so it's scary as hell.

We were at the mall shopping for (e:Terry)'s birthday shoes when I
remembered it was snow leopard day. I checked my amazon account and
saw it was not shipping for another week so I canceled the order on my
phone and checked out at the apple store. Thanks amazon for making
that so convenient! The nice part about the apple store is that they
email you receipt and you don't even need a bag. That's pretty
green. Even better would be if you could just install online.

The totally got rid of everything but hardware at the apple store.
Not sure if it's for snow leopard or back to school sales.

I hope 30 is as fun for you as it was for me.

I can't believe how those guys just run around up there unharnassed
and with nothing to catch them. They obviously do this all the time
or they would be terrified.

The only thing I regret is getting new gutters last year. It seems
like they will get destroyed by all that weight pressing on them.

My cube got extended a bit so I can meet with people but we didn't
have the right wall peices so it now is pretty much only three sided
which is kind of ridiculous. In the mean time I added a bookshelf to
block part of it. I hope they can get me a piece of wall.

Not like I should be able to say anything about fahion considering how
I dress, but what is with this ugly dress. It just makes the woman
look wider than she is.

I went to the beach yesterday with (e:Terry), (e:mike) and (e:libertad).
The beach was closed but I swam anyways. Then a lifeguard told me to
get out because the bacteria levels were high. So far I didn't get
sick.
