Archive for February 6th, 2005A while ago, I asked y’all to name the painting, and I liked The 13th Squirrel’s sugestion best - Acheron @ Sunrise - but wasn’t comfortable with the fact that there can be no sunrise over Acheron. The river is identified with the Epirus river in Greece that flows underground in several places, and because of that I propose the title Epirus Sunrise. Not quite the same ring. Eh, I’ll think on it some more. Meanwhile, I wish I had a digital camera, as the newest painting will not fit on the scanner. So here is a detail of it. The original is 12″ x 16″ and features an earlier painting bolted to the canvas, nails, rope (which I may burn off), and acrylics. It’s called “Building Something Up”, from a John Dendy song title with the same name. The lyric is “Building something up is better than/tearing something down/I do believe in love/and that’s why I don’t need you around.” Meanwhile, I have bolted supports into the top of my desk so that the laptop lid does not fall. The hinges go for around $95 on eBay, and I don’t have a stray $95 right now. So I paid $5 at Ace Hardware for the parts I needed and have a stationary laptop now. Which is why I did not upload a Radio Dystopia setlist, because I won’t be able to do my usual downloads show. Çest lá vie. But, if you plan on listenig, you can email your requests. Remember, the show’s on tonight at 10 PM MST ![]() |
