What’s Cookin’

Well I had been planning this project for the Seattle Erotic Art Festival this year but due to issues at home I missed the deadline for submitting art applications. I plan on going to the festival this year as a vacation away from home but the actual art submission will just have to wait for next year.

What a damn shame I tell you, but TFB 09 is almost here and I just got my main component in the mail earlier this week – so I’m all ecstatic again :) My mother took me shopping for some extra pieces to start working on the project. It felt very refreshing….

Texas Fetish Ball ’09 Flier

Well it’s time again for Texas Fetish Ball, (formerly known as the Dare Ware Fetish ball) and I am pumped. I think it’s high time I got involved in the scene again and stopped living my life like a mindless drone. Fucking corporate America. That’s what’s wrong with this country I tell you. Let’s hear it for the everyday local people like you and me!

I went ahead and made a quick flier in the hopes that I can go somewhere with it. Be a productive part in society.

EDIT: The results of this project can be viewed at my Behance Network profile.

To view their old flyer, see my previous post.

On Charlie Laine

Before you continue reading, if you are under 18 years old or legal age in your area of the world, do yourself a favor and stop reading this post and direct your browsers here.

Now that we’re past that, you understand further reading includes my interests in porn. Oh, and I also hope you’re browsing happy.

So.

When I’m frustrated, or bored, or just alone for too long I usually enjoy a good self pleasuring session <3. Among my interests you will find Andrew Blake to Ninn. I am usually more into artistic than sloppy. I don’t actively dig through online pornographic repositories to get my kicks because eventually I will lose interest and find myself something else to do besides touch myself :/

Last week though I had stumbled upon a very awesome porn which I thought was delicate and very detailed. The close-ups and angles were very intuitive. There was no rushing or anything, no over exaggerated gunky mess to distract me of the actual performance going on. Except maybe the fucking old hag storytelling in the background. The music wasn’t that aggravating as others I’ve experienced.

In the heat of the moment I totally x-ed out and forgot to download/bookmark the damn thing. Later on I spent a couple of hours obsessed with trying to find and show it to my husband – you cannot believe my frustration. I even skimped out on a good opportunity to fuck during the workday with my poor hubby who was just anxious with all the images I clicked away at mindlessly. :/

Bitch. I know.

Anyway, I found it today and was like yes! Hot steaming sex did not ensue. But I made sure I saved the little fucker, and posted it here to share :)

First time I saw this bit I thought to myself that the lead girl, Charlie Laine, was kind of irksome in a way. Perhaps her tiny mouth, and the fact that she looked a bit experienced for her age (?). The other taller girl (Sarah Blake) was much hotter despite her overly plasticized nails. After doing some research though I discovered how beautiful Charlie has grown up(?) to be. I am assuming this is one of her earliest works anyway. She’s about my age actually, which I consider kinda old, and probably the porn industry sooner or later. Her body seems much more developed as I began to research her more but she can sometimes definitely be mistaken to be much younger. Especially in aforementioned video.

Her mouth still irks me every so often but she is one kinky young lady. Kudos. I know I will definitely be seeing more of her. Especially now that I’ve discovered from IMDb that she has done some s&m flicks.

iGeneration

Well I’ve been itching to jot down this small experience during work this past week. First off you have to understand that I work at a technology dependent production and retail copy center.

Many of our customers seem to be so impartial from the technology that has woven itself into the very fabric of our lives. Surprisingly most are either in college or have higher education slapped across their foreheads and don’t even know what a memory stick or USB/Thumb/Jump drive can do (as opposed to CDs especially). They refuse to use the “help” menu when trying to figure out how to do something in a widley used program such as MS Word – such as making something bold. They cling and demand for others to solve their problems for them. As if any slight mental challenge or thoughtful effort will ruin their life. To the point that they’ve called managers on us!

I even designed a minimal verbage/highly illustrated diagram (with a good amount of arrows and bright colors) on an 11 x 17 sheet of paper and placed it next to each of our computers in our “self-service computer area” to explain in a very basic way how to scan, burn CDs, etc. A young, well dressed man carrying books (college level), approaches one of the computers, takes a minute to look at the space, then comes straight to me and asks me how to burn a CD! I literally pointed to the diagrams and read what I wrote on there and he did what he needed to do and was done. I’ve seen Veterans and much older customers hop on a computer and manage just fine – scanning, and plugging in their memory sticks… I mean what a shame!

Getting even more technical – graphic designers who have “designed business cards all their lives” complain that flattening their graphics and saving them as .PDFs ruins their work and therefore they give me some huge 800 Mb file to print – with no bleed information. Now if you are not familiar with printing large documents from a network to a large digital machine – this means that you will sit for exactly half an hour not less waiting for the file to spool to the printer. Not very fun at all. Especially when it is a copy center and not a press we’re talking about here.

(I might actually go into more depth about making things print ready later on.)

Not this one kid though. Nope. The boy is barely in 8th grade and talking to me about HTML and his little chart in Excel. He didn’t ask for any help as he was looking up solutions to get his homework printed – and once he gave up on printing it on his own he dug through ink cartridges to match his printer at home. His favorite subject was history he had said – learning from the past to live the future.

I’ve never been too fond of kids but the genius in him glowed. It was quite refreshing from the usual. Why can’t everyone else do things for themselves? Seek knowledge and be above the slackers. If I have kids, I can only hope they have the same ambitions to exploit the world around them.

Texas Fetish Ball 08′

Well shelling out the few extra bucks for the vendor booth at the Texas Fetish Ball this year proved fruitful and worth the effort. Financially we broke a humble even but the feeling of satisfaction was quite invigorating. I believe we will definately do this again.

You can view my husband’s pieces up close and personal here.

We only had three, and yes I mean only three paintings but we sold all. All we have left is the stand that we constructed 4 hours before the show… see below :)
