There may be too many animated Gifs on my website.
This post will bump the largest one off the front page. My site was getting a bit bloated.
Simpsons table read inside!
Inside this building or nearby the voice talent behind The Simpsons are gathering with the writers and producer for a table read. I may not be present for the read, but I will certainly enjoy the episode.
Wondercon 2015 Photos!
First time at Wondercon, I had a great time. Hilariously interesting panels, friendly people and amazing costumes. Food trucks for miles supplemented the usual con food. Similar to Comic Con in spirit, but not in scope. Wondercon lacked the sweltering crowds and with them, much of the lines. This more intimate setting afforded more direct fan interaction. I saw creators hugging fans and levels of joy and enthusiasm that could almost approximate wonder.
…And there were robots.
Throwback Thursday – be3n’s boyhood home!
I found more pictures of my old bedroom recently. Below, I cleared out my bed to install a pull out sofa (seen in next frame). It turned my high school room into quite the hangout. Also on display were some art and other decorations from that era. If you look closely, you can find Pez, impressionists paintings, comics, Magic packs, and a Sun optical mouse/mousepad. I wonder what others will find. My room’s walls were quite the collage. I’ve added more pictures including this 4up from my Nickelodeon Photo Blaster. Can you find Audio/Video tapes next to the original Nintendo? enjoy.
ComicCon 2014 is done and we had a blast!
Our visit to San Diego is over, but the memories live on. I usually post as I go, but the cell service was so atrocious at the convention center, I couldn’t do any more then text from the convention floor. Here are some of my pics. I think i’ll start with the bath robe I almost bought. It was luxuriously soft and made me look like my favorite Wookie.
This year I explored the free open to all NerdHQ that was set up at Petco Park. it was pretty cool with lots of video game demos, panels, and other neat stuff. Some of the neatest was a display from Stupid Buddy Studios the stop motion guys who bring us Robot Chicken, among many other fun projects.
This guy actually controls the camera setup during the shoots with this modified Nintendo Power Glove. Love the retooled retro cool. I also learned about the culture of their office. It is themed like a scout troupe complete with patches awarded for projects completed and woodland wall paper in their LA offices. See some of the patches sewn into uniform shirts reminiscent of brownie uniforms of the 80s.
Even Samsung had an amazing superhero inspired display made of their amazing devices. Last, but certainly not least. . . Huge Thanks to Jenn!

My most obscure Halloween costume yet! I love Forest for playing along and even encouraging me.
Art Show 2011 presented by Mr Brainwash in LA!
I visited the show just before closing yesterday. It was overflowing with street art. Literally. it seemed as though paint and scrawled graffiti radiated from the warehouse. The installation itself was huge. More then four floors of the warehouse were open to the public. Full of sculptures, automobiles, and appliances made art. This was a concentrated example of the phenomena that is street art. At times the senses are overwhelmed by the sheer quantity of detail. Admission was free, as were the posters. Mr brainwash and many of the featured artists were there signing posters. here are a few of my favorites from the show. . .
