Hey kid, I'm a computer
Just a meme
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And thus the endless cycle of the meme goes on and on and on and on...
Interviewed by gogoicarus
-what is the most fun medium to work in, artwise?
Oh god these kinds of questions are hard. I'd say I have the most fun doing something that really gets my body moving and doing things. I guess it'd have to be painting or charcoal drawing on a biiiiiig canvas/piece of paper. Sculpture, especially metal sculpture, requires a lot of physical effort but the act of creating, especially in the early stages, can feel more like a chore than a form of expression. I generally wind up enjoying the finished product most but I don't if I'd call the experience on the whole "fun". Digital drawing/painting is great too but your movements are more controlled than if you were to work REALLY BIG in real media. Ceramics is soothing but not really "fun," and if you consider dance an art medium I would say probably that except I can't say I dance that often.
tl;dr: painting/charcoal
-if you could travel anywhere in the world without having to worry about money for food or a hotel or wherever where would you go?
Is time travel involved? If not I'd say Antarctica, since it's the last place that hasn't been fully explored/documented/raped yet. Or a jungle. In Africa. An African jungle. Or maybe somewhere in South America. or mayb- you know what can I just say everywhere?
-if you were starving to death which would you eat first: a dog or a dolphin?
Eat the dog and ride the dolphin to safety. Or if I'm on land, eat the dog, attach treads to the dolphin, and ride it to safety.
-what kind of hat is the fanciest hat
Light-refracting Abraham Lincoln tophat lined with crow feathers
-why did you decide to give vivv tattoos?
Iiiii don't know. Something felt like it was missing, and I've always liked (well done) tattoos/facepaint. I'll probably never get any myself but I think they're awesome. Anyway I didn't want it to just be one symbol or something "meaningful", but I didn't want it to be one of those ridiculous full-body tattoos with jesus on a cross melting into a gryphon that's fighting a dragon whose eye is a nipple etc etc etc. I just put them where it made sense.
Although I might have ganked part of the design from Chakotay of Star Trek Voyager fame. Just a little. But you didn't hear it from me.
Also fun fact: the design on his armor is meant to be an extension of his tattoos. Why red and blue? Because they make purple. And purple is excellent.
EDIT: More from maniac_online and cm1greenbear :B
1. What would you do to get real Halo Spartan Armor? What would it's color be, and would you totally hunt aliens in that thing?
I would join the army and win battles by running around punching people in the face. Humane AND cost effective. It would be dark purple with "maroon" secondary just like my dude in the game aaaand yes I would hunt them down and give them baked goods.
2. What is YOUR favorite SciFi original movie? (Or a movie that never stops playing on there, like The Odessy or Tremors)
ffffffffffffffff I hate Scifi Originals. So I'm going to say Tremors. Because Tremors is awesome and has sandworms.
3. What Pagan god would you follow if they were real? (Vikings, greeks, ect ect)
Norse gods because they're incestuous warmongering dicks. And I respect that.
4. If you could use your metal working skills to build a robot, would it be for good or for evil?
Good. Definitely good. But I'd still give it homing missiles and eye lasers.
5. WOULD YOU RIDE ON A DONGCOPTOR IF IT COULD SHOOT LASERS OUT OF THE TIP?
I WOULD RIDE A DONGCOPTOR REGARDLESS
- have you used that pigeon torch yet? DO IT
NOT WITH AN ACTUAL PIDGEON but yeah some straw and lighterfluid works just as well. It's awesome.
-eat a squirrel or a opossom? can cook it any way you like and wear the skin too if you want but you gotta eat one.
Both, a la turducken style.
-paint your parents up as bogsherries in bodysuits and plushy tails etc, would you do it? hooooow about then put it up on the internets?
I would totally do this if 1)they wouldn't kill me and 2)it didn't make me look like a raging furry. And yes I would totally post it on the internet and email it to their respective bosses which leads us back to problem number one.
-you are given custody of six toddlers and told they're yours now. WHAT DO YOU DOOOO
Hide.
if you really were the fucking moon mother fucker what would you do with your awesome powers of ...moon? mooning? mooningingal? mooninites
Be a dick and crash into the Earth, sending it out of orbit and slowly careening towards the sun. For shits and giggles.
