More Obama art weirdness-- buttons!
There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. We can roll the image, make it flutter. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. We repeat, there is nothing wrong with your television set. You are about to participate in a great adventure. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... The Outer Limits.
OBEY!*
Oy gevalt.
* (Yes, Iknow that Obey Giant is Obama poster artist Sheperd Fairey's company, but if you ask me, these buttons are creepy as hell. They are not created by Fairey, by the way, which makes them even creepier!)

Rick, thanks for the Outer Limits reference. One of the coolest shows ever...
I started this blog in 2007 to put some of my art on the internet. Here you will also find a lot of posts about other art that I like (or don't like), and other art-related topics. To see all of my art in one place, please visit my regular website (see link above).
I'm also a guitar player. I have a SoundCloud website where you can hear my original electric guitar instrumentals, ambient electronic music, and some other odds & ends (see link below).
I hope you find something of interest here on my blog. Comments are encouraged! Thanks for stopping by.
