why is nudity so misunterstood?

Saw this posted on You Tube by Blunty3000. It does so many things right, starting with acknowledging the other contributors, looks at the human form as beauty, uses the censored blackouts sensibly but most of all it demonstrates that nudity can be treated a perfectly normal form of artistic expression.

Nude
"Consider this video both a love letter to the Human form, and an open letter to any and all either interested in the nude in art, or are confused by it, or have trouble telling what is art and what is porn, or simply want to explore what goes on between model and artist in the creation of artistic studies of the naked human body.

Thank you to all who helped me make this video, It simply would not have been possible without you. Thank you to all the artists who either offered their work directly, or allowed it's use through the Creative Commons copyright license, Your generosity is greatly appreciated. :)" ...Blunty3000

something to watch

I started to prepare a post today but my scanner breathed its last breath half way trough and kind of spoilt the flow. So I though i;d give you something from youtube to look as as a reward for stopping by.

its not funny, its art

poor bianca, she doesn't get art ... or is it us ;)

talk about pork barreling

well this is about the most perfect justice for all the overhype of the USA pork barreling and such ...

the artist name is pricasso (if you look carefully on his site you will find his real name and if you ask nicely he may do a portait of you)

the haircut

OK I'm a bloke and an old one at that... but there are still a few things I don't get about girls ... the all taking at the same time things and the obsessions with haircuts (and/or new "colour") ... what I do know is often they are always at their most radiant just before and just after the "new haircut" ... & deep in my brain there is a entry that says this is the very best (actually no the only) time to sketch a female friend ... I think it is because it is a fleeting moment when they are at one with themselves and their self image ... well it is my experience that it is a fleeing moment ... before the tantrum and storming off to have a shower and mutter about never going back to that person again .... just glad I'm a bloke

I could not manage to find a video of the waif's performing their wonderfully insightful "the haircut" but this young lady gives her all for the sang ... ok she tries too ... but I guess you will get the picture

from little things...

It may not seem much ....but ... I was able to convert this photo of a crude sketch into the cartoon above, all on a cybercafe computer with a crap keyboard, just using a version of Paint.net downloaded onto my memory key ... it was like my climbing mount everest ... and with a decent cup of coffee as support. Better still I had it on twitter within ten minutes of the ink touching the paper ...from little things, big things grow

the naked vlog campaign

well I don't exactly understand the naked vlog campaign ... ok i have no idea how to even make a vlog ... but i can see that x gobo bean x has had a lot of fun making her youtube video and it is worth a look.

Dave I'm afraid I can't do that...

"Dave I'm afraid I can't do that..."

not sure why i doodled up this sketch... worrying about my dead mate, in the uncaring hands of a juvenile computer tech, with a personality bypass... the quote comes from HAL in the film 2001, A Space Odyssey

Now I'm here .... and you're here

Holly Throsby - Making A Fire

[via FoxyTunes / Holly Throsby]

I know its so bloody hot at the moment... well not exactly now... but over the past two weeks... it is high sumer here in Oz... so why the heck has this little tune got so much into my brain... its about being cold outside but holly doesn't mind she is making a fire... I think its the frail voice, the oboe and the reality about I'm here and your here ... or is it i am very disturbed that they are lighting a fire and they have left the dorr open!! ...anyway it is posted here for you to make up your own mind

the lifeclass

what is everyone doing...?
