Fun with Beads and Paper


So, here's the thing. The system of the beads themselves takes on a form which allows for more continuous formations and systems of shape and function. Unconscious...no, but unintentional is more likely. If you look at the beads as a metaphor, or as a means to something else, they work as a system we create for yourselves and our intellectual intentions. Whether the beads (or paper) serve another purpose or form is what can be interpreted with intent.


This is why people may create something with a specific intent for its use, yet someone may use the object in a totally unintended manner according to its creator. This is where the methphor comes into play. The beads represent an infinite amount of possibility, yet perception may be limited when it comes to the user. I may have a completely different experience than someone else with the same beads, because the possibilities are numerous and sometimes even effortless.

The Flux of Framing


So I've been really trying to grasp the concept of Flux in a way that I can competantly convey it in a cohesive presentation. Flux as I understand it is somewhat of an organized chaos and that exactly how it works for me. In thinking about all the different ways frames are used in the world I began to wonder about everything framed. Every single thing has a frame. Thus, flux takes on the task of organizing what seems to be complete chaos.


my skin is the frame for my body
my bones are the foundation of this frame


flux is the miraculous way everything sticks together


Everything works in this way. What is organized really isn't organized at all. It all just seemlessly comes together with what we see as very little effort at all. How amazingly chaotic! My project is coming into existence in quite the same manner. After all the rationalization, everything makes sense and the grass grows, the birds chirp, and we go on living in organized chaos.

Framing the Question

Do you ever find perfect or imperfect squares or rectangles in nature?  Framing usually follows a default format of a square or rectangle, then out of this frame other frames are formed.  Is it then possible to follow the lines of nature, which are always in constant movement, and begin with a circular frame that never ends?  

Consider the chair you are sitting in or the ground you are standing on.  Motion occurs in objects and things both moving and stationary. Yet, the constraints of width and height of the frame confines us.

Technology and the necessity for Multimedia

Technology is (as I see it) the innovation of science and art in development and design to make life easier or more convenient for people and things to include the tangible and intangible .

In saying that, there is a necessity for multimedia and multimedia outlets to serve the ever changing needs of technology.  The use of multimedia helps to include ALL as to not exclude the humanities.

Just Post!

so I figured I ought to post something to test out this new realm of creativity. limited Fork is unlike anything I've ever read or even heard of, yet everything I could imagine. in some strange way it makes me feel comfortable that there is someone out there with similar or somewhat the same crazy ideas as myself. well, please be warned. who knows what will come out next!
