AUGUST 9TH, 1996.In the month of september, I will be working mostly on graphics and such involved. Will be setting up a couple web pages that have been planned, gallery, t-shirt expose, occupied mind page. I believe Tiac will be provider, but not decided on that. A catalog for the t-shirt connect will hopefully be printed up in september at the print shop. A magazine is also being planned, but I am going to push that further away as more possibilities have popped up. (cd-rom, web page zine?, that would be surprisingly easy, as far as graphics go)I am working full time doing graphics manipulation for a cd-rom right now, and will tentaively be done by september. I will then resume part time (full time?) work in Quincy at a graphics design firm. By this time, I will be out of Somerville and in Hingham or Quincy. Possibly in september I will be too busy to really get much accomplished, but there will always be the next month. I think TT could get included in any stuff I do in sept. Maybe when Kevin hooks up, we can start compiling an album to press ourselves, have to do alot of imagining for something like that.Within the next near while, I hope to connect my idea for a t-shirt company to the art crimes page and help out alot. This would create a nice link between all the pages I am in connects with and all the links on art crimes. If mag goes online, that would be nice too. Also during sept I will be advertising web design work with affiliation avec rp design, ( make sure to figure all that out before sept. ) Taking the challange of a good web page is a real good idea. Maybe around beginning of sept, it would be a good idea to do a dozen speek kills slow down and live shirts. baby blue with drk blue and white. BASIC IDEAS: shirt design, catalog template, magazine postcard, figure or think about involvement with art crimes and rp design. ****September 27, 1996September went fine, worked with Al at barrett, finished HGWH project slightly late, did work for Dan Dow, Aloysius, Tekknow Town, Barbara Swanson, myself. purchased a 28,800 modem in hopes of getting online connection, need to get more graphics and concepts done first. Graphics for The Ferncroft Gallery are looking good, have 3 paintings by Barbara Swanson on file at this point, would like to make custom postcards orstationary maybe. Prints? Have saved up some good cash, will hold on to it for awhile, see what might be a good thing to spend it on....Am looking for place to rent, not necessarily to live, but more to work and chill. I think if I set up a place to work, I will have a good place to create and produce with friends. If a place like this is set up, it could act as an inspiration to all who involve which may double back on myself. This is probably the best idea so far. What to look for: place with office, can make noise, garage door, distant from others, but close by alot of people. Needs good security as well. Plan on staying with mother for ahile, dont need to be there, but it is probably a good idea to stay involved with family for support (moral and otherwise).Once a workplace is set up, could go to school and work freelance. Jam space, work space, phone lines, heat, lighting, photographs, props, storage space....Steps:get place, work, school maybefinish carpurchase more computer stuff....be patient...If large enough, could rent out space to others to paint cars, work on them, etc. etc. Very good idea. Things to think about: money (as usual), creating time, {side note - around this time came process for imaginary object oriented characters!}, assisting others. They will help out? Finding concrete aspirations and solving them, keep the positive vibe. Putting things into effect.
