Current Projects
- For my School for Poetic Computation class, “Let’s Play: Wayward Sentences”, I’m working on my final project where I’ll make an edition of 75—a list of 75 constraints, printed photos, unique messages, and maybe more lol, encased in thrifted envelopes. It’s ambitious like everything else I create but I’m excited.
- Skyview Rolodex - a fictional narrative about a depressed, lonely Filipina American woman who connects to others through her guerrilla art, centered around a thrifted rolodex she inserts her dreams, documentation, pain, and more. The Instagram needs to be updated but I upload any guerrilla art she’s done, art shows, and completed works. The goal is to apply and submit to any applicable open call I can create/write as her. I think it’ll help me grow in a multitude of ways and just a fun experiment.
- This website lol. I’m starting from scratch because I could no longer deal with the spam, annoying ads, plugins, and such from WordPress. Bearblog is a breath of fresh air and I can build it how I want. I wanna try to blog at least nearly daily, add some pages, and eventually a directory once I have ample tags.
Reading
The Kingdom of Surfaces by Sally Wen Mao - A fantastic poet “examines art and history—especially the provenance of objects such as porcelain, silk and pearls—to frame an important conversation on beauty, empire, commodification, and violence.” Read “On Silk” on Granta
Listening
“Never Tell” by Luke Chiang - He had stopped recording music due to health concerns so I was thrilled when he recently released this amazing song years later. Knowing somewhat of what he’s been through, the lyrics have so much depth. He has such a rich voice and I hope he’ll continue to create music for many years to come.
Watching
Fantasmas by Julio Torres on Max. Just saw the first episode of this surreal, poignant, hilarious vision of NYC and it’s an incredible delight! It’s a mini series of six episodes so I’m gonna stretch it out and not binge it. Watch the trailer here. Definitely gonna watch everything else he’s made.
