Random things I collect: Korg keyboard, Bjork candle, thumb piano, quartz crystal, elf costume, charms, and dinosaur fossil
I have always loved the feeling of making art and music alone in my room. Late nights figuring out where exactly on my 4-Track to plug my guitar cable in, and feeling completely free, because I could do everything by myself. As technology has changed, making art or music that requires some technological things has been made easier, although it is hard to say goodbye to technologies you once embraced (ie. print photography, and sound recording becoming digital) One thing I have learned though over time via those late night inspirations, is that it is really easy and fun to make DIY music videos for yourself, your band, or your favorite band. Use your surroundings! I myself collect some random things, and it is fun to use them when making a DIY music video!
Accessories are key! (puff tie, hippo necklace, Disney Haunted Mansion ring from the 70's, charm necklace)
Authentic Triceratops fossil, little dragon dude
Here was my end result. Now start getting crafty and have some DIY fun!
