You may have noticed that I have not been posting daily here at The OverDrone. I have been working on something else. I still try to post something each day, I just write them all in a batch every two or three days. If this bothers any one let me know. You may also have noticed that I am speaking in first person. That is explained here. Turns out I’m not a cybernetic organism with compound eyes after all.

The other thing that I have been working on is a batch of articles for the online how to resource eHow. What could I possibly know how to do? You would be surprised gentle reader. Below you will find my first instructional post, How to Make a Zine. You see before the digital desktop publishing revolution there was well, analog desktop publishing. Stay tuned for more links to my instructional articles from eHow.com (plug, plug). In fact go ahead and click now, I’ll still be here when you come back, I promise.

DUNGEON

Just got the book containing this beautiful panel by Trondheim. It reads and looks like a cross between Sergio Aragones and Advanced D&D. The characters have a surprising amount of depth for funny animal stuff and it looks like there will be at least five more books translated into English. Let’s hope this series does better than McConey.

VBS.TV OK

So, back in October The OverDrone watched some footage of Richard Prince on VBS.TV and declared it god. One month later and VBS is chock full of content. Above is the art of Laurel Nakadate. She reperverts the perverts she meets in a manner that is both uncomfortable and funny.
VBS does have some boring ass stuff. An eight part series on NASCAR? A nine part Ultimate Fighting series? Not for me. Luckily I don’t have to watch them but if you watch UFC and NASCAR and you like to see what those New York artists are up to and you like to watch dainty hipsters fling themselves into unsafe situations then you will like VBS.TV.

The OverDrone has just finished this book. The fourth set in an apocalyptic world where physics has gone awry. This is the first in a set of four and The OverDrone could not set it down. Despite it being Thanksgiving The OverDrone found himself being swept far away from the turkey and stuffing. Nobody does the mil-spec alternate worlds stuff like SM Stirling.

30 paintings of fantastical creatures in 30 days. At first The OverDrone was put off by the plain backgrounds but seeing them all together like this the blankness creates a shared dreaming, a floating world.

While looking around the website hosting Wim Delvoye’s zit-poppin’ masterpiece The OverDrone found this long documentary on DaDa. Dada was a movement which highlighted the absurd, shocking the art world off of it’s academic rails.

U B U W E B – Film & Video: Wim Delvoye

Short post today due to family being over for the holidays. The OverDrone spent the day at the Field Museum. As always the totem poles totally impressed.
Wim Delvoye produces a similar sense of wonder albeit at a lesser magnitude in his short film Sybille II. Beauty is not always thirty feet tall and made of wood. The OverDrone has found no way to embed this so click here and push play.
