Presenting The Bee Man of Orn

Posted by Alex on March 23rd, 2007 in Art, Required Reading, Ridiculousness, Gallery Addition, Website, Design

Python IronyI’m very proud to present something that will doubtless make 0 sense to any of you. Maybe I can give you alittle info buffer, so you wont think it’s just completely random…

The name of this is, as you probably already guessed, The Bee man of Orn vs Modern Society. It’s a grand epic of massive proportion. If any of you are like me, you probably dug on the book that inspired this ridiculousness: The Bee Man of Orn (original). This is kind of a reboot, but in actuality has little to no resemblance to it’s predecessor. This story only follows (very loosely) the cannon of the book: hero is a hermit, hero meets with intellectual and is told to find himself out in the world, hero meets characters and sees sights that show him the nature of the world, hero decides he likes being a hermit. Mine’s pretty… different. Enjoy.

I’m posting it here for now, but it’s place in the site will be the Design page, as soon as I have it up.

I’ve also started a sticky with most recent gallery additions. ?. This post will stay at the top, but change to the most recent thing up in the Art or Design sections. We’ll see how it works.

I went to Wells Hall to see a early screen of 300 this past Thursday. Student Activities hands out more tickets than they can fit in to ensure capacity.

“O.K.” I thought. “We’ll just get there an hour early.” Tim, Eric and I showed up one hour early, at 7. The line wound around the entire lower floor, at least 600 people were there as early as us. An hour and a half later, a tiny girl with 6 hulking cops in tow presented herself before us.

“Alright! Everybody listen! Up here! Look at me!”

Oh good, I thought.

“Warner Brothers did not hold up their deal with us! We haven’t received the reel! There is no movie, everybody go home!”

….

That’s what I call free interest research for Warner Brothers.
