Trapezoid II (Excuse the HomePhotos/BadQuality, BetterToComeISwear.)
Medieval theory of divine authority of kings.
The king had two ‘bodies’, one of which was the ordinary
mortal one, the other infused with the divine right to
govern which marked off the monarch from other men.
and here are some earlier photos from this piece as it was in progress:

gutentag, es est wunderbar auf berlin heute.
there is no internet at home anymore, which means more
drawing, less nerding the fuck off. did i read that article
or was i downbloading something with that shade of green?
breakfast with the internet is less affectionate than
breakfast with graphite, and ink, frankly, ink washes and
brushes is a party by comparison to this stale and overrated
medium. i mean, really, have you seen the internet lately,
looks like shit, the internet needs to get off the hooch and
hit the gym.
but, so, drawings, yep doing em. making em. heres some
photos, but they are in no wunderbar order, they have errors
and levels, and indoor lamp lighting, so you cant really
take in the tones, i got a jar of sepia ink, and one of
umbra, so, now you know the tones im talking about, as well
as the always authentic tea wash. earl grey.

Trapezoid I
photographed. finally:
if a pyramid is the perfect symbol of hierarchy, as well as one of the original makings of advanced human hierarchy, a treasured symbol of our ability to make neat shit by exploiting people through infinitely complex and clever means, or simply violence. then a trapezoid is a headless pyramid, its the organs, the primal pile of tissues which fuels it, its the unconscious drive to manipulate and step on someone for your advantage, to piss on the helpless and shit on the downtrodden perhaps for no gain whatsoever. the scary possibility that humans are pinned in by evolution to be shitheads.
trapezoid 1 is the 1st in a series, this one is dedicated to toil. pointless fucking toil, mc donalds labor quality toil, exploiting and delivering meaninglessness to its victims.
so in case you didnt think video art could get worse:
Exercise Tape 1
and as has been said before:
in 2010 menglefia will rise.
and again, all apologies for this grave inconvenience, please enjoy this flickr stream.
