I got both lovely pieces from the nicest woman you would ever care to meet. They belonged to her late husband who was clearly an electroics enthusiast. They came along with a stack of electronics catelogues and a "Popular mechanics"-esque type magazine from 1944! Tags:None. 0 Comments |

About meI am an artist for lack of a better word. I hate the term "artist" because it conjures up the vision of a holier-than-thou hipster type who makes up profound meanings for a blue canvas. Post modernism is rarely art. I’m not really an artsy person either. My wife studied art history and I enjoy things like that. I mostly subscribe to the "I may not know art, but I know what I like" philosophy.
I prefer terms like "Tinkerer", "Creator", "Maker" and "Builder". Constructive terms.
I like to make new things out of junk, bits, pieces and various miscellania. I recently decided this compulsion to build complex compilations of simple parts has roots in my childhood obsession with LEGO. My father made me a LEGO table from an old door and steel brackets that sat in our basement. I think I spent more time seated at that table bushing aside an ocean of coloured bricks searching for the specific one I needed than most people spent outside in their childhood.
