Today I came back to clean up my gallery and to generally make the page look a little more presentable, and a little less fail.

Right now my artistic sensibilities have been really focused on writing, and music. A few years ago me and my friends formed a sort of experimental music collective called "Argonne Forest." I have been doing a lot of ambient music under that moniker. Also been working on fleshing out my "Vampire: The Requiem" setting "World of Darkness: Pittsburgh" which I might submit to White Wolf in hopes of publication.

What is new in my life? Well I have yet to piss another rock, which is nice. Anytime stones aren't flying out of my penis is good thing. I am looking for work. And I recently summoned a demoness from hell. And she is pretty much wreaking havoc on my life. But shes really hot and I love her. So what can I say? I just keep her under control with wards and spells.

I spend most of my time playing video games, smoking (yeah I smoke now...great), playing grab ass with my neighbor, trying to get my dog to behave, and indulging in Lilium Orexis at every opportunity (the afore mentioned demoness). Occasionally I compose something, and then feel a strong sense of self satisfaction. Then I usually nap.

Anyway thats it! If you haven't talked to me in awhile and want to catch up please do! It would be nice to hear from some of you. Also I have a Facebook page now. If you want to add me as a friend just ask

Well Summer 2007 is slowly winding to a close, so I figured I might as well clean out the old Deviatons folder. Yep 6 more industrial wasteland pictures for you to enjoy! After this no more, so dont ask!

The only way I can describe this past summer, is to call it bi-polar. One minute I am celebrating joyus moments, like ascending to broadband, or earning the adoration of someone special. The next min I am doubled over on the floor, peeing rocks.

I finally did pass my kidney stone, on August 14th. It actually wasn't so bad. It hardly hurt comming out, it was sheer hell trying to get it ready to come out. If anyone wants a kidney stone, i highly reccomend agasn't them. They are very very painful, and not fun. No matter how cool someone says they are, trust me. YOU DON'T WANT ONE!

Well now it seems I am on the mend, and the soft sweet days of fall are getting ready to drift slowly over the sun scorched land. And honestly I couldn't be happier! After an emotionally exhausting summer, I am ready (and deeply hoping for) a quiet peaceful fall. Just me, my video games, my RPGs, and my ugly dog...

Also it seems I am fastly approaching 5000 hits. This is a major milestone, and I plan on celebrating it, by taking a screen shot, then taking a nap

Back on May 18th I began to feel pretty sick to my stomach. It didn't feel too unusual until the next day. When I began to really really hurt. At times it felt like my side was literally going to explode. It was horrid. But after a bad weekend, it stopped. Then on tuesday (May 22) I was hurting so bad that I had to be rushed to the hospital (i literally couldn't stand up I was in so much pain)

After several hours of tests, and good drugs, they found out I had a kidney stone...

So yeah the past few weeks have been no fun at all. Suddenly my world was turned upside down. I was always comfortable believing things like: groin pain, seeing blood in your urine, and straining your urine through a filter, were bad and perverse activities. But now suddenly they had become part of my everyday existance.

But now, its been 20 days since I've had any real pain, and it at least seems I am on the mend. So back to the petty tyrannies of my life. Thank GOD!

Well here are more photos from that nice day out in early May. Also for my die hard fans (both of you) here is a photo of me in the hospital. [link]
Sadly its possible, thats one of the better photos of me. I am not sure what that says about the ways of my life. Nor do I really care.

I have been ignoring this web site for too long, and its a shame. It all really comes down to sloth, and lack of any real creative drive. But recently I went on a walking tour of the industrial section of the city, and now I have some interesting materials to upload.

This city has many industrial sections. The one you will see is a mass of abandoned (and crumbling) factories and buildings. Even some abandoned nuclear research centers! It was a great day

Also I'd like to touch on something thats been bothering me for awhile... I know i am going to get shit for this but I just have to say something

I think its time we all banded together and started the "Save Kayleigh" movement!
"Kayleigh" is the DevID of Kassandra Leigh Purcell [link]
So what does she need saving from? Well to be honest I am not sure, but something clearly has to be done! You see Kassandra used to be one of my most favorite models on here. Many a night were spent staring at her photos, and dreaming of all the things I will never have. But anymore that feeling is gone. Instead now I see something that is a remant of what once was. To put it plainly and simply (if not a bit bluntly) she is loosing her looks faster than the USA lost the war in Iraq! Take for example this "new" pic of her [link] now here is an older pic [link] Notice how much more amazing, sensual, and just plain luscious she looked? Now she just looks like, well. Like something is horridly wrong. I could show you more examples, but I just don't feel like wasting the time! Look for yourself! Go to her gallery and look at the first 2 pages. Then go back about 5 or 6 pages. You will notice the difference almost immediately.

Maybe its an artistic choice to go for the "dungeon waif" look? Maybe people find this new look of hers unbearably sexy! Maybe I am just out of touch and stupid. But whatever the case, I for one wish she would go back to the way she used to look! I am not suggesting anything about her. And I want to go on record saying that I DON’T think she has an eating disorder (she still looks WAY too healthy for that.) I just think maybe there is some serious discord in her life, and that is manifesting itself in her looks. She is like a beautiful musical instrument, that is now playing out of tune. Maybe other people notice this as well? Maybe they are just afraid to say anything, for fear she might go away. And then we will be left without her beauty (and no I'm not being sarcastic, she is still unbearably beautiful) But I couldn't sit on this for too long. I just had to throw it out there.


Well anyway enjoy the updates and....

SAVE KAYLEIGH!

Hello everyone, Not much new here but I felt since it is a new year. And since 4000 hits is just moments away. I might as well update my page a bit, and then go and do what I do best...Nap

As I mentioned above 4000 page views is literally moments away. So far my estimation of it taking roughly 7 months for me to get 1000 pageviews is correct. This then means that my prediciton (or perhaps prophecy?) of me getting 10,000 page views by 2010 is also probably correct. And as I said back in Jan of 2006. By 2010 I will probably be an alcoholic, and wont exist anymore. Or maybe it will, but it will be a television network kind of like the Home Shopping Network.
I'd like to move it up to 1000 pageviews every 3 months. That will land me at 10,000 pageviews by about spring of next year. To do that though I am actually going to have to come up with some semi-interesting content!

Level 5 Cruac rituals suck. And make me vomit snakes

I am planning on re-infusing my page with stuff. I have been creativly lazy and I am not proud of that. I hope to have 20 new things by the end of march. I also hope to do a lot of things. Doesn't mean it is going to happen
One of my biggest problems right now is I am surrounded by productivity killers. Such as
1. I got a MIDI keyboard for Xmas, and now I spend my nights making funny noises and waking the nighbors. Take a listen! [link]
2. Zhou Zhou (my pet goblin) [link] attacks me at every turn. That is terribly distracting
3. Final Fantasy XII is amazing, and everything I want in an RPG. And yes Vaan [link] makes me question my sexuality
4. I'm surrounded by sexy Vampire bitches....

Anyone wanna let me take photos of them naked? Its not for art or anything. I just really wanna see someone naked. Please? I guess I could make it art if you want

This rules [link]


Well that is all for me. I just ate to much pizza and now I fancy a nap. I'll post something meaningful someday. Maybe this week. Depends on if I can get Robert Smith to stop making love to me with his eyes


Nobody wants to be my friend because they either die or get hurt

Well now I am back!
I mean i never really left, i just ran totally, creativly dry! And thats never a good thing! SO what happened while I was gone? Well not much at all. I am back at school...The OLD school :sigh:
Yeah i am just there killing time until I can get a real school to play attention to me. Also I have been at for 2 years now! Its hard to believe its only been 2. It seems like 4. But yeah, its been 2 wonderful years. I should wax poetic about all of the things that have happend. But why bother?

The Economics of Gallery Managment
So here I am back at I am still running dry creativly, but I figured being "back" might get the juices flowing! I am uploading some interesting JPG experiments I did while gone. Plus the first photo in the second PSP background series. I also audited my gallery and got rid of some of the un-popular pics. I also took the PSP backgrounds from series 1 and cut them down to the top 3 pics

As of 11-18-06 they are as follows
(views / downloads)
1. Protocol Mist 153 / 91
2. Psychoactive Springtime 136 / 54
3. Hypercubal 137 / 48

10 more are on the way! So sit tight!


Also before I go feel i need to comment on the new design!
I really like it! Its far more functional, errors less, and its very style neutral! Which i think is important! This website displays every possible artistic style under the sun. The physical design of the site should be as neutral as possible! Once again I must say the logistics of this place blows my mind!!!!

Anyway that is all from me. I promise to never leave you without your Vekk fix again

woooooo

I arrived at 1000 hits on June 10th 2005
and now its January... So according to my calculations it takes me about 7 months to gain 1000 hits. I am not sure if that is a good thing or not :-\
If this trend continues I should arrive at 3,000 hits around August sometime. Also I will arrive at 10,000 hits in November....of the year 2010...
At that point I will be 30 years old, a raging alcoholic, and chances are won't even exist anymore :-\

So ok now its time for the obligatory thank yous and shouts outs!

A very special thanks goes too...

My stomach my be currently undergoing the rapture, but its been awhile since my last update. So I figured it’s high time I had a nice update!

I have 3 nudes of Annie K going up, and those my dear friends are it. I took 200 photos of Ann (only roughly 70 were nude and only about 30 were any good and worth looking at) and only 6 survived a catastrophic Windows crash. Ann is 23 now, she was 20 when I took those pics back in 2002. She’s a lovley person and great fun to be around, but her nude modeling days are over. The only person that gets to see her naked nowadays is her lucky boyfriend Colin [link]
I am uploading the 1st nude with this update, its a bit of a teaser and its actually a Xmas themed desktop background!


This update isn’t just about Annie! This is also clearing out my “deviations” folder for the year! [link]
I am uploading the last of my “edge detection” series, my second “Graphyte” pic (which was designed to accompany the MAC OSX Graphite theme) 1 more “Elektrik Meter” pic, and the final picture (and the trippiest in my opinion) of the “Dorset Perception” seiries!

I’m almost out of new material but don’t worry, I plan on doing some experimental low light photography, at the beginning of next year! Good results (if any at all) will undoubtly end up on here

Also in Dr. Vekk related news I am addicted to Soul Calibur III...

Thats it, I’m done, you can go away now (^_^)


(next update I am going to narrow my “best of” list down to 10!)





]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/7039279/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/7039279/ Sun, 13 Nov 2005 19:47:02 PST Holy shit it’s here!

1 year at !!!!!


Three things really amaze me right now!

1. How crazy fast 1 year went. I mean I knew it was going to sneak up on me, but damn!
2. How different this year and last year are. I am not going to go into the details, but it’s like I am a whole different world.
3. That the mystery girl is still just as sexy, but I think her brain is dying or something.

I am really happy I joined up, and I enjoy being here a lot. It gives me something to do other than go to bed, or other semi-healthy activities

WELL ANYWAY lets look back for a bit shall we?

According to the Gallery Stats my most popular deviation is
“Stain” [link]
Which honestly doesn’t suprise me because it is one of my best pictures. It’s just a picture of a water-tower, but the heavy colour tinting and the odd angle and framing, make it very alien.
Also according to Gallery Stats my most “favourited” deviation is
“Zhou Zhou Lian-Proper” [link]
Which again doesn’t suprise me, but kinda upsets me. I mean I love my dog, she is sitting right here snoring! How could you not love a squishy, snoring thing!? But I have so many pictures that i consider amazing, and more diserving of a “favourite” than a snapshot of my puppy in my chair!

So here are 19 pictures I think are my VERY best. If you don’t want to take the time going through my gallery, these are what I consider ESSENTIAL viewing!

“Corrosion” [link] This is another of the same water tower as in seen in “Stain”. It’s amazing how such a ridgid structure can be morphed into so many surreal shapes!
”Sound Passion Buddha V.1” [link] Although version 2 [link] is pretty popular, I’ve always felt V.1 is better. It feels so dreamy and almost liquid like. LIke the whole object is some sort of colloid.
”MMV Special Edition.” [link] I took a shit load of photos at the David L. Lawrence convention center in Pittsburgh Pennyslvania. This is one of my all time favourites! So much going on in this photo. A very old bridge as seen thru the windows of a very modernistic building. And of course the father and the daughter standing together in the middle. There are a lot of symbols in this pic, perhaps to many for a desktop image,
”Spizz PSA” [link] This is my attempt at dry humour. When I took this photo I thought “holy shit this looks like something from a public service health anouncement!” Poor Jon, he doesn’t even know this is on here!
”Slave” [link] For me joy of sadism is in its subtle plesures. For me this desktop displays that. It’s simple and very clean, but very aesthetic. Keeping something minimal while still exciting is difficult. This is one of many collaborations with my friend Kelly [... ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/6944837/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/6944837/ Thu, 03 Nov 2005 13:13:04 PST My 1st year anniversary at is only 10 days away!
Soooooo to put my house in order so to speak... In 10 days there will be a Deviation elimination, followed by a large update of new material!

Now with that out of the way, on to something a little more interesting
Last night I saw the movie "Elephant" and here is my review!

I’ve been out of what I would consider school for about 6 years now. You see College (or University if you are so inclined) is far from school. To me school connotes an image of strife, isolation, paranoia, stark terror, studded with small moments of peace. Which is exactly why the movie Elephant moves me so much. You see I was one of those, now stereotypical severely disgruntled students. I had been down that dark and hopeless road of forced anonymity and victimization. I had many times wanted to lash out at the paralyzingly oppressive world around me. The only reason I didn’t was because I had a good system that allowed me to deal with the stress (mainly consisting of video games and the loudest Techno angry Germans could produce!) But this movie is far more than the now boring tale of school kids bullied and getting revenge (with sometimes terryfying, and sometimes funny results.) This movie is a tale of 2 students whom decide to unleash hell upon the students of their school, by way of a columbine style massacre. The movie is shot in distant style which I’d like to call “Omnipotent Documentary.” Which means its clearly trying to document a fictitious event in a very realistic way, but the cameramen are invisible and outside of time. Which becomes apparent because the movie jumps around in time, going backwards and forwards revealing small plot points as it moves around. While I find this storytelling style still entertaining, its starting to get boring because so many “art house” films are using it. Why did telling a story from start to finish become offensive to artistic sensibilities? The cinematography is beautiful, which is only to be expected anymore. Every scene flows with a careful and at times sickeningly slow pace. The scenes in the school itself are the most powerful. NEVER before in my love of cinema have I seen the world of the American public school so accurately portrayed. The school is this brutally stark, and painfully austere maze of unintentionally minimalist architecture. The school lacks any clear geography, and you never see nature, or anything natural from inside of it. When you do catch a glimpse of a tree or car, its out of focus or obscured. Its just seemingly endless either eerily dark, or harshly lit corridors of nameless, and often faceless people. The film likes to follow the students thru this maze, 10 feet from them as they worm their way thru like rats seeking cheese (which I know is a very overused metaphor, but that is the only way to describe it) While it does so the viewer begins to feel this sense of claustrophobia, and isolation. Which is exactly what it feels like to be in a modern American high-school. This perfectly illustrated sense is accentuated by some very impressive sound design. The sounds of the school: the chatter, the off-key band music, someone's errant boom box are all combined into a deafening cacophony of white noise. Almost like what you would hear in a nightmare or a drug induced hallucination. This perfectly emphases the delirium. During the shooting sequence sounds of birds along with rapidly echoing chattering voices can be heard over the footsteps of the killers. Which brings me to my next point. The sounds of the birds seem to be attacking the previously harsh sound design of the early scenes. In many ways this is what the killers do. They attack the pervasive and often overpowering conformity of the school scenes. The whole movie does not take place at the school. The few home scenes are exact opposite of the school scenes. The lighting is much warmer, the sound design consists of chimes, and soft piano music. The home becomes a sanctuary from the hyper-reality of the school. This is obviously not your typical teen angst drama-movie. This movie was carefully thought out and planned, a lot of emotion went into it. It is at times boring and long winded in its scene direction (which isn’t a negative, but an entirely intentional artistic choice, but for some it will be an instant turn off) When the bloody shooting scene does start, one is almost thankful in a way. It breaks the suffocating feeling that the movie takes so much care to create. And this leads me to the symbolism of the movie. This isn’t a movie to watch with your mind, turn on your soul and feel what this movie is. This movie isn’t about two angry... ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/5604358/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/5604358/ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 22:31:18 PDT for a week! I dunno how this happend, but I'd like to beleive that someone donated it to me. However whenever I click the "be generous" button, I don't see a "1 week" option. Oh well, I'm just lucky I guess.

Listening to: The Theme to the TV show "Gungrave"
Reading: Mac OSX Tiger for Dummies.

So ok I figured since I'm now a member of I will do a nice long journal entry to take advantage of all these wonderful features! Also this might be my last one for a little while. You see soon I will be moving over to the wonderful world of Mac! Also the computer I am on now is getting wonky. The hard-drive has been "barking" at me! No way in hell thats good! So it looks like sometime next week I will be ripping this old hard drive out, and having my friend Adam The Mad Technician put a new one in for me. Why do it yourself when you have people to do it for you? Besides I promised to "kellysit" while he does the work. Today while I was backing stuff up I found some leftover Deviations to be uploaded. I figured I would upload em now, less to unpack so to speak... So yeah here are my final deviations before my bit switch! Next time you see me I will be running an OS that works! (oooooo a cheap shot! )

So even tho I will only get to enjoy my "membership" for 4 days, I will always choose to believe that some beautiful young Deviant (male or female) donated this to me because they adore me!

Things I've learned while at Deviant Art

-I've learned that alot of people don't know how to take compliments gracefully

-DevWatching someone just because they are cute feels wrong, yet I do it anyway.

-Advice to lonely guys on if she is pretty, she doesn't want to talk to you!

-Advice to girls on . Uploading a pic of your bf, or a guy you like isn't art. I've said this many times before. Just because you think he is the greatest thing alive, doesnt mean he is. No one cares about your BF, chances are you shouldn't either.

-Want pageviews? Take nudes of someone you know, do a desktop background, or draw cute doodles of anime characters.

-People take the rules on there stock accounts EXTREMLY seriously. I can't count the number of people I've seen with more than 15 rules of proper use of their stock. I once had a member freak out the threaten to close their account, because I wanted to use an un-altered image for my desktop background... My grandfather once said; "If you think your important, your probably not."

-Even tho I bitch constantly about this place, that doesn't mean I don't love it! I think is a wonderful place full of wonderful people. But since when did wanton praise make for interesting reading?

Things people have asked me at Devant Art

Q:"Do you think its ok, for you to tell me I'm sexy, when its obvious I have a boyfriend?"
A: Yeah, do you think its ok to watch tv if you have a radio?

Q:"What kind of milk do you drink."
A: Usually 2%

Q:"What motivates you"
A: Usually boredom, and the overwhelming desire for praise

Q:"What would you consider your style?"
A: I'd consider it quite stylish.

Exactly who the hell is Dr. Vekk?

Dr. Vekk is a broken man who is traped in a failing city, thats in a backwards state, thats in a degraded nation drunk with fear. 5 years ago he built a place known as the "Progression Lab" and there he sits listening to ambient music, and dreaming of a bright future. He enjoys reading medical journals, and aspires to be a psychology professor, and cult leader. He is an avid Transhumanist philosopher, and loves dogs. He is a recovering Pepsi Blue addict, and once owned a human being as a pet. He knows his website sucks, and redily admits he is an asshole (^_^)

Here is to another 6 months at I love this fscking place!



And a special thanks to everyone that has been so very nice to me, and has gotten some sort of joy from my work! Camus said that the human condition is absurd. If one of my pics has taken your mind off of the absurdity of everyday life,... ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/4913395/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/4913395/ Fri, 25 Mar 2005 21:52:06 PST YEAH 600 HITS! WOOOHOOOO!

So yeah Ive been at for 4 months now and i have 600 hits and a ton of wasted time i love this place tho I wouldn't spend at least 20 hours a week here if I didn't

Just wanted to let my fans (all 5 of you) know what I have been up too.

I have been busy doing nothing as they say. I have been mostly being a pervert and playing video games, but as far as art goes I havn't had any real desire to do anything artistic as far as photography goes. I;ve re-opend my website and if anyone really wants to read a day to day account of my activities you can go there. This journal will be really just to notify you of any art related news. I will update it rougly every 50 hits to document it.

I should have some new pictures comming in the next few weeks, it is spring and I havn't ventured into my woods in quite some time so look forward to that. Also I am in barganing talks with Annie K and her BF about posting some of the nudes I did of her!

I'm having one of those days and I just got up... First of all its horridly cloudy, The Grey Season [link] in full effect! Second of all I'm fasting which has my bio-chemistry all wonky, third of all I have to apply for graduation by 2/15 and NO ONE will tell me how to do this! My college's website isn't any help either...... Why one must "APPLY" for graduation is beyond me! I chalk it up as the bi-product of one of the most American of American traditions; that is things being way more complicated than they should be. It's a crying shame how tradgically complicated some things are...

I saw something horrifying on sunday. I witnessed the "Puppy Bowl"
It was Animal Planet's answer to the super bowl. It was 3 hours of fixed camera angles on puppies playing... Not video clips, just live footage of puppies playing in a giant playpen made to look like a football stadium. It even had instant replay... Now honestly the subject matter wasn't scary. This is so bizzare that its ALMOST Avant Garde, but the implications of this being considerd "entertainment" are what is truly horrifying!!!!!

Well I am bitter and frustrated as always. I'm going to go now and do some more random odd jobs while I wait for this guy from my school to e-mail me back.

What a ROM? Essentially a ROM is a the image of the data off of an old video game cartridge (now no bitching, i know thats not the proper defenition, but for the people that dont know what it is, thats a good enough defenition!) You see a I got a Sega Genesis emulator for my PS2, which means i put games on a thumb drive, plug the thumb drive into the USB port on my PS2 and then play 16bit Sega Genesis games on my 128bit Sony Playstation 2. Yeah its more exciting than it sounds, well if your a nerd it sure is... Some of these games really bring back some good memories, some I havnt played in 13 or 14 years!!! Mostly old skool Japanese side scrolling shooters and platformers. Its funny that one game "Whip Rush" i hadn't played in almost 12 years and I still remember the theme song by heart! Also tonight I found out just how much I have grown since my NES days. I actually made it all the way to level 4 of Marble Madness... This was something that before was impossible! See thats how I judge my video game skills... By how far I can get in Marble Madness.

Well thats all for today, im going to sleep cuz i have school tomarrow. But before that, here comes 2 more deviations for y'all to enjoy!

Sadly I had to venture out in this cold, I had a test to take today on campus. So I had to get up, put on my thermal armor (cuz thats really what a coat that heavy is) and travel to a frozen college campus. Have you ever been in a cold so cold that the air tastes funny? Almost like your drinking frozen oxygen rather than breathing air? That was today! At school everything was quiet because most of the people were just too cold to make noise. I pittied the few smokers that braved the invisible falls of frozen oyxgen; to take in a few lungfulls of precious nicotine. I too had spent many a day outside talking to my friend Sara while she loads herself up before our mythology class. But that was 4 years ago Well now i am home, and I am spending some sexy quality time with the mystery girl Im just glad she really pumps out the BTU's! There is no better way to warm up than by cuddling a half cat/half girl thing
Well I am going to go upload some prime deviations for you my adoring fans to enjoy. I had a mjor creative surge on tuesday night, and from which came the "COMS" siries Your gonna LOVE those (^_^)
After I do that I think iI am going to go take a nice nap, then spend the night engaging in video games, and sin

A CAR WRECKED INTO MY HOUSE!!!
Ok all was calm I was sitting back talking to the mystery girl, wondering when dinner was going to show up, and then at about 9:18pm I hear a really loud "WHUMP"
So I think its a the bookshelf falling down again.

But then i hear what sounds like a car struggling, and it sounds REALLY close...and Im like "Ok whats going on outside." So I look outside and I see a VW Passat rammed into the front of my house....

Apprently some drunk woman came around my hill and wrecked right into the front of my house!!!!!!

So thankfully NO ONE was hurt and the house wasn't even damaged... The extent of the damage is a messed up front yard, and a fucked up bush! No structural damages WHAT-SO-EVER! SO as far as I am concerned I am lucky... I'm just mad about 3 things...
1. Im mad that I almost didnt check... That would have been embarssing... My dad comes home and is like "Anthony, you do realize that there is a car wrecked into the house right?" and I would have been like 'wha? Oh yeah the bookshelf fell.."
2. My first reaction was to call my neighbor to make sure im really seeing it
3. I almost took a nap, and if i did i would have NEVER known...

Im sitting here watching the Eukanuba (what the hell does that mean anyway!?) dog show. Yeah I'm a big animal lover. About 5 months ago my little dog Julie died. I really miss her. I don't really know how she died, i just woke up one morning and she was dead under the step!
SO yeah I really miss having a dog. Im actually thinking of getting a shar-pei. They are hard to describe but they are pretty much a pile of wrinkles and love. Kinda like a grandmother...

This past week was so busy, I started back to school this week, and that was fun. I really like my classes and I am enjoying myself yet again. I can't beleive this! Enjoying myself 2 semesters in a row!!

Well I really have nothing interesting to say, so I am going to go upload a few pics, then take a nap, and hopefully be up in time to watch "Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex."

ahhh so here we are in the year 2005
So far it feals pretty damn good, its shiny and new and very high tech. It even has that new car smell (which oddly enough is poisonous...)
So yeah let's recap what the mad Dr. Vekk did this past week!

The Week After Xmas

Monday: I have this weird aunt named Regina. She is very "New York Italian." I only get to see her around Xmas, and I actually really like seeing her because she is such a hysterical stereotype that its entertaining just to listen to her talk! So I went to the mall with her on this day. The mall was mad, it was full of very agresive shoppers and beautiful young women with there slack jawed, boarder line retarted boyfriends. Why so many American girls think thats attractive is beyond me! I would have really enjoyed this outing but I was fealing very ill, and this sick fealing just got worse as the day went on. So by 4pm i was fealing just plain sick. I went home shortly later and crashed on my bed. Oh and just in case you are curious all I bought were 2 belts, and a copy of the movie "Akira" on DVD.
Tuesday: I spent all day laying around and maoning things like "Oh god im dying!!!! arrgh!" and my fav "Somebody make the pain go away!" In all truth I wasn't that sick, i just liked being a drama queen for a day.
Wednesday: I called a company named "Datel" They make a software suite for the PS2 called the "Pro Action Replay." I had orderd one for myself on Dec 11 and have yet to recieve it in the mail... I called them today, left a message to be called back...and then went to sleep...
Thursday: Today was BORING so boring I think I blocked the entire day because I dont remember shit about it!
Friday: I returned to the mall today, it was noticibly less busy today. A DVD I had special orderd from Barned & Noble had come in and i was in a hurry to go pick it up. I also went to a store called "Media Play." and bought a CD called "Hardcore & Acid." Its a collection of german techno tracks. I also got a copy of the game "Bloodrayne II." Why you ask? Well why wouldn't I was to play a game in which you control a murderous bi-sexual vampire goth chick?!
Today: Well I got up hella late and cleaned up my chill room. What a great way to spend the first day of the year 2005. I really hope this year is better than my last 2. Last year started off ok, then got worse until about October, when suddenly EVERYTHING changed and got better! 2003, however started off bad, and got preogressivly worse. 2003 was EASILY the worst year of my life so far. Of course in truth if 2003 is the worst year I ever have, I'm doing pretty damn good! Right now tho I am just trying to be real positive. A new year for me represents new possibilities and new chances. I love this feeling right now.

Well I am going to go listen to a CD and upload some random crap Just for the hell of it.

oh yeah and this week marked 300 pageviews at

Today was a very very good Xmas. Not the best, but sure in hell not the worst! It was very quiet, and very cold today. No family came over, which is to be expected. My family hates each other. I am not sure why they do, but it would be easier to get a permanent peace in the middle east than get my family to eat at a table together on a holiday. Not suprisingly I dont mind this. A quiet Xmas at home is almost idyllic for me. To some people this paints me as a crazy recluse... However I just like to quietly appreciate things. I think thats why I made a piss poor raver...

I didn't get everything I asked for...The mystery girl sadly wasn't under my tree... SO I guess there is always next year...

Well anyway I am going to finish this up and go play some more video games. I have a nice evening planned. I am going to wrap xmas up by doing sequentially more perverse activities, until im doing something so horrible that I may get shot dead.


Holiday Well Wishes!

To my Catholic, Christian, Mormon, Baptist, ect. friends: Merry Christmas!
To my afrocentric friends: Happy Kwanzaa!
To my atheist friends: Happy non-denominational end of year feast day!
To the followers of Satan: ehhhhh your scary
To members of any of the many alien worshipping suicide cults: Congradulations! The Journar of Juk-Pular is almost complete! The time of blue trancendence is nearing! The comming of the meteor star ship will mark the moment of the final transmigration!
To the Neo-Facists: Oh sit down and shut up, your not cool
To the "Pop Depressed": Don't worry, after your glorious sucide everyone will regret ever even trying to be happy
To the fellow members of the "Pandemic Church of the Omnisentient Garphoo: My your sequence of plesure be as sticky and delcious as mine
To the high council of the LeMure vampire tribe: Enjoy the peace while it lasts, because with the comming of the new moon brings the comming of the new order!
To the crazy peoples: heheheheh yes no maybe so!
To the murderous: hehe yes, she really does want it...why don't you give it to her! Yes give her what she needs...
To the members of doomsday cults: Yes its soon! So chill!
To the very confused: HEHEHE BLURT!

Well anyway I love xmas, there is just so much to like about it. I know its awfully posh to dislike xmas. I attribute this to the ever growing ranks of the "Pop Deprssed" (that is those that act depressed or mentally ill, because they think its cool to do so) I mean if your a wanna be depressed person, Xmas is pretty much the antithesis of everything you stand for. Its about caring, loving, sharing, bright colours, wanton fantasy, and of course unberable acts of conspicuious consumption. Well this entry isn't about that tho, this is about me! ME ME ME ME ME ME ME!

So in the holy American/capitalist tradition of conspicuous consumption here are some of the things I want for Xmas and why!
1. Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturn [link] : So why would I want a game about a boy who is one of the lone survivors of the rapture, and was given the power over angels and demons alike to reshape the world based on his descisions? I mean why would anyone want a game with some of the most compelling and unique artwork to come out of the sick mind of a overworked Japanese man since Urotsukidoji (props to anyone who knows the reference)? Oh yeah! WHY WOULDN'T I !?

2. THX-1138 (on DVD)[link] Ok so not many people have heard of this film. It is more polished version of George Lucas' student film. I have been waiting for a DVD release of this since 1998 (when I got my first DVD player). I am fully aware that Lucas made some aditions to this film, but to my best knowledge all of the aditions are very good ones, and actually do serve to enhance the film. I just love this film, its stark, minimalist setting is just beautiful to me, and the sound design is brilliant!

3. Orbital: The Blue Album: Supposedly the last album from this brilliant star in the vast universe of electronic music. Its lush, organic, and hullcinogenic. I can't think of a better CD to listen too on a long, cold, winter night!

4. The Mystery girl: Preferbly I would like her in my bed, wraped in red ribbon, holding a basket of condoms...

Well there you go just some of the 500+ things I want for xmas! Well I am going to go now, I have a glass of water, a documentary on "General Reletivity and Quantum Mechanics", and 7 new "deviations" to upload!

mmmmm smells like meatload... ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/4084807/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/4084807/ Thu, 16 Dec 2004 23:26:43 PST
MOOO

oh sorry yeah anyway its time for random song lyrics
(bet ya never heard this one!)

"Every Home is Wired" by "Porcupine Tree"

Modem load and failsafe
Electric teenage dust
Hit the solvent keypad
Start the neural rust

Power on the highway
Data in my head
Surfing on the network
Part of me is dead

Every Home is Wired

Swimming in the circuit
Somebody has expired
This world will be the future

Every home is wired

It's been a very fast one month, so far in one month i have uploaded 53 deviations, and done 10 journal entries, had over 200 page views, and hit on countless girls, I mean after all i did join dA because of a certain mystery girl!
It's sad that for the many years I've been visiting dA, thats the reason I join. But I say that doing something for love, or for the possibility of love really is the only good reason to do anything.

For me artwork is the ultimate act of love. I hear about 10 people a week tell me that there art is suffering made physical, or a way to work out there frustrations. I say tho that for me artwork is an act of love, when you take the time to create something of beautiy, or in my case represent something of beauty, even if it is a macabre or distorted beauty, its still an act of love. I honestly think that the only reason people say that is because they think its cool too, or because they think its the classic artist stereotype. I remember an episode of The Beverly Hillbillies were Jethro (the son) was an artist and said to paraphrase "I need to suffer for my art, thats what artists do." So if that doesn't show the stereotype status of that, i dont know what does. Well I am going to go eat fuud and watch tv. Im bored, its midnight, and i have a headache. If this entry is scatterd thats why

Here is too another month and another 100 pageviews at ! ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/4008074/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/4008074/ Tue, 07 Dec 2004 01:40:22 PST tired as always, tired as always...
I once read about a new drug that treats chronic fatigue... I honestly think I have that because no matter now much sleep i get, im always so tired. If I had money or was lucky enough to be born into healthcare. Then i would go to the doctors and get all these weird health problems of mine taken care of.

So today was the monday after a sub mediocre weekend. I mean any weekend by defenition is a good one, but this past one was so boring that both days seemed to meld into one day. Even the dinner of about 20 pounds of chinese food on saturday was below par. About 8 months ago this cute lil chinese takeout place opened up 5 minutes from my house, it was the greatest simple things to happen to me in a long time.

Today was very cloudy and quiet, a very noir style day. The late fall and early winter days in Pittsburg are cold, gray, and very dreary. Around 1995 it seems we stopped having identifiable seasons here in Pittsburgh. We have 3 seaons now, Spring, Summer and...
"The Gray Seaon." Which is what we find ourselves in now. Its not just cloudy, no its this deep inpenetrable greyness. You look around in the sky and its this even gray for as long as they eye can see. You cant even tell were sunlight is comming from. Occasionally darker clouds drift like smoke underneathe the gray ceiling. Sometimes its so dim during the days that using lights indoors is a must. We have have 4 more months of this to look forward too. It usually lasts from October to about April. One has to be very vigilant during these bleak months or they fall into a kind of dpression, that usually involves alot of sleeping and drinking. It's not so bad during the first 3 months (Oct, Nov, Dec) becuase it is essentially the holiday season, but during the last 3 (Jan, Feb, Mar) it can be brutal on a persons psyche. I mean to not see a blue sky, or stars or the moon for sometimes weeks at a time can be brutal. I try to organize friendly get togethers and keep myself busy with fantasy. It helps alot beleive me.
Springs here are wild, the weather is so unpredictable that its almost like a cosmic joke. One day its sunny and perfect in every way, the next it is snowing... Summer's here range from blissfully mild(75 to 80 degrees, a cool sweet breeze, blue skies with soft cumulus clouds drifting like airships), to Post ecological distaster tropical (85 to 103 degrees, dark azure skies, no breeze, humidty so thick that computer systems break down, sun so hot that the leaves on the trees turn black and die) Somtimes during these hotter days we are invaded by clouds of poisonous Ozone that chokes the sky, staining it a dark orange, reducing the sun to a small round orange ball. The air is very thick and tastes really bad. During these days the local tv is clogged with warnings to stay inside, and shut your windows. Such is life here, Im use to it, most people never beleive me when i tell them just how alien things are here. But truth be told if you look at your life hard enough, your own life could be very alien too. Often we ignore the stranger things because western sensabilities tell us to ignore the deviant and embrace the fammilar.

Spending the entire day working on a project was an almost anticlimactic ending to a pretty decent week. lets recap this past week off!
MONDAY: Well actually I can't really remember monday...I know i did SOMETHING and chances are it was lame and nerdy. But since I don't remember what exactly I did on monday there is a possibility that what I did on monday is actually causing my memory loss!
TUESDAY: um yeah I really don't remember tuesday either... could it be becuase of a time rift? or is it really that my memory really is that piss poor!?
WEDNESDAY: On that day i celebrated my b-day party, it was alot of fun until my buddy George left in a huff, Im not sure what that was all about but I just chalk it up to George being George.
THURSDAY: This was thanksgiving, and I was thankful for quite a bit, but mostly the kick ass good turkey and the "American Chopper Marathon" and "Killzone" which is taking over my life. I was also thankful for that mystery girl! who's identity seems to be driving my friends nuts!
FRIDAY: Friday was my actual birthday, so I kinda just sat alone and thought about alot of stuff...Then i got high and masturbated
SATURDAY: I guess Fridays excess got the best of me and I didnt roll out of bed until 3pm! Its kind of depressing to get up and see the sun going down, this made me feel very goth! wow im a dork
SUNDAY(today): uhhh Wow so here I sit growing more and more tired by the minute, and what sucks is i know that Im only going to get 4 hours of sleep tonight. If this entry seems more illiterate than normal its because i have been typing all day long. It's the classic college story, i put off a major project until the last minute. But its done and now I am drained. I think I sprained my typing muscle

on a side note....why does 80's pop music (synth heavy) make me think of Anime?
oh yeah and DAMMIT I LOVE MESAMUNE SHIROW!

This week also marked my first 100 pageviews at dA!

Ever have one of those nights were you just dont want to sleep? You know you look at the clock and its 2am. Normal sane people are asleep, or having sex, or doing drugs or something. But no not you, your sitting there alone, in your room staring at a clock. How very deviant you are! Well when that situation happens to me, (and it does at least 6 days a week) I turn to a movie to watch. Yeah movies tend to cure this ailment. Here now are 5 movies to watch at 2am. No they aren't all porn, alto that is one good idea. Ahem but as I was saying what qualifies a movie to be perfect for 2am? Well for one its long, by the time this movie is off you will be ready for sleep, or already asleep. Another reason is that its entertaining, a 2am you really just dont have time for frivolity, you need something entertaining and you need it now. So here is my list for better or for worse.

1. Trainspotting: This is one of those "college essential" movies, that is a movie that every college student will (or at least SHOULD) see at least once every year. Its a demi-epic tale of a young guy and his love affair with heroin, and all the hilarity that ensues. This movie is a coming of age, cautionary tale, without feeling like either of the two. I think one of the reasons this movie is college essential, is because more than a few mis-guided people feel that the lifestyle portrayed in this movie, is very close to the typical college experience. If you think that you are going to go to college, squat in a house, do drugs, have sex, listen to "Underworld" and then somehow end up in england...well then your going to love the next movie on the list
Memorable Scene: The (infamous) forced de-tox sequence! Never before has withdrawal induced hullucinations appeared more low-budget or convincing.

2. The Rules of Attraction: This is another coming of age, cautionary tale, that is really more fun than it should be. Its pretty much a juxtaposed view of the lives of several college stereotypes. This is one of those types of movies that some will give deeper meaning than it deserves. Its really just a fun ride thru the wonderful college world we all wish we had experienced. A world that is at the same time a dark comedy, porn, action, coming of age, road film. Each of these students, are beautiful, young and free, they all have a great time, get laid, get high, go on massive eurotrips, and only one ends up dead, but she wasn't important anyway.
Memorable Scene: The uncomfortably erotic suicide scene. Yeah that sounds odd! Erotic and suicide in the same sentence? It really inst just because the poor girl is nude either! The whole scene seems to be bathed in this mildly goth, deeply erotic atmosphere. Many other people that have seen the film echo the same sentiment (both female and male) The common comment is "this scene is so sad, but there is also just something disturbingly sexy about it."

3. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within: Alot of people are really down on this movie. They say things like, "Its not really even related to final fantasy." or, "Its boring, and complicated (yeah like the Final Fantasy games werent complicated and boring at times) and finally "Its just a glorified cartoon for lil kids, im an adult!." So yeah what we really have is the clash of to cultural ideas of what a feature film should be. This movie was made with distinctly Japanese tastes to it. Examples are the dialog, scene direction, bizzare non western religious ideas, and the leftest sci fi storyline. Its not a bad movie by any stretch of the imagination. Its just that dimwitted fanboys turned everyone off before anyone could even enjoy it. Which is really a shame because Square had a brilliant and well executed vision! What you have here is a great sci-fi epic about a post alien apocalypse earth, and the poor bastards trying to figure out what the hell is going on. The conclusion is at once sad, and disturbing. All of this is wrapped in a shiny and amazing computer animated shell
Memorable Scene: Dr. Aki Ross' stroll thru a destroyed New York, that is eerily remeniscant of the day after 9/11

4. The Breed: This is prolly the most overtly goth movie I've ever seen. Because it is so goth, and so corny, i... ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/3875881/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/3875881/ Sat, 20 Nov 2004 02:54:58 PST
Today I coudn't be botherd with going to classes. I only had one, and it was horribly cloudy, foggy, and it was raining. So instead of going to class, I went to spend money. Ahh one of the most American of American traditions! The wanton spending of money for the mindless acuisition of personal posessions. I love it! I bought a new turkey roasting pan today... Im not sure if i even needed one but i figured since i have a 20% off coupon I might as well. I also bought a huge gothic cross for my wall. Which is going to be very odd considering the fact that room is mostly asianesque. I also bought another issue of my fav mange. "Deus Vitae (DV)" Then it was off to the mall to pick up a copy of "Killzone" for my PS2. My weekend plans are pretty much "Killzone" and doing perverse things to that ambiguous very special person I find myself mentioning in EVER entry! But what can i say!? She just ignites the phosphorus in the light tubes of my addled mind. AND NO it's not you Kelly! You have Adam!

WEll now its off to bed, more pics comming tomarrow! (^_^) ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/3861725/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/3861725/ Thu, 18 Nov 2004 00:21:56 PST
Now if you dont know who "Chingy" is then just stop reading now and click on my gallery or scraps or send me a message telling me Im a bitch or something.

But for those who know the horror that is "Chingy" then keep reading... Ok so it bothers me that Ali G, is trying to look like a sterotype, and he is trying to look humorous. But "Chingy" is taking himself seriously and trying to look crunk, and he actually looks funnier, and more sterotypical than Ali G. This hurts me because it shows the horrendous decline of hip hop. WTF went wrong!?

Well I am going to go try to calm myself down enough to get some sleep. I have to go food shopping in the morning, then i plan on spending all afternoon kissing the soft skin of a very special person... ]]> ~DrVekk http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/3846375/ http://DrVekk.deviantart.com/journal/3846375/ Tue, 16 Nov 2004 01:39:42 PST My guru once said, "rather than point out the faults of others, explore the reason behind the exitance of the faults." So why are photo artists anal? Well I think its because many people challenge the ligitimacy of photography as an art form. People assume its easy to just get a camera and push a button. Its more too it than that really. For me its mostly luck, and focus. But for some setting up a shoot can take hours if not days. Those are real artists, a real artist who is some one who takes an active role in creating beauty. I am not an artist, for i dont create, but rather i display, or present. Much like a DJ, DJs aren't artists, they are more abassadors of whatever it is they spin. So these are not pictures as objects of beauty or deisre, but rather they are representations of objects of beauty or desire. That is what photography is to me, preservation. ]]> ~DrVekk
