on youtube even more

i've been so busy, my head is about to explode. firstly, i was accepted to the vancouver stomp, which i mentioned earlier. thanks to the city of austin, half of the expenses accrued visiting vancouver will be paid-for.

secondly, i started meeting and working on the artspark festival. when we interviewed, they all told us it would be hectic and crazy, but even then, i think i underestimated! gotta work work work!

thirdly, i'm in a performance art piece next week about the death penalty. i'm still trying to rake together all the details, but it will involve going around austin in a van and conducting various "happenings." yeah. i'll post more as it comes.

and then i've been editing some video y'all. here are two videos that have existed on the internets prior to now, but i've re-uploaded them to youtube. i still have about five more of these babies, so keep on the lookout. if you want, you can subscribe to my channel. it *should* alert you when i upload new stuff.

on youtube part deux

this is the monologue, "karl." he's a crowd pleaser. i based his character on research i conducted on representations of asian american men in gay porn. one of my friends, who happens to be a fag prof says he has a crush on karl. do you?

on youtube

at the behest of my p.r. person (her name is felice, isn't that auspicious!), i am in the process of putting my solo show up on youtube. it's taking a while (sometimes it takes over an hour just to change video formats!), but here is one of the clips. i will post them here as i upload them.

my solo show is called "of chicks, dicks, and chinks." i wrote and performed it as part of my graduate work in radio-tv-film. it's about masculinity, race, asians and asian americans, and queerness. enjoy.




this monologue is called "the doctor." i based him off my research of masculinity and franz fanon.

you can find out more on the show or see nice photo stills of the show on my website here.
