Yesterday was great. I spent the day building my own indoor studio in the room that was up until recently occupied by a giant breathing bottle of tequila, which sounds preposterous but I swear it is true. It took all day, and in the process I had to make a much bigger mess, but at the end of the day there was a huge, completely functional space. Initially the intention was to make the space and then make some art to post for today, but at 10:30 pm I realized it wasn’t going to happen, so I’m going to post this cool interview from Frank Stella instead.

Posted in Art, Food, Toni Tiller with tags Toni Tiller, youtube on December 22, 2010 by Toni TillerI’m kind of a Scrooge, I admit it, for whatever reason Christmas just inspires and odd mix of melancholy and rebelliousness for me. Every year I swear up and down that I am going to boycott the whole thing, stay home, and watch movies but the inevitable resignation to polite expectation always wins. This year it won in the form of baked goods.
Of course it wasn’t enough to do a bunch of cookies, that would just be way too easy right? Much better to go on the internet and cobble together a bunch of recipes to form a super elaborate layered brownie. Super brownies! I was feeling more festive already, almost cheerful even. Played a little music, danced around the kitchen, added all my layers, and was about to pop it in the fridge to firm up when the whole thing slid out of my hands…it reminded me a lot of this – skip to 2:08.
There I am, lying on the floor, clutching a mostly empty pan, with a chocolate peanut pile that briefly inspired the charming mental image of an elephant taking a dump in my kitchen. The saving grace was about half was still in the pan, though all of my carefully plotted layers were destroyed. It seemed a shame to waste all that beautiful Girhadelli chocolate so I hit the pantry, found a bag of chocolate chips, melted them down, threw in some crispy cereal as a binder, mixed it all up and formed little balls.
I was all super excited. I invented a new dessert! Tiny parades and confetti streamers passed though my head as I bragged about my culinary resourcefulness, only to be met with a wordless link Tweeted from our own JD Hastings.
Damn.

Walt Cassidy
Posted in Art, Toni Tiller, video with tags Art, style curator, Toni Tiller, walt cassidy, youtube on January 25, 2010 by Toni TillerWalt’s an old friend from back in the club days, and I have always looked up to him for his seemingly effortless style and creativity. I say seemingly because I know how much craft he puts into everything he does, there are no half measures with Mister Cassidy and I am not surprised in the slightest at the success he has had. We’ve come a long way from the days of wigs and cha cha heels. Here is a video from Style Curator where he details his process.

Posted in Art, video with tags Art, Toni Tiller, video, youtube on January 4, 2010 by Toni TillerI would love to just pop this little video on here for you all to see, but they do not allow embedding. It’s called “Otto vs. the Italian Futurists.” A remake of a scene from the lost Futurist omnibus film “Vita Futurista” (1916). Created for “Futurist Life Redux” (2009), a Performa Commission with SFMOMA and Portland Green Cultural Projects.

Friday Night Music Video
Posted in Toni Tiller, video with tags friday night music video, music, video, youtube on August 14, 2009 by Toni TillerThis is music only in the most limited sense, but it is also horrifying/entertaining so as far as I’m concerned it makes the cut.

You have to slice shapes and avoid balls and maybe some other stuff. As expected I’m not very good at it, the little balls keep smashing me, so I’m going to watch this video from the 1930′s to cheer myself up.
