Just Who Is Making This Badical Power Nonsense?
I hope my random shenanigans in animation form are able to entertain or inspire you…or at least elicit a slight “tee hee”. When I’m not working on my music project or going thrift store shopping for club outfits I like to make cartoons. So many ideas scribbled on napkins, notebooks, txt files, animatics…I need a whole team of Korean animators…alas though I am but only one Korean(err Korean/Irish)
So about me…I guess I’m one of those oddball dorks who should have his own vinyl/robot/dinosaur toy hipster stores in Portland or Austin making my own zines and mixtapes. But alas I am currently trapped in suburbia til I strike it rich with something. I also dig museums of all sorts
