>>What are you working on?

Currently, I am working on Mytheotypes. A series of photographs (lenticular & 3D) animations/ that plays between cultural stereotypes into mythological creatures. http://www.sonicribbon.com/sonicribbon/mytheotypes/

I am trying out this new artist/producer platform to support this work. If you would like to co-produce this work

>>What are you excited by?

Collaborating with artists - hit me up!j @sonicribbon.com

Learning to be a better teacher - biggest reward so far: being the recipient of an entire kindergarten class hug followed by a running jump hug from one kindergartener.

Beats that make me dance - send me some!

>>What do you want to brag to us about?

>>What did you try, and in the spirit of Red, fail at utterly and completely?

To be normal. Never ever works.

How do you find your degree relates to what you're working on now?

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
