Jori Zombified

Back in 2009 an artist/blogger friend launched a blog dedicated for anything about zombies.  You can check out the site here.  What’s exciting about the blog is that it features a section where he zombifies friends and colleagues by redrawing them from reference photo and transforming them to legions of the undead.  And yes, I’m one of the candidates. But since he is also busy of a lot of things, it took a while before my zombified photo came out.  Fast forward to today, I just stumbled upon the artwork while googling my name and here is the artwork.

Photo on the left is a photo taken by Niccolo Cosme for Project Headshot Clinic.  I like how Jonas and Neil transform my photo in to a zombie.  It is just funny that even in zombified form, those extra pounds will never go.  I guess I’m cursed to have them for eternity, LOL.

Final composition

Original Photo: Niccolo Cosme

In brightest day, in blackest night, No evil shall escape my sight Let those who worship evil’s might, Beware my power… Green Lantern’s light.

In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil’s might,
Beware my power… Green Lantern’s light.

An idea is indeed the most resilient parasite. Inception theories continues to grow as people formulate their own explanations regarding unexplained events on the film. With us busy on looking for answers, we didn’t notice that Nolan just performed an Inception planting an idea to our minds. Be careful . If you dig deeper you may end up on your own limbo. — Jori

There’s only NOW
There’s only HERE
Give in to LOVE

Tumbling on Tumblr

It is been almost years since the last time I write blogs about my everyday life.  Well, other than the events I attend and movies that I watch, I can’t hardly recall the last time I talked about my everyday travel, my daily money dilemma, my chance encounters with different kinds of people etc.  Nakakamiss din yung minsan pag may maganda  o pangit na nangyari sa ‘yo at gusto mong ikwento ito at ibahagi sa maraming tao bilang mga maiikling kwento na naglalahad ng isang senaryo na tila baga galing sa isang pelikula.

I want to go back writing my story.  I want to write them as creative as possible.  Halos iwan ko na nga pagdradrawing, pati pagkanta at pagpeperform sa stage.  Yun pa bang pagsusulat ng mga kwento, iiwanan ko pa ba?  I’m still an artist.  If I want to live with that title, I need to go back and write.

This is where will I start.

Its almost 11:08 in the morning.  Haven’t got a decent sleep due to a very devastating office dilemma.  I’ll talk about that later.
