Art, you say?
My friend Desireé (aka libragoddess04) is an amazing artist. You can view some of her work here. She's currently working on a piece using real people, while these people wake up in the hours between 2-5 am, and take a walk around their neighborhoods. While they walk they speak stream-of-conciousness thoughts. It's a beautiful project (you can view the transcripts/videos of people who have already participated by clicking on the link below).

A little birdie told me that to have your thoughts shared with her art class, you'll need to participate sometime in the next week. You can do it by phone! How easy is that?

Here's the information. I'm not putting it under a cut, because I think it's too awesome of a project to have people ignore.

Get cracking, kiddos! I'd love to see this thing go to other states. (And I know I have out-of-Florida LJ friends!)

**EDIT**
I did mine tonight! You can hear it by going here: http://www.desiree-dalessandro.com/sleepwalktalk.html and clicking on the graphic. After getting into the main site, hover over the words "Project Sleep Walk/Talk." You'll see links to the rest of the site. Click on "Call/Contact." After hearing Desireé talk, click the 'forward' button on the little media player until you hear "Hello, my name is Christen Buckler..." When you're done listening to THAT, click on the 'back' button, because I called back. :-)

It's fun. You should try it.
