We thoroughly studied the filmmaking components along with the psychology of the characters and the filmmakers in film school; rightfully so.
Apparently, everybody just went batshit (the opening scene with Sheen going nuts and punching the mirror, making his hands bleed was real. It wasn’t fake blood and he was actually pretty fucked up).
From what we’ve studied, I think it’s safe to say that they probably ended up making an epic because the people behind the camera delved into their darkness just as the characters in the movie did.

I still haven’t tried night diving. Bucket list?
I visited a friend, who was undergoing chemotherapy, at the time.
“WTF are you wearing?” was the first thing he said as I walked in the room.

Cancer: spreading.
Snooty attitude: intact.
Spirit > Cancer = 💯
Update: He’s well and cancer-free now.
He’s also still quite snappy and still insults the way I dress.
I wouldn’t have him any other way… prick.
Sucks to go out but it’s actually really pretty out.

… is a photographical concept by Oliver Pauk (Toronto, ON)
“The most significant way in which humans waste energy is in the form of heat. In North America, nearly half of the energy produced is released from our products, processes and buildings, directly into the atmosphere and the water system. Waste heat recovery is the process of harnessing this thermal energy and re-using it. I have chosen to photograph heating, ventilation and air conditioning units and to use the effect of thermal imagery in order to portray their huge potential for heat recovery.
Estimates state that in the U.S., waste heat recovery has the potential to satisfy forty percent of total energy requirements. Operating at this level would save the American economy roughly 150 billion dollars per year and would, simultaneously, decrease greenhouse gas emissions by twenty percent; the equivalent of taking every passenger vehicle off of the road.”

… is a visual artist based in Toronto, ON living in Aurora, ON
“Sara Shields was born in 1990 and currently practices art in the Toronto area. Sara’s works have been purchased by clients in Canada and the UK.
Sara graduated from the Fine Arts Studio program at Toronto’s Centennial College in 2010. While there, she started to develop her unique style of drawing, using paper and pastels – a style that continues to evolve today.
Sara’s obsession with exploring the transformation of the natural and real into the surreal and strange turns any simple expression or movement of the human form into something new, somewhere far from the “normal.” Each drawing originates in a nude reference, but morphs into mystery, presenting wild, highly energized abstract forms which are in alien contrast to the human world. Let their movement draw you in and sweep you away.”
