So I am officially calling this my "sister" blog. My other blog, simply titled, adrianbobb.blogspot.com will act more as my professional concept art page, where this one, "The Demiurge," will act as my personal blog where I will post about all things that I am interested in...and thankfully there is a lot so I shouldn't get bored.
So its almost 2009 and as such, I'd like to end this decade with a great change. First? Location. I am currently planning my move with my long time friend Rory Geddes to Montreal to pursue more career oriented opportunities in concept design for film/television/videogames.
Second? Storybuilding. For years I have been working on a story that has been improbable to put together for far too many years. But now I have a focus...The moon. Hahaha alright, enough with dramatics...
Simply put, I am focusing on finding out as much as possible about the rocky inner-system planet named "Theia" that orbited between Mars and Earth. Theoretically (and I use this to imply probability not improbability), the collision between this planet and our own proto-earth was what led to the formation of the moon, as well as the stability necessary for life to develop and survive for 4 billion years. This is quite possibly the most beautiful story I have ever heard, and being the storyteller I am, I NEED to romanticize it. What was this planet before? Did it have life? Why did it have such a strange orbit? These are the questions I know for a fact will lead to even greater questions I think are necessary to ask.
I believe western culture is greatly deprived of origin stories in the form of myth. Fortunately I am geeky enough to receive great hope and joy from scientific journals/documentaries/professionals, etc. so I sort of have a drive to seek that sort of thing out...one thing I kinda wish that more people would have but oh wells. Diversity is the spice of life right?
And finally third? Well...perhaps there is no third...I mostly feel location will compensate for most of the change and character building I feel I need to go through before the decade's end. I feel Saskatchewan's been great for developing skills and building ties, but there is an unfortunate ceiling point in this province that starts becoming a tad claustrophobic for those out of University. Will I ever visit? Most likely...but Montreal seems so promising that I feel I might blend in pretty well.
Ok. That's all for tonight.
It's Xmas!
