Thank you so much for supporting my creative whims throughout the years. Can you believe it's been almost a decade?!
Can I just clarify that I actually don't want to eat hair? But I did apparently want to build this pasta machine.

Obviously took a while for me to put finish this video, as you can tell by my bangs being cut and then uncut, and my workshop being painted then unpainted! You can't rush art. You also can't rush a snail, and I am happily living my life as one.
A bunch of people helped out with everything from dog training to technical advice, so extra thanks to Brent Piercy, Olivia Evans, Kathryn Zealand, Jacquelyn Marker, Aaron Teixeira and Michael Lazaris!

So many people helped make the bubble wrap music box happen! Here’s a list of build doulas who helped bring it to life:
Stu McConnel did a lot of the engineering and has a helluva brain. Please don’t try to hire him because he now works full-time (!) with me.
AJ Lodge helped film the music video and wrote the song for its debut! instagram.com/aj.lodge
Amanda Lodge did the story boarding and assisted on the shoot! She does character design and murals and you should hire her: instagram.com/amandajanelodge
Sami Go is a machinist who helped install the rotary kit! And she’s also taught me pretty much everything I know about CNCelia. You can follow her here: instagram.com/gosamilee
Victor Broadley lended me his fancy tapping arm and saved me ~so much time~. He makes a bunch of movie props and has a cute dog: instagram.com/veektohr
Jorvon Moss lended me his 3D printer when I was in a pinch! He also makes hella cool robotics projects if you need inspo: instagram.com/odd_jayy
