I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Montana, Dinosaurs and Update

by ~Red-Dilopho, Jul 7, 2009, 6:56:50 PM
Journals / Personal

Hi to everyone who visits this page! I can't believe it's been almost a year since I last updated this journal!

Anyways, there have been some things going on that have kept me from putting a whole lot of stuff up here on DA...I just saw that my last post is pretty old. But I'm still alive! (at least I am as I'm typing this hahaha) in case anyone was wondering about it...which I honestly doubt, lol.

I just came back from an awesome trip to Montana. I went on a dinosaur expedition to dig up fossils alongside paleontologist Paul Sereno!!! (for those of you who don't know him, he is one of today's top paleontologists, and a very inspiring person too...he has been all around the world in adventures hunting for dinosaurs).

It was kind of surreal, because I have admired Paul Sereno since I was in grade school (I read about him in magazines back when the dino-mania that came with Jurassic Park spread all over the world), and there I was just last week, discussing about dinosaurs over lunch with him and the other expedition members, digging up fossils and preparing them to be sent to the University of Chicago...it was amazing, and a dream come true, that's for sure!

I came back with recharged batteries so to speak, and I'm working on my new sculpture (I just posted the design I drew for it today), and I'll get back to my 3D Dilophosaurus soon too, and a 3D environment for it that is half-built already.

Anyways! Thanks for visiting my page, and for reading this journal! I hope you enjoy the dinosaur stuff (and soon fantasy stuff as well) on this page.

-Juan

I am planning on becoming a paleontologist one day. I'm a freshman in college, and a girl who has been interested in dinosaurs her whole life. I was just wondering what your experience has been like; what you would recommend someone in my position. I would be great to hear from someone who is doing exactly what I want to be doing for my whole life!

Is jealous, but awesome!!

~DinosaurianDude Jul 16, 2009 Hobbyist General Artist

Dude... like, dude...

~SilverSkye Jul 11, 2009

OMG JUAN!!!!!! THAT IS AMAZING!!!

I can't believe you got to meet - and not only MEET - but work with and EAT LUNCH WITH one of your idols!! (I was wondering about what you were talking about in your deviations!) I am so so so happy for you!! How did you arrange that trip????

Yeah, we all need a recharge every once and a while (some more than others!

) I will say it's great to see Juan art in my inbox again! BEST OF LUCK with your stuff!!!!!

p.s. Hopefully you should be recieving a package soon!! I sent it a couple weeks ago... :shakefish:

CURSE YOU CANADIAN POSTAL SYSTEM!!

~Red-Dilopho Jul 12, 2009 Filmographer

Ahhh!!!! yes, I received a package on the mail!!! I wanted to wait to write you a good ol' a snail mail to thank you for it! Arghh!! I'm sorry I should have said thanks before that

Thank you soooooooo much!!! I love the tie, I'm definitely going to wear it next time I have to wear a suite

!! and thanks for the elephant poo postcard, it's awesome! hahaha, I can't believe can make paper out of it

.

You should be receiving a letter soon too!

~SilverSkye Jul 26, 2009

OMG Juan, don't worry about it

I've just had pretty good luck with Canadian post and I am waiting for it to fail me at SOME point

I am so so so glad you like the tie! I have had that idea for a while, but it's not so easy to find dino ties! I mean, WHAT is wrong with the world??

Seriously, don't worry about it! I'm not that type of person!

=BAC-of-all-trades Jul 8, 2009 Professional General Artist

WOW AWESOME!!!!!

I’m so jealous right now, you got to hang out with Paul. Way too cool for words. Man I want to do that! I collect fossils around here, but there's nothing but coral and trilobites from the Devonian.

~TenguMT Jul 8, 2009

Awesome, i always wanted to be a paleontologist but kind of gave up on it, and now its too late, but I'm glad to hear your dreams came true

~Red-Dilopho Jul 9, 2009 Filmographer

Thanks! But hey, it's never too late to be a paleontologist, or to join a dinosaur fossil hunting expedition! (you don't need to be a paleontologist for that).

~puggdogg Jul 8, 2009 Professional Digital Artist

Actually I remember thinking a little while back that I hadn't seen any new dinosaur pics for quite a while.
