| Project Cranium SKULLpture by Baron Dixon 04:37Ever since I was a kid I have always had a fascination with bones. I don't know what it is. Probably because I find them strangely beautiful, much like seashells. Seashells and Bones are the hard evidence more...that some organism once shared space with them. Human skeletons are often scary looking, and yet, wrapped around most human skeletons are some fabulously beautiful people. I like that aesthetic contrast. I'm always looking for that duality, the beautiful within the horrific. It makes me stop and take a longer look and try to admire the hidden beauty of something or someone ugly.
As a kid I loved natural history museums (Art museums became a much later love affair) and seeing the reconstructed dinosaur skeletons,and thinking about tht guys who first found them, dug them up, and reassembled them without an instruction manual. My grandparents lived out in the country and I loved finding old cow skulls and such out in the field.I'd pretend they were dinosaurs and that maybe, just maybe, a few live ones might still be around. For me, a box of old bones was a treasure chest!
In the summer before I entered College the movie "Alien" came out. The film features a scene where astronauts stumble across a derelict alien shipwreck on an uncharted planet, and find the very realistic bones of a dead alien inside, with evidence of some kind of internally generated trauma that killed it. That rekindled my fascination with bones, and I started creating my own collection of "Alien skulls"out of kiln-fired stoneware clay, which I would then paint to look like real dessicated bone. I would proudly display them as knick-knacks on my shelves, as ersatz "Specimens" from my travels to other worlds (or some perversely mutated corner of THIS world, since there was an oddly human feel to all of them). Sometimes I would build a display stand for a skull that lookedlike part of the rest of the creature it belonnged to.
I turned a very elaborate one in as my final project in my second semester of Sculpture in college. Its stand actually possessed something of a ribcage,although I took artistic liberties with it to make it more interesting and asymmetrical (That's the tall center piece in the photo in my photos section here!). I was rather amused by the reactions of people who were unfamiliar with me and my work. A biology student criticized the piece for not having the correct rib-count. At first I was offended until I learned that she thought the damn thing was REAL! A similar comment came from one of my fellow students who worked in a different section of the sculpture labs:"Who th' hell brought these old bones in here?" Needless to say I was proud of my inadvertent deception of my viewers. Got an "A" , too. Bonus!
I still make skulls and skeletons now and then. Sometimes I like to put comical fish-bones in my Cat paintings. I've also made 3-D paintings of imaginary prehistoric fish skeleton specimens and flying beasts. I don't do it as often as i used to, but I have a lot of fun just letting my imagination run wild in different media whenever I get my Jones to make Bones!
Just thought I'd share one of the many strange things about me since I ran across this video of my original skull collection the other day. The sound collage in the audio track is all mine. less Tags: baron dixon sculpture ceramic bones skulls alien giger monster Category: Science & Technology Views: 698 Comments: 17 Added: Feb 11, 07 By: BaronDixon  | |

| Wholesum Entertainment Production Logo 00:20An animated logo tag I designed that will appear at the front or the end of the "Dr. Trimrose" movie. I also composed the "Holiday for Strings"-style jingle that you hear, using more...audio samples of real violinists, cellists and bassist playing the entire spectrum of individual notes, and a harpist doing some glissandos, and spliced them all together using Audacity. A pain in the ass, yes, but it really gives the authenticity to the 1950's sound that a synthesizr just can't quite muster. less Tags: barondixon animation logo design muzak Category: Arts & Animation Views: 115 Comments: 5 Added: Feb 20, 09 By: BaronDixon  | |

| Baron Explains It All quotAmerican Alienquot ) 04:02The original title to "American Alien" was "The Disappearance of Baron Dixon". I made this little DVD extra before Jeff Cochran decided to change the title to "Am. Alien", more...so you'll see and hear references to "Disappearance" throughout my rambling narration. The underscore is excerpts from the actual soundtrack score from the movie, by Ryan Ferguson.
This is a sort of Super-8 "Demo reel" of my scratch on film technique that I've done since I was a teenager and became the inspiration for the "Special effects" in the Super-8 versions of "Am. Alien". Included here are a couple of clips that were made for the movie, but didn't make it in there, but you can see me working on them.
Infotainment, eh?
Included here are excerpted clips from "Kinky Clay" and "No-CAN-Do!", and home-movie footage as far back as 1972, and going up through 1979!

| Backyard Backlot Outdoor Chroma Key Wall Test No1 01:56Initial test of my new backyard greenscreen that I have erected with the generous help of my best friend and fellow filmmaker, Larry Lo Presti. I invite you all to enjoy the evolution of this new project more...and learn right along with me what works and whatdoesn't (Except it's all been pretty much workin'!)
I couldn't quite participate in the official "LiveVideo Offensive", but this is my attempt at it, although I have exceeded the 10-day time limit, but I should at least have ten videos about this project uploaded at some point.
By the way, I wanna see YOUR chroma key studios, too, if you got 'em!
