Hey all, This will be brief because I've been hit with a little cold, which doesn't really surprise me because I have been pushing so hard for weeks. Today is get well quick day because I have to be bright and shiny tomorrow for my interview on KBOO. Tune in to 90.7 FM at 10:30AM or click here to stream it live on the internet. I also got a nice email from Richard Schemmerer who took pictures at the opening for Natural Selection last week and posted them on his blog Portland PDX Art. Thanks Richard!

Conversation with TJ Norris
Where do you plug in for inspiration or do you feel you are an outlet of a creative force that is using you?
Mostly I simply walk through the city for inspiration. I'm an addictive people watcher. Commuting on public transportation is fantastically weird. I am part of the mix of so many skins and quirks as much as the next rider. My main plug-in has always been music, the ambience of empty space to the sounds I'm plugged into. It's something I don't create myself, but something translated through my work in ways I hope others can understand in terms of tones, composition, harmony...ya know. I'm rarely disconnected from my portable player. Black light, white noise.....
What sparks you, charges you up besides art?
