no no its fine
sorry i forgot
but i design cards with my ideas

mai ueda:

cause i need somebody with good taste who can get the idea

nikola tosic:

i do not work with your ideas

mai ueda:

sja;; i show u my idea?

nikola tosic:

nope

mai ueda:

ok

nikola tosic:

i can do a business card for you if u trust me 100% to do what i want
otherwise u can make it yourself in any software, you do not need me

mai ueda:

i have very good idea thogh

nikola tosic:

thats the point
u dont need me than

mai ueda:

i dont have any software at the moment
i have no computer
i am at internet cafe
and is urgent

nikola tosic:

how urgent

mai ueda:

in 2 or 2 days
1 or 2

nikola tosic:

and whats your idea?

mai ueda:

nikola tosic:

u want your business card to be like a gold buion

mai ueda:

yea!

nikola tosic:

sorry can not do that

mai ueda:

u like?
why?

nikola tosic:

if u check my work u will see i never work with such image heavy stuff

mai ueda:

true

nikola tosic:

i do not know how ot edit images like that, it would take me like few days of non stop work to figure it out for it to be done properly

mai ueda:

is more rafael u think?

nikola tosic:

u need someone skilled with photoshop, someone from advertising
rafael does not do this stuff either
if u want the idea to work it has to be realistic

mai ueda:

or it can be redesigned in black and gold

nikola tosic:

rafael does vector stuff well, not image manipulation

mai ueda:

it can be cartoony i think

nikola tosic:

than rafael can do it

mai ueda:

inspired by gold bar

nikola tosic:

what i mostly do is use text and content as my strength
not visuals

mai ueda:

or shall it be realistic?

nikola tosic:

if u want this to be really as a gold buion u need one of those guys from advertising image editing and manipulation
or 3d
probably an expert with hotoshop
i dont know what ur idea is
u can do a gold color with basic text and no one will get that its gold buion
but it will be gold etc

mai ueda:

true

nikola tosic:

but for it to look like gold it needs to be very good photoshop work and good print
basically a very expensive business cards
heavy paper, super quality print

mai ueda:

yea
true

nikola tosic:

i do not do this, even if i had the will and time i do not have the skills

mai ueda:

i see

nikola tosic:

i do not think anyone in neen does this kind of things

mai ueda:

is cheap and quick here to do cards

nikola tosic:

not like this
if u want it done right

mai ueda:

yea
i tried to look for photoshopper here but did not find

nikola tosic:

what would be cool is to actually do a gold buion with you rname and take a photo of it
that would be cool

mai ueda:

i have a firend i may ask her
is it better?

nikola tosic:

i u can afford it it is better, u would need few thousand dollars to buy the gold though :)
sorry its spelled gold bullion

mai ueda:

yea

nikola tosic:

u need 20561 euros to get a kilogram of gold
that would be a cool business card
to buy gold, carve it in your own style (rough) and than take a photo of it

mai ueda:

u checked?
it can be cool actually

nikola tosic:

and you just give polaroid photos of it
well i would not do business cards, i would do polaroids

mai ueda:

cool

nikola tosic:

u need to buy some gold, make it into a plate, carve your contacts and website and take a polaroid
take some 100 polaroids
and you give polaroids around

mai ueda:

good idea

nikola tosic:

if u do that than i have the credits for your business card idea

mai ueda:

u are cool

nikola tosic:

because polaroids can not be copied so its like an original

mai ueda:

true

nikola tosic:

u can try to get a sponsor – someone in a gold shop
i think u might need very little gold, maybe a kg

mai ueda:

maybe…

nikola tosic:

and u can resell it after its done, or u keep it
and sell it as art

mai ueda:

yea
maybe sell as art

nikola tosic:

yeah
ok

mai ueda:

how much is 1 kiro?

nikola tosic:

one kilo?

mai ueda:

yea

nikola tosic:

1000 grams – 2050 euros i think
like 3000 usd

mai ueda:

waa kind of a lot but maybe it worth

nikola tosic:

thats 24 karat gold
can i publish this chat on my blog, i like it

mai ueda:

yea
nice
yea do it

nikola tosic:

cool
i found your music on seeqpod.com

mai ueda:

what is it?

nikola tosic:

website music player
u play music online
no need to carry musyc

mai ueda:

cool send me link by mail

nikola tosic:

send me a nice photo of you, naked preferably
for the chat

mai ueda:

raf had onother idea
to buy a small gold
that looks like 1kg
so i take macro photo of it
that i can afford tmrw

nikola tosic:

thtas what i said as well – to buy smaller
but also this is cheating

mai ueda:

ah cool
yea
is just vertual

nikola tosic:

than its not a kilo of gold but fake kilo of gold

mai ueda:

cool
yea
thats cute

nikola tosic:

gold is boring anyway

mai ueda:

fake kilo of gold
yea
i can try to buy fake kilo of gold in bangkok

nikola tosic:

do you have a naked photo?

mai ueda:

no
why?
so inspireing to talk with neen boys
different level of conversation
i am happy i came on skype now
inspiration is so important to be motivated in life

nikola tosic:

i wanted to have it for the skype chat, naked females attract attention always so any chance i have to use a photo of a naked female i use it, do you have any other photo of you which you would like me to use to illustrate the chat

mai ueda:

no
find from internet

nate hitchcock sent me some photos from the interstitial festival few of us neen people took part in on 29th february. check them out here.

i woke up for that show at 3:45am so i could be online and ready to do my skype performance at 4:00am. however my testacle was in huge pain and my adsl did not work. i did not want to drink coffee cause it would wake me up too much. i wore rafael‘s tagbanger t-shirt – the finger one – but it did not show on the video. my mistake not to organize the webcam a bit better.

i connected over my girlfriend’s mobile phone card (mine was zeroed) and i read some poetry. i heard people laughing and clapping but with a pause. first they would get confused by poems and than react. on one side i wish i was there to be amongst the people (i enjoy attention so very much) but than i am happy that i had even a little bit of that experience through skype.

i am very interested in poetry readings over skype.

one of my dreams is to get a poetry reading tour – just to travel from a town to town and do poetry readings for few weeks. i wish that would happen at some point in my life. it seems like a super cool way to spend some time.

poetry readings should in general attract people who like my work and these people are always fun to be around. other kind of people that show up are the ones who expect something else and get super pissed by me. these kind of people i also meet at shows and lectures and it is also fun to be around them because they are stimulating. i just do not like when they are passive aggressive, like when they just turn their backs on me and leave or something like that. but that is rare and not fun.

anyway interstitial festival seemed like a cool place i would enjoy.

thanks to sarah weis for putting the show up, mai ueda for suggesting me (someone always has to suggest you, that’s the main thing) and nate hitchcock (great last name: to hitch a cock) for sending me the photos. i also want to thank my parents for supporting me and my psychology teacher in high school for staying after school to organize the extra psychology lessons which i requested and she was forced by law to do with me (instead of going home to chill out). thank you all the fans and everybody else who is online. thanks to the people in estonia for making skype.

thank you thank you thank you…
