:lovebird: :lovebird: WELCOME TO THE TRAVELING CCIRCUS! :lovebird: :lovebird:

The CCircus is a thread for all of you all creative genius types to share whatever you've been working on through this Absolute Freakshow Shitstorm of the past few years. Much like the Traveling Kitty 6er thread, it will wind its way through the other forums gathering followers and adherents celebrating the finest side of Goonery.

I'm not going to be a prick about genre or medium. Writing, music, gaming, interpretive dance, cooking, whatever. If the other subforums want to have genre specific threads that's great, bless them. More the merrier. Slap your whole portfolio up in here. Get your social links, your comission rates, show us what you do. Promoting yourself is the worst! So let us help you do that! What you do is cool and you deserve recognition.

The one consideration asked is that any NWS links be clearly marked as such. :hfive: ok that's all from me, hat tip to Sebmojo for giving this the greenlight. Hit us with your best shot!

Ok, let me start. I just published a micro fic in Pif Magazine, "Exactly 499 Words About Warblers." https://www.pifmagazine.com/2020/11/exactly-499-words-about-warblers/ It's exactly what the title says. I wanted to experiment writing something short, but which conveyed a full idea. I also wanted to try writing something literary, so I made it about birds and death. With literary fiction, that's basically cheating. I know my work is... Controversial, but if you haven't liked anything I've made so far there's a chance you will like this.

I forgot to mention, this piece I wrote for Deadspin about my job as a baseball clown got me listed as Notable in this years' Best American Sportswriting anthology.

Oh wow how did I forget to mention the podcast myself and my cohost have been working very hard on!

FeatureBang! The podcast where two amateur writers review just the plots of adult films.

if you haven't seen it yet, "Sex and Zen" features a lesbian scene where they use a flute as a double ended dildo, and the Worst Caligraphy you can possibly imagine. a dude gets his dick chopped off and replaced with a horses' dick. it is Absurd.

I'm amazed with the quality of all of your miniatures. Going to listen to all of this new music with my baby, who has recently discovered an obsession with "the radio."

Sanford those dice rock and those notes are precious.

Okay it's April 1 so I can finally drop my big non-musical project that I've been working on. It is essentially a massive scientific shitpost. Some colleagues and I have just published a paper on the effects of climate change on an Australian endemic Pokémon. The paper comes out later today in Methods in Ecology and Evolution, and I'll post a link when it does. For now here's the press release:

https://www.oist.jp/news-center/press-releases/unique-macro-vertebrate-risk-blood-sport-and-climate-change



Basically we use data on kangaskhan from Pokémon Go to demonstrate new methods for estimating bias in how we predict the effects of climate change on threatened and endangered species. It's actually a really serious and possibly quite valuable new tool for conservation planning, and I hope it gets super widely adopted in the field so that a bunch of my colleagues have to cite a paper about Pokémon.

And of course five minutes after I post this, the article finally posts online.

https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/2041-210X.13591

Hey, this is seriously awesome. I saw this blow up on twitter back when it first dropped and it's deeply satisfying to know that a goon was involved.

I made most of the discord icons in Aseprite, which I had never used before, and I sort of fell in love with pixel art- something I had never made before. that got me interested in GBstudio so I started working on my own gameboy game, inspired by Shadowgate, but a zombie survival point-and-click game instead of a fantasy thing:



Will I ever finish it? Will I ever start that webcomic I had an idea for a year ago? Probably not! But I am learning new things!

These are all pretty small, hopefully this isn't image-overload.

yoooooooo check out World of Horror and start making mods! This is gloriously creepy.

I'm a filmmaker, and will be shooting my second feature film this August!

It'll be at the location (and some of the same crew) where I shot this short film:

It'll be very different tonally than that one though - think Night of the Living Dead meets THE THING.

Mod edit- fundraising link sorry man, even if it looks cool

And hey, why not a trailer for my first feature? (it was made for zero dollars on weekends with friends. I just wanted to prove to myself that I could finish one):

hey mods i think this thread should allow fundraising links. especially for someone with an established track record! totally unrelated but if anyone likes movies where night of the living dead meets the thing, okay here's the link: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/regicide-horror-movie#/

that headstone is incredible.

I'm super pleased to announce that a trio of boss goons helped me record a table read of a theatrical script i wrote: https://kiwi6.com/artists/PhizKalifa/the-nostromo-rule thanks to fleta, teenwitch, and boldfrankensteinmir! if you like sci-fi or comedy you'll like this. it's part of a longer serial work designed to be performed serially over zoom.

I wrote a play: https://newplayexchange.org/plays/1367789/spaceship-angelique-zoom-serial It's a sci-fi comedy that started off as an Aliens spoof called "The Nostromo Rule" specifically about the dangers of abandoned spaceships with faint signs of life. I'm wrapping up the next two episodes, ideally I'll find an established group of remote performers looking for a new webserial to produce.
If that sounds familiar, it's because Fleta, Teen Witch, and BFM helped me record a sample read of the first act: https://kiwi6.com/artists/PhizKalifa/the-nostromo-rule
