For my screen printing class with Charles Joyner at NCSU, we had to do 10 collages. This piece was originally on an 8×11 sheet of construction paper. It was then scanned, manipulated in photoshop, and printed large scale, 36×24 inches. After that it was screen printed on, and re-collaged with matte board and pieces of itself onto a piece of masonite.
It is probably one of my most historically charged, and finished pieces. I’m not a big fan of history.
This is a screenshot of the flash movie.. It’s a piece I am turning into an information system and animated sequence for my music site, Waysnmenes.com (parental discretion). My little monsters are a tad more vicious than the ones in Michael Jackson’s world. I have been waiting to publish it until every little thing is perfect and finished but the image is enough for now. The piece is ripe with ideas, sub-stories back stories and psychological ramifications that could go on and on for days. In my efforts to show what it is I do and am particularly enthralled with or enthused by, I am showing you this unmoving version of my mental world.
I actually know all these humanoid creatures! Can you find yourself, maybe your friend? You will know when this is published…

This is my box. It is a great box. I love my box. I break my box, and find myself in a bigger box.
09 – (MIDTERM) DUCKING AND DODGING from Menes Kedar on Vimeo.
In Multimedia Studio with Pat Fitzgerald [NCSU] and McArthur Freeman, I did this animation demonstrating squash and stretch, motion along a path, programmatic motion, and boning, in Maya.
The title is indicative of how I felt about my life at the time. I laugh only in retrospect – but this was turned in on time.

This is a piece I did for another Multimedia Studio years before I knew how to control a camera in Maya and when I thought leaving the far clipping plane alone was cool! I still like it and would love to make it actually go somewhere and populate it with objects!
