Darren Daz Cox, now in Pekin Illinois!
Daz Honey once again
I didn’t renew dazhoney.com a few months ago for various reasons and figured it would end up as a spam site as other domain names I had once owned ended up as. Surprisingly I found it was available today with no penalty whee, I know it’s not a ‘valuable domain name’ but there are several links to it out there, far more than to other sites that were bought up by spammers before. I’m guessing that as time as gone on the spammers are a lot more selective!
So anyway, as I did with gobzine.com earlier this year I reclaimed a url and will use it to get my art out to the world. It’s not an obsession as much as an art project to see how far the internet can promote an artist without having to pay an "official" art site where the art elite will judge you but rather let the public judge my art and influence the art galleries to want me! Well, it’s a fun project no matter how successful it is!
Daz Honey is the name of my avatar (character) in the digital world of SecondLife which isn’t a game but rather a big 3D chatroom where you can build and sell things. Here’s some of the artsy things associated with my adventures in the digital world.
This one was a castle I built within SecondLife (that’s my avatar as a girl walking through).
and finally for today, here’s a current snapshot of Daz Honey at the Om Festival, I love that place!
On a different topic, today I went into the Art Alliance gallery to pick up my painting from the last show and was surprised to see a new show up. According to the newsletters and website nothing was scheduled and the big arts organization down the road hadn’t mentioned it either.
The show is photography by Dominican orphans and Alice Pearce the vp of shareusa.org a tiny local non-profit charity group that is raising awareness and money for the kids. If you live in the NYC area it’s only an hour and a bit on the train from Penn station, you can walk to the gallery from the station. Local Monmouth county folks should stop in and say hello to the volunteers or stop by their website at least. Below is the youtube video from their site, it’s not fancy but it’s good to watch!
