First Pre-Sold Show Recap

I spent weeks making 440 paper flowers out of 1800 sheets of tissue paper because I wanted this show to be visually amazing. The wonderful people at MakerBot let me take over their space, helped me build a stage, filmed the webcast, and even printed me out in 3D while I was playing!



Folding flowers.

Flowers get flounced by handy Australians.

Flounced!

The flower wall is assembled. 200 flowers in all.

The stage is built.

The flower wall is hoisted into place behind the stage.

New Music Video: Impossible Girl #3



On Vimeo


On Youtube





A short history of this music video:

This is the first video Jim Batt  and I ever shot together. Jim just happened to have an old bathtub in the woods of his family home and walked bucket after bucket of hot water out through the trees so that my mid-winter bath would be nice and warm. Impossible Girl #3 is not a song I think about often, I hardly ever listen to it and I never play it. It isn't that it's a bad song, I just don't need it anymore. I wrote it at a time when I needed it and then that time passed. I do think it's pretty and the video makes me happy. 



In other news: Yesterday I became a unicorn!
Molly Crabapple plays the virgin who tames me.






AND...

I have 19 tickets left for my first ever pre-sold show in NYC on July 21st. Get them here:   http://www.kimboekbinder.com/store/tickets

*The unicorn horn made for me by M.A.D. Hatter in Melbourne.


Love,

Kim


p.s. I finally got a new computer and it is making my life way better. I'll be able to record demos, do webcasts, edit videos, and so much more - all without needing to be constantly plugged in and crashing all my programs several times a day. Yay functionality!
