Totally the sh!t

[jesse_the_k]

In an earlier life, I was an ASL interpreter. Hardest, most challenging work I've ever attempted. Even if my flesh is no longer willing, the thrill is still there at the power and beauty of ASL and its Deaf community. In that community, interpreters are mostly on the edges. The interpreter bStorm, at work/play in YouTube link below, is in another dimension altogether.

Not only is bStorm a kick-ass artistic interpreter, but he did the makeup too. His site is full of amazing body painting.

Oh, wow. I love this. I couldn't look away from it. I know so little about Marilyn Manson's music, but every time I've heard one of his songs I've really liked it. Say what you want about him, he's an Artist with a capital A. So is BStorm.

I can sign the tiniest little bit, and I know the alphabet. I really would love to learn ASL fluently.

I know so little about Marilyn Manson's music, ...

Neither do I, but this video makes me like this song. Wow.

Also, that's what I call interpretation! Full body 'n' everything.

My excuse is bStorm + Manson permanently addled my brain.
