We're a geek culture podcast and blog covering video games, music, food and more. We are the kinds of people who evangelize whatever we are into - it could be anything - but it's usually pretty geeky. We're casual, conversational, NSFW and hopefully interesting. We hope you enjoy it.

Art Auction! Obsessed

Today I have decided to part with one of my favorite paintings. This is a piece entitled "Obsessed" that I did as part of my degree back in 2005. It was a combination digital/analog piece, with two parts. The first part is the painting/collage, comprised of all my Game Boy Advance game boxes and manuals I had saved up over the years. I am a compulsive box-saver, and it was quite the sacrifice to cut them all up, I tell you what. The other part was an online component, where you could zoom in and mouse over the individual games and read a little history behind them. Not a history about the games, but of my experiences with the games. Naturally the only thing being auctioned is the huge 30" x 40" mixed media piece, seen here (click to zoom).

Bidding starts today at $50 with a flat $20 shipping (because I have no idea how much shipping is going to cost anyway). Proceeds go to the illustrious Weekly Geek bandwidth fund. Click here to bid!

You'd have to hold this while I have no money for the next few weeks wouldn't you.
