Posting a photo from the session for Mobius Trip and Hadron Kaleido which is officially a year old! It was on May 31, 2011 that my first solo record was released by What Pumpkin along with Homestuck Vol. 7 and since then life has gone much, much crazier. It was a fantastic birthday present to myself (my birthday being June 1) so hooray for that!

I will leave you to meditate on a year of MT&HK with this remix of “Chain of Prospit” by Astro Kid. Thanks to one and all for the enduring response to the record - the fan fiction, fan art, fan music, even fanimations. You have all made my year.

The next convention on my to-do list is A-Kon in Dallas! I’ll be up there for the Saturday meetup at 2:30 pm at the park next door to the Sheraton to play some guitar for the enormous crowd of Homestuck cosplayers that will be attending. RSVP to the Facebook event and I’ll see you there my Metroplex comrades!

Yes, the Astro Kid you know and love has entered his very own remix of Usher’s “Climax” into a contest hosted by Indaba Music, and he needs your vote to win! Listen to the mix and vote by clicking this link. He’s pretty high up in the leader board, but he needs your help to get in the top 10 if not the grand prize slot by May 28. When we vote for him, we all win. When we don’t vote for him, he unleashes the snakes. The choice is yours - vote now!

Houston fans, there will be a live Bowman show this weekend in Houston at Comicpalooza! We’ll be playing for PJ!stuck, a very chill Homestuck meetup that will be held in one of the panel rooms at the George R Brown convention center on Saturday, May 26 at 9 pm.

If you’re on your way to the convention, RSVP to the Facebook event - the room will be announced shortly.
