Why is that Bologna?
A year ago precisely I had started this channel out of creative frustration. I had not been making things like I had used to and that inaction eventually boiled over into verbal expression. I literally said "That's Bologna" on a call with a close friend, and they suggested I could make videos saying that. The idea was simple, arrive at the predictable punchline in the least predictable way. The execution was hard. I started posting three original shorts a day, and maintaned that pace for the first 4-5 months, eventually slowing down to about 1 to 2 a day now. Despite the sheer volume of videos I have made since then, the challenege to reinvent the joke and do so without repition has remained true.
I haven't just been making bologna jokes either. I started live streaming halfway through the year, and now stream 5 times a week. I don't make bologna jokes on stream, i do something entirely different. I craft cardboard contraptions without measurement or visual reference as both a challenge to myself and a metaphorical finger to the field of engineering. I have made: A crossbow, two bows, a trebuchet, a catapult, multiple launchers, armor, helmets, and more (they all function).
I have also formed a community of like minded bolognites who support eachother through positivity and authenticty.
