odessa begay: museum of modern tweets


john mayer is reinterpreted as a new age leader, floating through space and burning calendars in response to his 'deep'
and 'spiritual' tweet': christmas on december 25 is merely a suggestion. it can come anytime between the 25 and 31. and it's happening now.

'museum of modern tweets' hosted by brooklyn born freelance photo-editor odessa begay
is a website that converts the latest celebrity tweets into a charming illustration.
like many of us, begay watched the endless array of news regarding the infidelity of tiger woods
and his publicly released text messages to his various mistresses. begay began using these
text messages as inspiration for her illustrations. after releasing them on the web, it soon became
the starting point for 'museum of modern tweets'. currently, one celebrity tweet with illustration
is added each week. her archive of illustrated tweeters include such familiar names as john mayer,
nick jonas and martha stewart.


the bowl of freshly grated reggiano parmesan cheese - we boiled the pasta in salted water, put it on a giant platt

the absurdity of celebrity tweets is emphasized as begay purposely includes all typos,
missing punctuation and strange character abbreviations as captions for her illustrations.


nick jonas tweets: such an exciting day. going to bed now. goodnight.


lindsay lohan tweets: for their not only complete, but substanisan ***friends*********


CNN news anchor, anderson cooper tweets: sexual healing: one-way only
