August's theme at Self-Portrait Challenge is enclosed or tight places and spaces.
I cracked up when I took that shot of my face and put it on a jack-in-the-music-box. It seemed to "go" with me and my personality quite well.
First, I am a joker. I love, love, love to make people laugh. That is the intention of a jack-in-the-music-box, is it not?
Second, I have a sadistic sense of humor. Everyone knows that kids either love or hate these things. They scare the crap out of many young children and might even evoke a jerk out of an adult when the crank is turned just enough to release "jack" from his confines. I think it is a hoot when the kids cry. Kinda like when they sob and scream while sitting on Santa's lap. Hehe. Plus, I hate clowns. I get major heebie jeebies when I see them.
Third, I am always surrounded by music. I would, indeed, find myself lost without it.
And fourth, the idea of being shoved down inside that square box and having the lid latched absolutely wigs me out.
See how well this picture represents me?!!!

Great idea! I love it. Well done!
Everytime I see a jack-in-the-box I'm reminded of the old Twilight Zone episode with Billy Mumy where he sent people into "the cornfield" and turned one guy into a living jack-in-the-box.
