M.I.S.S. CREW BLOG
So I started a "column" on the M.I.S.S. Crew site called "Art HERstory" (geeky, I know). It'll be running every Tuesday. Yesterday, being the first day.
Read the first entry HERE!
Let me know what you think!

COOL VIDEOS
Found this little animated title sequence to be amusing: Trekat
HP comes back again with another heavy hitting creative, this time it's Michel Gondry.

MUSEUM OF FORGOTTEN ART SUPPLIES
The first class we take in design school is a materials, tools & comping techniques class. They introduce us to the basic tools and tricks of the trade. It's only been 3 years since I took that class but some of those art supplies are about ready to enter the Museum of Forgotten Art Supplies.

M.I.S.S. CREW BLOG
Apart from working on final projects these last couple of weeks, I was also working with Gabriella (Mama Clothing) & Liz (The Goods!) on redesigning the M.I.S.S. Crew blog (which I also blog on) layout and a couple of other pages. Gabriella & Liz did an amazing job putting the finishing touches on it (the main page and special features pages).
Check it:
M.I.S.S. CREW is grown and sexy and we're excited to announce the re-launch of MISSCREW.COM!! Big Thanks to Amanda Lopez for her beautiful photography on our home page.

SONS OF MILES (FINAL)
My 9th semester at the Academy of Art is over. 9th SEMESTER! I've been going there every Summer, Fall & Spring since 2004. I thought about taking this Summer off (especially since I'm not getting any financial aid this Summer...grrr) but I'm so close! If all keeps going well, I'll be graduating next Spring.
Anyway, My Type 3 book, "Sons of Miles" is done. See it above. Better pictures to come. I'll be making prints from the art work in it, if anyone is interested.

AMY WINEHOUSE SHOW REVIEW
I've been horribly busy lately so I apologize for the lack of updates (Does anyone even check this anymore?!). The next two weeks are going to be scary stressful so any words of encouragement will be much appreciated :)
Last Thursday, I "snuck" out to Popscene (here is SF) to see Amy Winehouse (aka The Sad-"Snowboarder"-witha-Killer-Voice) open for Klaxons. I was on the guest list as a "writer" for Soundslam.com (Thanks again, Nick!) so I went alone (I had never been to a show alone!). I was a little nervous about doing a show write-up because, well, I'm not a writer! Bekka (aka Copy Writer Extraordinaire) was kind enough to edit my piece...Thanks again, B!
So here it is...along with a video from the show: Amy Winehouse Concert Review
Enjoy!
(PS...Feedback would be awesome! Thanks!)

ASHES AND SNOW
Beautiful...beyond words...
“In exploring the shared language and poetic sensibilities of all animals, I am working towards rediscovering the common ground that once existed when people lived in harmony with animals. The images depict a world that is without beginning or end, here or there, past or present.”
—Gregory Colbert, Creator of Ashes and Snow
The photographic artworks of Gregory Colbert explore the poetic sensibilities of animals in their natural habitat as they interact with human beings. No longer shown as merely a member of the family of man, humans are seen as a member of the family of animals.

GOD'S HEADSET
God Listens to John Coltrane
and Thelonious Monk
every day and Charlie Parker
and Miles Davis every night,
which is why, despite his age,
he remains so cool and
admirably inimitable.

PEOPLE TREE FAIR TRADE
I'm diggin' how simple this little commercial for People Tree is. It's also informative, cute and jammin' with a Lee "Scratch" Perry tune!

J.A.M.: KOOP
More goodness to celebrate Jazz Appreciation Month (J.A.M.)!
Koop is an electronic jazz duo from Sweden that consists of Magnus Zingmark and Oscar Simonsson. You've probably heard at least one of the numerous remix projects they've been involved with. A favorite is the remix for Astrud Gilberto's "Here's That Rainy Day" for the Verve Remixed project.
Their album "Waltz for Koop" is short with only 9 tracks...but man, this quickly became one of my favorite album. It's on my list of "Entire Albums to Share with People" :)
