underground cosmetics

So this photographer Jacob Murphy was pitching doing some work India for my firmand while that didn't end up panning out i still like his work. he did one of those project 365 type deals and some of his shots were stunning. i dont know if this came from his picture a day project but i quite like it.

Evloution of a sketch book

"Put it on paper, brother"

a quote found inside a sketch book I received for a recent birthday that i had let go unadhered to for too long, inspired me to finally enter the beginning the first design/drawing/doodle. its a borderesque, on the border of the page, not in the manner of Matthew , thing mainly because i didn't want to start in the middle of a blank page.

it's really the first sketch book i have started that i expect to have a decent amount of content in eventually. i say this now, but who knows when it shall last until, i want to add something each day. tiny, big, drawing, words, ideas, new, continuation, some form of addition. can a subtraction be an addition?.. now i'm pretty sure theres a ton of pages, but hey i got a lot of ideas.

a berry filled weekend may be upon us though i have yet to know what that even remotely means. in god we rust.

8 Bit Fight Club Finale

So i heard this song yesterday, an 8-Bit version of Where is My Mind by the Pixies. And i thought it was pretty sweet. Then i got an even sweeter idea. And i took that idea out of my brain and put it on the internet...

And now it looks like this --- a sweet creation.


Resources involved
Idea --- The song
Instructions --- This guy told me how to do it
Song File --- Gotta download it somewhere
Font --- Good ol' Nofriendo text
Graphic --- umm the whole wide internets
Tools --- Animation Program
--- Conversion Program
--- Gimp, OS photoshop more or less
--- MS Paint, who doesn't love it?


If you like Fight Club, or Mario, it's pretty cool.

big thoughts

so i'm becoming more and more mystified by the idea of starting my own company.
!) graphic design firm
@) music label
art and music. difficult markets to penetrate as i've been told, but that's information from people that weren't me so i think ima need some primary data on the subject.
we'll see.

pipedream records sound like a cool name for my label. lemme see if its already done.
damn brits..
well, ill give them props for beating me to it.. i guess.

Until thennnn

just found an awesome site
http://www.ohmyrockness.com/
check it out.
show listings nyc, chi.town, LA, and apparently some SXSW coverage which i haven't looked at yet.
most thorough site i've found on the subject of indie rocks shows in pre-designated areas.
seriously- they have the whole nine.

that sounds cool too.
whole nine.
whole nine records.
hole nine records.
hole 9 records.
hole IX records.
whole IX records.
hole 9 i like the best. a mixture of complete and halfway done. solid.

one day i'll be like "hey, this was the first post."
