The first of several Artist Collaborations this season. We each had loads of fun making this project come to fruition.
Kudos to everyone involved!

So I’m sitting here thinking about the world we live in today…
A black man in office during some of the hardest financial times I’ve ever seen and little ole me; Heavy on my daily grind with a 10-6. Trying to pay the cost to be the boss. Can’t help but think I played some miniscule part in that.
So I sit here, contemplating buying a 3rd mac for the new apartment so I can handle more audio and video work… wonder if getting this new mobile me account will really keep me organized and sync’d up enough to manage all the projects I’m working on, amidst 4 computers ( the 4th being the one I now have at my work)
Which brings to my fancy new Maroon Pack that can fits both my laptop and camera…
and matches my Fall/Winter wears
which we are quickly selling out of and diligently working to release new versions of…
particularly the artist collaboration series!
Aw man ok… I’ve said too much.
; )
Next time!

I dug this audio interview from my media archive (a shoebox of cassette tapes). It features a very candid interview I did with Shep in 1999 for my Masters Thesis. The Thesis focused on designers that use traditional advertising techniques to push social, subversive and/or anti-consumerist messages. This interview features an earnest sounding, pre-talking point Shep, before he went superdupernova. Here’s a segment, the full transcribed interview can be found in the Thesis pdf here.

Whenever I watch a film shot in NYC it’s always exciting to identify the street, neighborhood, train station or project building that was used in the location. Being born & raised in NYC I think I’m pretty damn good at it and sometimes the continuity doesn’t add up for example, a character can come out of the Union Square subway station and walk across the street to their apartment in Queens. Or better yet, when films ALWAYS use that shut down part of Hoyt–Schermerhorn station on the IND line but the character is supposed to be in Manhattan on an IRT line – C’mon Dog!
My most recent spotting were the same DUMBO streets and camera angles used for American Gangster (2008) that were first used in The French Connection (1971).
Last Summer they shut down my street and at 3AM towed all the parked cars on Franklin Avenue to film a scene from Notorious. I can’t wait to check this movie not only for the big screen biography of Biggie, but also because I get to see the US film industry’s oldest co-star – NYC.
