Obama Writes to Shepard Fairey

A letter from Barack Obama to Shepard Fairey
Obama wrote a thank you letter to Shepard Fairey regarding his "Progress" and "Change" posters. I like the idea of a president who is not only aware of but also receptive to the different cultures in our society. Read the letter here.

I Ripped You Off

Crazy, someone sent me a link to this Threadless shirt, which, now that I look at it, I remember seeing it when it came out. I jotted down the idea for this illustration last week, and maybe subconsciously remembered this shirt? The similarities with the orange are uncanny.

Bon Iver


Zach turned me on to this album a few months ago, and it’s awesome to finally put a face to the voice.

Lover In The Snow



Really great music video for “Lover In The Snow” by Rivers Cuomo of Weezer. This track is my favorite from the album.

Screen Printing

I made my second emulsion based silk screen this weekend, and am very happy with the results. The precision and quality of the prints are light years ahead of my old method, and I'm now comfortable enough with the process to make a real project with it.

Open Book

A photograph of the words I Miss Her
The first time I had my heart broken by a girl I knew it was coming. I went into the bathroom at the restaurant we were at and wrote "It's all ending" in black marker on the wall. It was melodramatic and bizarrely therapeutic, as I imagine the writing on this wall was.

Great Site for Making Mixtapes

muxtape.com
My friend Justin created this great site for making digital mixtapes. Here is the one I whipped up. Click on the track title to start the music, and it will cycle through the songs. Try listening to it without skipping ahead, or looking at what song is coming next.

Celebrity

I saw two famous people today. Demetri Martin getting on the L train and John Malkovich getting in a car with his family. At both encounters there was a split second reaction of “Whoa! A friend of mine. I should say hi.” Immediately followed by an abrupt realization that this person is not my friend, but a complete stranger. It dawned on me that the danger of celebrity arises when that second realization doesn’t hit.
