I couldn't help it. I had to share.

I love TI's original What You Know and in most cases would likely roll my eyes over any you tube's white kid's re-interpretation. But the math nerd in me swoons for this kind of humor. Delightfully awkward mathletes rapping about their ability to integrate? Yes, please.

Plus, instead of TI, they call themselves TI-84. That's a gold star right there. Straight up.

Louis Vuitton "Superflat Monogram" Japanese Cartoon

The following short is an animated ad campaign by Mamoru Hosoda advertising Takashi Murakami and Marc Jacob's line of Luis Vuitton products. While I have to say that I am not a fan of Luis Vuitton (it has nothing to do with handbags, its about the company) I am a Takashi Murakami Superflat lover. I'm a little dissapointed that such a gem of a short is plastered with LV signature symbols...but its pretty and precious none the less.

The real question is, why didn't I see earlier! >.< grr.
(thx2u analog.p)

Working hard or hardly working? I've lost track.
But, it always helps to have a bit-astic music to accompany the struggles of stress.
I have good friends who give me good music. Hats off to them.

This week's 'sauce* of the week' is this Nekoneko Cat and Carp toy!
(*a sauce of the week is something that I've determined is inherently saucesome ;))

Neko Neko Cat!

Here is another 'morning scene' of my third character. There are a few frames missing (I havn't drawn them yet) but I wanted to post it all anyway. I kind of enjoy seeing it all stacked together on Vox. Looks like a real comic book page! Horray!

I just wanted to briefly share some of the frames from one page of my senior project for media studies. The sequence is inherently simple, but you'll probably ask "Hold on a second, uh...how does this relate to media". And then I'd say "You'll just have to wait and see!".

So yeah. Wait and see! It's a work in progress! Right now these are all being drawn by hand with a pilot precise V5, a japanese mechanical pencil, and some sharpies. Really high tech over here. I've scanned the pages in at a high resolution with the intention of working it them into flash somehow. I still need to play around with things, but enjoi regardless, plz.

The past three meals I've had over the course of today and yesterday have all been soups. Matzha ball. Chicken udon. Lentil vegetable. This oncoming of soups indicates a fortuitous path in the universe. At least, for me.

The weekend was filled with traveling and work. Friday I went down to Trenton, NJ with Chico to take a quick visit to his family. The rest of the weekend I cozied up in Brooklyn, finally gaining the creative momentum to begin work on my Media Studies senior project, which in its present form exists as almost four pages of graphic narrative. I'm really excited about the work now that I've jumped into it, and reading Voxers' fascinating questionnaires certainly invigorated my thoughts. So many, many, thanks again to those who contributed.

Tom Goes to the Mayor

Meanwhile, the muses of Youtube videos and musical doncations from online friends have been exceedingly rich. Backdropping my work was a wide-array of tv episodes, from the bizarre Tom Goes to the Mayor (the video above is from an episode with Michael Ian Black...the best secret handshake in the world) and Wonder Schowzen to the competitively comedic Kenny vs. Spenny. Meanwhile, my friend Analog P. opened my ears to Boards of Canada and rg sent over Regina Spektor's 'anti-folk' album, which I've been listening to on repeat since I got it.

So things are good. The bittersweet oncoming of parting ways with school in the next month is very apparent. I don't think I've ever taken so many candid photos of Chico and I with my cellphone. Just mini mementoes, tiny faces to carry around with me, wherever I may go beyond graduation.

So things are great.
