Your daily moment of Zen

This video, directed by Daniel Askill, the man behind a multitude of music videos including those for Placebo, UNKLE, Sia and Digitalism, is today's moment of zen.

Just an FYI

UPDATE: I've had a few people tell me they had problems with our shop site. In my quest to discover the culprit, I've come to find that my super sneaky web-ninja skills may be to blame. So I've turned off all frames and redirected things where they need to go, so everything should be dandy now.

Now, I'll be off to study how to be a web-ninja without breaking things.

A little inspiration

Today I watched one of the TED talks given by Elizabeth Gilbert on the topic of genius. Specifically the difference between the modern conception of BEING genius, versus the historical notion of HAVING genius. I found it quite enlightening.

The video is about 20 minutes long, but definitely worth watching.

Elizabeth Gilbert on Genius

I think it is important to recognize the role that inspiration plays in the creative process. Of course, to large degree, every work of art/literature/performance is attributable to the skill of the artist, but the intangible truth of inspiration often contributes just as much to the work. There is surely a difference between a craftsman and an artist.

Inspiration, by definition is an unconscious burst of creativity. While we have no qualms as a society accepting the idea that inspiration exists, we somehow expect to attribute all of the responsibility of the final product to the artist. This is where this talk really strikes a chord with me.

Having been in the position where the anxiety of fleeting inspiration sets in, it's certainly a welcome concept to be able to lay some of that responsibility on an outside influence, however intangible and obscure the influence may be.

Sketchbook Lovin'

Hi All,

I was going through documenting some of my work the other day, and decided to take some shots of past and current sketchbooks. I'm going to post some of the spreads here just for fun, so you can all get a little glimpse of the crap that comes out of my head.

Three today, more later. :)

a little bit of random

This is a little something I pieced together from photos I took in Las Vegas last month. There was an unbelievable amount of construction going on.

Original image is 14,400px wide and weighs 856MB. It is composed of 6 photos stitched together. My computer is such a trooper for putting up with me.
