Free Music, Darling

Last Weeks Interestings recently posted about Lucky Me Mixtapes. Go download the podcast. Its funky.
Speaking of funky, I am reading Kill All Your Darlings by Luc Sante. In a short story called I Thought I Heard Buddy Boldon Say, Sante describes how the word funky came to be popular - eventually leading to a type of music. Highly recommend. The way he uses words describes more than the words themselves or maybe its just his command of the language....

Vermont & Some Thoughts

The past year has been a little hectic, hence the lack of posts. I am currently doing some much needed recharging. There is so much that I want to talk to you about but we're going to take some baby steps. I recently went up near Montpelier, Vermont to visit a friend who is building a self-sustainable home. He has built an outhouse, revitalized an old cabin you'll see below, made gorgeous wooden lawn chairs, planted an orchard, preserved a bog.... you get the point. After my own year of balls-out work to rebrand a somewhat massive computer company(obvious not alone), this visit really put things in perspective. I don't really know what this means but I hope the impact will be significant.
4 of us stayed in this wonderful little cabin
This last photo is sadly out of focus but I didn't feel like taking it again. These are various mosses and fungi I collected from the trip. They will nicely compliment the collection from my visit to Ashland, Oregon.

Armory

: the International Exhibition of Modern Art
Reporting a week late but from my estimate there was not a lot to report on. Regardless, I enjoy going to see what people have made. Sister Corita Kent (November 20, 1918 – September 18, 1986), the progressive silkscreen poster making nun from L.A. had work there and that was nice to see. Below are just some pieces of hers that I grabbed of the web.And then there were these:

Dreamt

I was reading. So the dream was watching myself read, but I, the dreamer, was not privy to what I was reading. And the dream was me reading on the couch the whole time. Very boring.

Woken up by an electric flash of light.

Dreaming about sleeping. I started floating. Woke up in my dream and watched lightening flash against the walls.

Born 1969, UK, works in Hong Kong
Work currently on display at Ogilvy courtesy of Carmichael GalleryI got a call while I was at the office around 6 this Friday and some friends said they were in my building to see some artwork. I am so conditioned to tuned out all office goings-ons (and also just take for granted all the amazing artwork that we are exposed to) that I didn't even realize that there was some new stuff up on the other floors. Thanks to Public Ad Campaign, Liz & Dri.
