Charm City
Recently, I’ve been doing a lot of networking; and one of the frequent topics of conversation has been the City itself, Baltimore. People inevitably want to understand why I left sunny California and adventurous Colorado for what is often perceived as a humdrum, quirky little town on the Chesapeake. And my answer is always the…

Ain’t that a kick in the head
I can not describe how things have been lately… formulating a cogent description eludes me. So I’ll summarize: I feel like I’ve been kicked in the teeth… And it’s my own doing… Images: Me

Just wondering…
So, can I just pop over to Edinburgh today? Y’know take the afternoon off, go to a museum, stroll along and take some snapshots while window-shopping… and then meet my loved ones for coffee… more strolling and then a late dinner with a view? Internet, does that work for you? Can I? Can I, huh,…

Viens voir, mes amis…
Lately, I’ve been on a French film kick. Ever the Francophile, it has been a nice change of pace to come home and listen to the soothing sounds of a language I know and love, acted beautifully as is so rarely seen these days. Recent favorites have been Port of Shadows (Le Quai des Brumes)…

Charm City
Today I miss Baltimore. There’s just something about that funny little town on the Chesapeake that cannot be found anywhere else in the world… Something about the people and the City’s strange little quirks that I will always love. Images: Me

Cycles
While catching up on postings from the various blogs I read regularly, I came across an entry by Seth Godin about the cycles through which business and industry move. He used Singer Sewing Machines as an example reminding his readers of the success Singer Co. formerly enjoyed and the relative decline of the company’s significance…

Cheer up mix
This morning came in swinging and I, unfortunately, am not much of a boxer. Feeling pretty awful, I paused a moment to take stock of the present and perked up a bit upon the personal remembrance that life is ultimately pretty darn good. Then I built a playlist of Cheer Up music to set a…

Fuel
Playful exploration and inventive vision prove far too difficult without the proper mental fuel… Perhaps I’m experiencing a fuel crisis of my own? Maybe time to seek alternative sources of inspirational fuel…

Contemporary Trends
I was reading the the New York Times today, and one article in particular caught my attention. The article gave a brief exploration of the current trend in naming colors after foods. It was only a few paragraphs before I found myself thinking of Patrick Jordan’s Supertrends concept and lecture(s). This article on food-colored cars…

New Sketchbook
As with any new sketchbook, I find myself suffering from “blank page syndrome” – too much white space, an ironic problem for a designer, really. The concept behind this site was to create a sort of “dynamic sketchbook” (dynamic as in evolving, and updated-able) to use for both writing and artistic experiments; sharing thoughts on…
