Christoph Niemann: I LEGO NY
Christoph Niemann is a brilliant illustrator. His work is always so clever that it often sparks jealousy among creatives alike. This work especially reminds me of the beauty of a child’s mind and the ability to see beyond the limits of wordly relationships. Play allows us to find new and multiple meaning in the abstract. Enjoy.
Happy Birthday to Me

Today marks one full year in which this blog had its first post. Thank you very much for following this blog. I hope it’s been as good for you as it has for me.
Meeting Andy Gilmore
Back on September 5th, I met Andy Gilmore at a showing of his work with some great music from LouLou and the Sharp Sword. After a long anticipated talk with Andy about his work, I had learned quite a bit. He believes that they are geometric proportions that exist naturally and that we tend to encounter them at some wonderful moments. These proportions occur in all aspects of life. We discussed how this is encountered through skateboarding, music and several other forms. Gilmore works tediously at this, whether it’s through the designs that he does mostly in illustrator, his extremely fine, analytical illustrations, or the music he produces.
Waking the Dragon
So, after a long series of excuses that I could give for not posting, I’ve decided to finally catch up with updating this beloved blog. I have some good stuff to come, so watch for it. Thank you, to everyone who reads this.
Internet People
It’s a strange sense of humor that spreads among people. Luckily corporate America hasn’t figured out how to take advantage of this yet. The closest has to be either Geico with the cavemen or apple with the PC vs Mac ads.
Thanks to If Its Hip Its Here for bringing this to my attention.
Strangely enough, the latest episode of South Park was exactly about this.
