I wholeheartedly love and support Add Art (the brilliant Firefox plug-in that replaces web banner ads with random art with about 99% success) but I just have one small suggestion for making it better. I would like easy to navigate access to all past sets of Add Art and the ability to create a profile, [...]

One thing I never knew until recently was how much digital artists seem to depend on each other. Sort of like djs taking samples of each other’s music, photoshop artists put images and imagelets from every imaginable place, remixing them to new and unrecognizable shapes. Maybe it’s stupid that I never thought about this until [...]

The other day I observed that one of my friends in Seattle had added his middle name as “Hussein” on facebook, presumably as a nod of support toward Obama and stab of mockery at those politicians and media clowns who would play on the “terrorist” implications of the name. I thought this waas hysterically funny [...]

The blog is a great compendium of notes and discoveries on alternative culture in “a time where alt culture no longer exists”; a kabinett of internet curiosities interpreted with inquisitiveness and intelligence. I am stoked to be there. My first post went up today, about the [...]

My good friend and fellow photographer Logan sent me an article the other day about the death of photojournalism at the hands of the evil internet and the multitudes of Flickr type amateurs who have overrun the craft and buried it under thousands of poorly-lit snapshots. Phooey! I find this kind of sky-is-falling nonsense misses [...]

I have found it; the perfect gift for the sexy geek in your life. ThinkGeek understands that sexy isn’t necessarily a red satin bustier or thigh-baring booty shorts; sexy just might be a hint of what lurks behind the smirk.

A friend recently pointed me to a neat little webtoy called Animoto. It’s a service that allows you to create a 30 second animated video slideshow with your own images and music, content either uploaded from your computer, grabbed from the web, or chosen from their stock collection. You can easily crosspost your movie to [...]

I just frittered the whole morning on web tidying and little miscellaneous tasks that I had been putting off so that I could do them all in one go someday. Updating some things for a client, ordering some stuff from the printers, updating my own bio and services and front page, adding new images to [...]
