Flashbelt Wrap-up

I attended the Flashbelt conference in Minneapolis, MN a couple of weeks ago, and left fully inspired, energized and a little overwhelmed by the experience. I had the same feeling last year when I left, and wanted to regain the feeling. It basically comes down to spending three 8 hour days getting bombarded with information [...]

the Dude on the web!

I logged in to post some info about the Dude print when I saw a link notice and followed it … then I just did a straight Google and I fell down a rabbit hole of blog posts about “the Dude”! Here’s a bunch of them, some with weird or incorrect information (I am not [...]

printing the Dude

Here are some photos from my screen printing process. I’ll try to sum up the 9 photos like this:
1. Burning and drying screens.
2. Creating a test page to use to register the print run.
3. Mixing and comparing inks. I added more red to the red, and more white to the blue post photo.

flashbelt wrap-up

who needs photoshop anyway?

http://www.fauxto.com/
I came across this today. If you want some of the features of Photoshop without installing and purchasing a graphics program, try it out. I was really impressed by the way you can upload, manipulate, and download your image seamlessly. The filters and paint tools are a little clunky, but if you don’t need high-end, [...]

eyeskull going live… by feb 1

I’ve been working on a new site- eyeskull.com 
 
I guess it is a street-art campaign, but it’s also a user-input fueled game. It’s kind of like a photo treasure hunt, with one half of the photo provided by me, and the other half by the user.
