Moby




I haven't checked most of his stuff since Play....


Here's a video that came out this year for his new album Wait For Me. The drawings were made by David Lynch by the way.

Family Stone
O'Neil left his message in hebrew to the world on the concrete pavement... very prophetic!

Nothing like enjoying the nice weather in Houston, sitting outside having a conversation over coffee at t'afia and disturbing some stones at the patio...

As bad as it sounds, I couldn't resist but to purchase this hand drawn Japanese clipart book...and I'm loving every single page of it. 1000 eps files scraps in a cd!!! My lazy ass and I feel extremely guilty right now!

Sometimes you just need a little push. Thanks, dad.

This site just feeds my goofy sense of humor like a feast. Just can't stop laughing...

3 great first albums and a very boy-band-ish 4th. I'm really curious to check them out live. Please play "California Waiting" that's all I ask...

Fever Ray Video collection

One of my favorite albums of 2009 by far is the anonymous Fever Ray (Karin Dreijer Andersson, the girl half of The Knife). The music evokes primal drums and flute in a druid gathering in the middle of the forest juxtaposed with intricate electronic beats and to top it off, Karin haunting voice. The promotional videos don't disappoint either. Each one of them is a unique narrative of beautiful images, cryptic symbols of sheer weirdness that would make Matthew Barney go home and cry. From art cover, remixes and to costume everything is thought out to be part of a whole concept . Enjoy...it's a raining and gray day out and I can't imagine listening to anything else.

Not quite a urban guerilla, but don't be surprise if you see the shy little girl sticker around the town, got plenty of adhesive paper left.

Movie Recommendation: The September Issue

Saw this movie last night, if you get past the Devil-wears-Prada-ish crap, this is a very insightful and funny documentary about the creative process that involves putting together Vogue's biggest issue of the year... Grace Coddington (art director) just steals this movie from Anna Wintour! Every graphic designer has been on her shoes once (no pun intended). 

The movie is out September 25th.

FYI


I will be contributing again this year to Lawndale Art Center 22nd Annual Dias de Los Muertos.


On the other good note I will be involved on a new project ArtStorm is putting together, a limited edition book, featuring 30 artists. Stay tuned... Summer 2010.

Being Cartoon-ized


I've had my caricature made this weekend (what a little vodka soda can't do...) I wished Ive had memorized the artist's name for proper credit, he is quite a character himself. It took him less than 5 minutes to draw the whole thing... specially liked the cop he drew on the side. Thanks for the suggestion Terence that was fun!
