Previously Written December 12th

I went back to Cali for Thanksgiving, which was the first Thanksgiving in California since I moved to Chicago. I didn’t have any plans except NOT to shop on black Friday and to see the Takeshi Murakami and Giant Robot exhibits in LA. The MOCA was closed on Tuesday and Wednesday, all I did was catch up with sleep and food in my body.

the 60 minute man…

Undefeated and UBIQ t-shirts hit the market today. i’m super proud of this. seeing your idea manifest is crazy when it’s on this scale. i never thought i’d be able to work with those guys. also… check out some info on chuck bednarik (the guy on the tee)… the dude was insane, and they certainly don’t make players like that anymore.. if you’re into it, you can pick up the tees here on the ubiq site. big thanks to eddie and pete for helping make this a reality.

My agency TAXI did something really cool this year. I wont go into detail in this post but you should check out the 15below site and make double sure you check out the test video. I’m stoked on this idea and on the fact that my employer is fuckin’ RAD.

Fabrix Device Cases



Fabrix, a company out of Singapore, is putting out some nice simple designs that get the job done. The best part is that they are willing to custom build any size case for your gadget needs for just a few dollars more. Dope.

im intrigued.

so during my time at film school i was apart of and witnessed some of the worst films in the history of cinema.

i found this film synopsis, and couldn’t help but share:

“Jack and Diane, two teenage lesbians, meet in New York City and spend the night kissing ferociously. Diane’s charming innocence quickly begins to open Jack’s tough skinned heart. But, when Jack discovers that Diane is leaving the country in a week she tries to push her away. Diane must struggle to keep their love alive while hiding the secret that her newly awakened sexual desire occasionally turns her into a werewolf.”

I thought it was funny until i found out that its a real feature film, with a real budget and i’m really going to see it when it comes out.
