I was leisurely IMing with my buddy Jon this morning and it came upon me to ask him to redesign my blog. He is more of a designer than me and I figured anything he could draw up, I could build in Wordpress. Well, his response was saddening…”perhaps” he said. Perhaps? PERHAPS? Talk about being [...]

CONTENT ADVISORY – NOT FOR THE EASILY OFFENDED
Many times in life we have these instances where we see something or hear something about ourselves and think, “When in the world did I do that?”
For some this is a small bruise after a night of drinking, for others it is reading a brilliant thesis from early [...]

Sprint’s “Now” widget cloud, hosts more than 40 separate widgets that do everything from pong to population growth to current videos being watched online.

This is the video piece from my recent gallery installation at WorkSound. It’s a comedic stop-motion involving my other metal sculpture pieces. Enjoy.

Okay, so although I’ve only played bike polo once before, it has become a rather frequent topic around recently.

Giving my most recent findings in the pursuit of the perfect messenger bag (now the perfect backpack), I felt the need to enlist an active backpack for service.
Introducing FRANKY (short for Frankenstein), my first manifestation of backpackness.

(see slideshow below & please note my friggin sweet new Mark “The Gonz” Gonzales kicks.)

FRANKY is a mash-up [...]

LARGE VERSION – link

I’ve been trying to draw up a pattern for a while now based on my most recent findings. This isn’t necessarily the best version, but it includes the features I’m looking for in my next run. It looks like a big project.
Maybe the pattern can help out any other would-be bag makers [...]

Notes:
A little something I put together for my messenger bag making. I actually just got the idea from the photos Jon shot of me earlier today. It’s bits and pieces from video I had taken months ago, photos of me by Jon, and photos I shot of the new bag today.
Thanks to: JonnyPockets (photos) and [...]

Thanks for tuning in.

Notes:
This bag is not yet completed. I didn’t have the correct web strapping handy, so it will have to wait until tomorrow. The features on this bag definatley surpass any of my previous creations. And although some of the bag I am not happy with, it is a step onto a whole new realm. More [...]
