Muxtape 2
another carefully curated Muxtape!
this one is a little Poppier, Summerier...
-El Guincho-
world influenced music from spain, this song makes me wish i was spending my summer closer to a beach, with kettle drums, and a pina colada...
-Santogold-
most compare her to M.I.A. i think she has more of a Gwen Stefani meets Karen O. thing goin on.
-Cut Copy-
an Erasure-esque summer disco tune.
-The Tough Alliance-
the best Pop comes from sweden. i wasn't sure about them at first, but their hooks prove effective.
-Grizzly Bear-
this Letterman bootleg is the only copy out there right now, can't wait for the studio version.

Theatre Ad

here's a little animation and music I did for an ad to run in local theatres before the movies. It had to match the current Mac back to school promotion. Nothing too impressive, but the little jingle/groove was fun to make. I've gone to movies a couple times lately, but i've yet to catch this on the big screen.

Things like this give me hope for Humanity.
I pass this on the way back from campus. it's good to hear you look good, even if coming from an immobile traffic light control box.

I've been "tagged",
i think this is Marc 'n Katie's way of helping me break down my emotional wall

3 Joys:
a good beverage
being an essential part of a group of friends
discovery (corny but true. i mean travel etc, is the best)



3 Fears:
to answer this i've recalled some common and repeated nightmares...
-the end of the world
-death of loved ones
-being really late for a way sweet concert.

3 Goals:
make a record, even if I own the only copy.
run a marathon in September (i've hit some obstacles, have some catchin up to do)
find a girl, i have to be honest...

3 Obsessions:
-music, occupies a vast majority of my time
-i've lately been in constant search of more intellectual sometimes trivial "No Way!" moments, the likes that are found in "RadioLab" broadcasts, TED speeches, Malcolm Gladwell books, etc.
-dinosaurs
-and arrested development
- this list was the easy one, i could go on...

3 Random Facts:
i can hang at least 6 spoons from my face.
i'm really good at Magic Eye posters, really.
i used to think the word "nearby" could be pronounced "nerby"

New Camera






i have purchased a canon rebel xsi. it's a lot of fun. here's some test run shots. not great photos by any means, but still some shots i couldn't take with old camera.
i'm typing with one hand due to my left arm being in a sling. very tedious. long story for another posting when i can type better.
