The internet is still an amazing place to get lost. Sometimes, I stumble into an old familiar neighborhood and get a little deja vu. This happened in a very pleasant way this week when I found a music video (that I thought was new) from the band OK Go. OK Go became famous for doing […]
Another day, another batch of links, and I’ve still got more stuff I want to do before I rest. I’ll get there–it just feels like there are not enough hours in the day. I just posted my fifth Phase post (article or whatever). I never thought these would be easy to do. It’s harder than […]
Time flies. Days turn into weeks, into months, into years, and it’s easy to lose track of it all. I’ve been at this design game for a long time now. From my production designer days to managing teams and everything in between–I still find it interesting (which is good). That’s not to say each job […]
I can’t believe the month is two-thirds over. The new year just started–where did these weeks go? I’ve been pulling (or reposting) all of my Medium content over to this site. It’s tedious but kind of fun to look back on my past efforts. I’m not grabbing every week’s link posts, just the more crafted […]
The Los Angeles fires are affecting so many people in our creative community in devastating ways. It’s horrible to watch and with each new post, gofundme campaign, and news story it’s a reminder of how fragile our lives are. If you are in a position to help, I’m including links to do just that. Give […]
Welcome to 2025. It’s a lot like 2024 so far. The main difference is that you must remember to put a five at the end of the date. The links are new, the layout got a little refresh, and that’s about it. There’s nothing new to promote aside from the amazing work below by other […]
One last batch before the year ends. Since I took last week off, this one is chock full. Hopefully, you are doing something fun on New Year’s Eve, and you find these links later in the week. If you are looking for even more, I quietly dropped another Phase post last week. See you all […]
The fact that it’s December feels like we’re at the end of something–a big milestone that we call a year. I put pressure on myself to get things done. It’s fabricated. There are no implications if I don’t post this. If I don’t create another Phase post (I did this last night–better late than never). […]
Black Friday week is upon us. Wasn’t it just one day before? The deals keep coming, and there is nothing that can stop it. It doesn’t matter if you give in and buy–the deals keep coming. As smart as the algorithms are, they still can’t seem to understand that their powers may have already completed […]
No time for words right now. Today, I’ll be giving my first design presentation. It’s called ‘How Not to Apply for a Design Job’ and it’s all about the horrible mistakes I see, over and over, in job applications. It’s not intended to blame–I’ve made most of these errors myself. I’m trying to help in […]
