A short excerpt from a project I have been working on. It involves taking the same walk (same movements, camera action, as much as I can manage) in three different places - and then stacking the resulting video. The audio, though it sounds like the ocean is actually of a truck engine idling in Koreatown. I have been working on doing a whole series, each in a different set of locations around southern califoria.

So, to my amazement this email appeared today informing me that a comic I did in January was published in this fat full color volume of comics. hmmm? If anyone is interested, you can find it here.
Also I once made a promise to myself I would not paint comics. I wonder who was right, earlier me or now me?

These are two of the three or four prints I will have in the upcoming Giant Robot Print show here in L.A. I am thinking of printing one of them fairly large possibly in more colors.
I think the show may be the 11th of July. I will post an announcement promptly.
Also...
I have been working on a project for Kaki King- that may have influenced the above. It is still in progress- but since these photos are up elsewhere I thought I would put them here. I think the show is going to be in August. I am still looking for an excuse to go.

Gemini Ad 2
Having not posted in a while I am tempted to put up a years worth of ephemera. This tickled me so much- I was excited to take this photo for Gemini's Art Forum ad...and now it is for sale on ebay? what? P.S. look out for June's issue...I took 3 1/2 photos for a 5 page ad...can you spot the 1/2?

I took the train out to the opening at the Claremont Grad. School yesterday. I got there just at the end- but it was really nice, probably my favorite show I've been in- and I took awful photos (!) It was hung super minimally. I really like the amount of space everything had.
I met some of the students there (two I knew-accd classmates) and got a tour of the studios. It just made me want to go to grad school a lot. I love the idea of being around that many people working all the time.
I got a kick out of Christina Pierson who showed us her studio. She works with super simple material- and then tracks the light that hits them, or reflects it or...
After messing around with vinyl lettering this week I keep thinking I should try new materials.
So here are some photos of the show. Thanks to everyone who so kindly showed me around and fed me cupcakes and beer.
On the subway home this morning there was a group of about 8 kids (10-12?) years old all with skateboards. They ran up the escalator at civic center before I could get a great picture. I envied them so much- that was exactly what I would have been wanting to do at their age: riding the subway downtown, no adults and fours wheels.
