This is pretty amazing, right? Beat made ONLY with sounds from a bicycle.

It's been a while

Just a quick update. I recently left Euro RSCG and took a new position at Arnold NY. I’ve been really enjoying it so far and will be working on interactive design and art direction for several accounts. As well, I’ve migrated the side project that began as Likes & Likes to a full fledged freelance business with The Working Assembly. Check out some of our recent projects for a...

They film the show Rubicon on a street near my office. I haven’t watched it yet, but upon researching to see what the show was all about, I stumbled upon the title graphics. Impressive.

“I believe that if, at the end of it all, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our...
