Saw this on my morning walk today--some sort of angular butterfly?<br />

Playground chalk drawings are kinda like urban sand drawings--there for the moment, until the water washes them away. They're always inspiring... and represent what the artist was thinking at the time. It's always changing--like an endless cycle of colored doodles and visual ramblings. I love it.PlaygroundRockstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15565612934895166202noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567006524960084230.post-36370445193513017342010-08-04T10:11:00.000-04:002010-08-04T10:11:58.530-04:00YEAH BABY!...

MANY MANY THANKS to everyone who came out this past Sunday to Jersey City's PADNA BBQ & Street Fair. Despite the sunshowers, it was a great day full of bubbles, balloons, bright smiles, old friends, new friends, dancey tunes and LOTS of little rockstars! <a href="http://www.dinnadiaz.com/">Dinna</a> and I thank you for the love! Most of all, thanks to Andrea for inviting us to all the fun!
<br />
<br />
And... NO WE DON'T STOP!
<br />
<br />
Join us this Saturday 7/17 in Brooklyn as we're a part of Kidding Around @ Brooklyn Indie Market! Find the big red & white tent on Smith Street between President & Union in Carroll Gardens--that's where ALL magic happens! We'll be there, along with other talented local vendors, artists and designers, all specializing in handmade style for kids--from tots to tweens. There will be a children's book swap--so bring a book to trade. Also joining us will be <a href="http://www.startingartists.org/">Starting Artists</a>, an awesome organization dedicated to bringing hands-on art and entrepreneurial skills to students thru enriching afterschool and vacation programs.
<br />
<br />
So as you can see--it's all about the kids. They totally rock. But you already knew that!
<br />
<br />
Hope to see you there! :)

They can be bold. They can have words. They can have pictures. They can make statements. They simply feel and look good.

<br><br>
recently, i was watching tv and things have DEFINITELY changed. a couple beer commercials later, and the 'jingles' were swapped out for songs straight from my itunes library! Bud Light Lime with Santigold in the background and Amstel with Brazilian Girls! how do they choose these tracks? obviously they're trying to reach certain demographics mainly through the power of music. very smart!
<br><br>
and looking back, there are quite a few commercials w/ soundtracks that are 30 seconds of coolness. here's a quick list i compiled (err.. tweeted) with the help of one of my buddies, @PatPoon.

I'M STILL IN AWE...</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">from a trip into one of the most amazing and creative minds of our time. checked out the </span><a href="http://www.moma.org/interactives/exhibitions/2009/timburton/index.php"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Tim Burton exhibit at the MoMA</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"> w/ my most best friend and was simply blown away and inspired. the man behind such classics as Edward Scissorhands (my fave), Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, The Nightmare Before Christmas and the most recent, Alice in Wonderland, gives a glimpse into his world. what amazed me the most was his constant doodling and visual ramblings that shaped his ideas and brand of darkness that found its way onto the big screen and into OUR world. there was so much to take in and admire... walking thru the mind of Tim Burton was indeed like being in Wonderland... the only obvious next step would be Oz?... (crosses fingers)</span></div>
<br />
i apologize for the lack of pics from the exhibit... i got dirty looks from museum staff whenever i pulled out my iphone... and i don't think the true essence of Tim Burton can be expressed in a dinky little phone pic. so... you should just go see it for yourself! (be sure to buy tickets, they DO sell out!)<br />

some may call it obsessive compulsive. some may ask if you were really that bored. some will just ask why?<br />
<br />
i say why not?<br />
<br />
i'm a visual person. i speak in color (even tho i don't wear much of it). it's a key part of my world, and without it i feel lost. black and white is simply not enough... i need options.<br />
<br />
we practically live in a giant kaleidoscope, especially in the city. the visual clutter of the urban terrain can be frenetic and chaotic, like a big jumbled collage. it tends to follow us home as well, especially if we have lots of stuff.<br />
<br />
here's something to try: organizing by color. do this with your books, dvds, cds, wardrobe or whatever you have alot of and you'll notice a new visual freshness to your living space. it almost has a zen-like quality as it follows the natural spectrum of light. it's very easy on the eyes. it's a freakin rainbow in your living room! amazing!<br />
<br />
so give it a shot. there's a great tutorial on <a href="http://www.colourlovers.com/home/blog/2008/01/25/organizing-bookshelves-by-color">COLOURlovers</a>PlaygroundRockstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15565612934895166202noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567006524960084230.post-74110657265143183022010-03-02T11:11:00.000-05:002010-03-02T11:11:22.470-05:00IT'S A WALKOFF!...NYC is a pedestrian city, so i walk alot. because i do, i pretty much have my headphones on all the time. 'shuffle songs' is like the soundtrack to my travels... and certain songs remind me of some of my favorite flicks...<br />
<br />
here's a quick list (i know, i'm all over the place):<br />
<br />
simple minds/don't you forget about me - the breakfast club<br />
al green/let's stay together - pulp fiction<br />
prodigy/voodoo people - hackers<br />
war/low rider - up in smoke<br />
madonna/lucky star - snatch<br />
average white band/picking up the pieces - swingers<br />
jamiroquai/canned heat - napoleon dynamite
<br />
underworld/born slippy - trainspotting<br />
anything by the shins or zero 7 - garden state<br />
dead or alive/you spin me round - the wedding singer<br />
smashing pumpkins/eye - lost highway<br />
queen/we are the champions - d2: the mighty ducks<br />
<br />
and my fave of the list:<br />
<br />
michael jackson/beat it - ZOOLANDER<br />
<br />
