MIXTAPE: Childish Gambino – I Do Not Talk
Childish Gambino aka Donald Glover is killing it right now. Dude is everywhere. I’m watching him on Community the other night and have him on steady rotation in my office. It’s inspirational to see someone cross mediums like he’s done it. Young Will Smith… Better rapper already though.

In his work he began with an existing book and sealed its edges, creating an enclosed vessel full of unearthed potential. He cut into the surface of the book to dissect through it from the front. Working with knives, tweezers and surgical tools to carve one page at a time, exposing each layer while cutting around ideas and images of interest. Nothing inside the books is relocated or...

This was a very special episode for me because in many ways, I am these children. All my thanks to...
Contemporary Cantilever House Design
The pictures simply do not do justice to the view from this incredible set cantilevered constructions, jutting out from the core structure of the house and seeming to hover in space.

One of my favorite artists right now, Josh Keyes’ style is reminiscent of the diagrammatic vocabulary found in scientific textbook illustrations that often express through a detached and clinical viewpoint an empirical representation of the natural world. Assembled into this virtual stage set are references to contemporary events along with images and themes from his personal mythology....

New Gucci Face Tat
Vibe interviewed Shane Willoughby— aka the dude who inked Gucci’s ice cream cone tat— who said: “I was [hesitant] like, ‘Are you sure you want to put that much [ink] in that area?’ He knew what he was doing. He said, ‘I want something rock ‘n’ roll.’ There’s nothing more rock ‘n’ roll than lightning bolts.”

Just finished my third studio design, a 50,000 ft2 comic book museum in the Lower East side of Manhattan. Building is a dissection of four collided masses representing the integration of cultures and backgrounds of the residents of the area, while paralleling a closer look at the art of comic book making with the architecture itself.

The Tree of Life
Super excited for this new film from one of my favorite directors, Terrence Malick. Love the way he mixes wide angle personal shots of the characters with beautifully filmed b-role shots of nature. Like most of his films it looks like it is shot almost entirely during the golden and magic hour (the hours before and after the sun comes up and goes down)
