mobile campus update

We aren’t sure yet what we will call our 3rd location, but so far we’ve been simply calling it our Mobile Campus. Eventually, once we’ve locked in the area that it’ll be, we’ll give it a little more specific name. So far it sounds like its a mobile campus (especially for you out-of-towners), but I [...]

video goodies you should see

I love Vimeo. Just needed to get that out. Anywho, I came across this beautiful stop motion piece that I needed to share. Olympus put this together as promotion for their camera, the PEN.

sticky creativity

I’m a huge fan of stop motion work, and this is one of the coolest ones I’ve ever seen. The fact that it’s simply post-it notes is so rad. Alright, enough of me already, watch: In combination with that, the great @loswhit made a statement today on Twitter that has haunted the crap out of [...]

a white room

What could you do with a white room? Check this vid: As soon as I saw this I was reminded of one of my favorite books, Twyla Tharps ‘The Creative Habit.’ In it she says that the most creative environment for her is a white room. Its a clean slate to her. This video takes [...]
