I have cataloged all of my visual art and everything is for sale. Check it out here.

One week from today is the opening night reception for The School of the Art Institute of Chicago’s Fall Undergraduate Exhibition. The show is for graduating undergraduates. I will have a visual piece in the show titled Digital to Analog Conversion (2008).

As many of you know, I have come to school primarily as a printmaker and have morphed into something else. I’m not sure how much more IMAGE projects I will work on the future. If you can make it to the opening, it would be great to see you. It will be a good time for celebration and stories.

The Future of Online Music

Saturday, August 30th, 2008

There is a new article about “The Future of Music” everyday. Every once in a while something is written on the topic that seems to indicate a bench mark in the discussion, something with a little perspective. A recent ReadWriteWeb article has some of these qualities. The article specifically deals with the online aspect of the future of music and what types of services we may see more of.

Starschreck update: Back in Chicago

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

I’m back from Cali. Gone so quick, some might not have known that I had left. I had a great time seeing friends and family and visiting San Fransisco, San Jose, and surrounding areas. Starschreck will resume per usual with delicious (is this what we’re calling it now?) links, posts, and with new work on it’s way.

Conversational highlight of the trip (approximation):

Dan: I don’t think there is a cloud in the sky!

Anonymous: Yeh, it’s beautiful and sunny like this every day out here. It’s so beautiful all the time it can get sort of depressing.

The Art of Avatars

Monday, August 4th, 2008

The art of self promotion is a funny one. It has been fun to watch personal icons develop. Myspace is littered with alluring women and attention getting animated jerkiness.

I came across the greatest personal icon I have ever seen. It is the entire movie Terminator 2, beginning and end credits included. And it loops for eternity.

Starschreck update: armed with del.icio.us

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

I have started using del.icio.us more and have decided to incorporate that into Starschreck. Using del.icio.us with a WordPress widget allows me to bookmark current articles that I am reading and have those articles immediately featured on Starschreck. I think that’s pretty cool.

My 10 most current del.icio.us links will be available at the bottom of the links page. The goal is to link one new website or article per day. Let’s see how I do.

Update: After one week I have successfully not met my goal of posting one new link per day. The goal has been changed for posting 365 links in 365 days. Averages are my friend.
