I’ve got like 200 or so of my own beats and songs in my iTunes library that have never been distributed at all. So, I figured I’d blow the dust off of some of this forgotten music and finally share it. First up is a song I recorded earlier this year titled “The Puzzle.” It’s [...]
I’m not all that into World music, but this guy Ivan, is the man. I first found out about him on one of my crate-digging missions at a thrift store (probably in Reno) and was amazed at how stereotypical his songs were. He sings a song called “Hey Andruska” in which he asks repeatedly for [...]
I was running errands today and I stopped by Beverly’s and they had canvas on a half-off sale. So I copped two 11×14′s and two 16×20′s and went to work. I had a stencil design sittin’ around on my computer collecting digital dust so I printed it, cut it, sprayed it, and now I can’t [...]
Holy crap this is amazing. My friend Gary showed me this video he found on College Humor and it is bonified genius. You’ve probably seen these “flash mob” things before (an overhead candid-camera shot of a busy train station and unexpectedly a large group of the people freeze in place leaving the unsuspecting passersby stunned) [...]

My roommate Amanda (http://www.ivegonegraphic.com) commissioned me to make a stencil of her wienerdog Bogie. No prob. She gave me this photo: And I made it into these three pieces: Then I sprayed with Amanda counseling me on color choice: Amanda is going to go in with some sharpie tomorrow and add in some extra details.

I’ve lived in San Luis Obispo for five years now and just today went on my first wine tasting adventure. My friend Evan mapped out the voyage and his girlfriend Karina provided the giggles. I was surprised to see how down-to-earth everyone was. At one of our stops, the Castoro Cellars, there was a man [...]
To your left you will see the new addition to the site, the beat player. It’s a bit janky right now, but what do you expect? I’m teaching myself this CSS stuff. Funny, I make that statement yet I have a BS in journalism from Cal Poly… Anyways, the player will be updated whenever I [...]
