introduction 2.0 (or is it 1.2?)

Ok, so just now I had a good idea for this blog, seeing as that right now its pointless. Here's my idea. Each post will include a link or article on design (graphic, industrial, intelligent), a music artist or article I find interesting, and one dumb thing that either occured in my life or found on the information super highway. word? alright.

post number 1...

MUSIC

St. Vincent.


She's a multi-instrumentalist that has played with Sufjan Stevens and the Polyphonic Spree, and right now my current obsession. Her songs move from layered choruses to noise rock to beautiful pop, yet remain cohesive and original throughout the whole album. My favorites are "now, now" "paris is burning" and "apocolypse song", although if I was able to write any of songs on the album I'd probably wet myself in glee. Live (and by live I mean youtube videos) she's just as impressive. Using only a guitar and stomping on a box that is triggered to a drum machine thing, she breaks the songs down, yet composes them to have the same fullness and atmosphere as the album. I'm done with this. check her out.


DESIGN

Open Studio


Socially concious, and creative. WORD. I'll add to this later.


DUMB




I think he's drinking that new Coke Black drink.
