…So this ‘blog’ is back on ‘Tumblr.’ Sorry for the pointless reposts of other people’s content, I’ll try to keep this mostly work-related.
(I have actually maintained a commonplace book/blog, mainly for repurposing other people’s posts, but I’m not ready to share that yet)
Carry on.
If you’re looking for something uplifting and indescribably delightful then you need look no further. Photographer Michael S. Den Beste takes beautiful photos and then elevates them to joyful awesomeness by using photoshop to insert Bill Watterson’s beloved cartoon characters Calvin and Hobbes into the scenes.
We always wished we could play with Calvin and Hobbes. These wonderful images make us feel like we’ve just taken a big step towards making that wish come true and we can’t stop smiling. Visit Michael S. Den Beste’s website to view more.

Can — The Lost Tapes
I know, I pretty much only use this ‘blog’ to post top records lists. Oh well. This year, instead of stopping at an arbritrary number, I counted up all the albums from 2012 that I’ve added to my 10gb ‘favorites’ playlist that gets synced with my iPhone. Obviously that list is mostly older albums, and space is tight, so it has to be a damn good record to get added. Here are the 26 that made it this year, ranked for your convenience:
26. Grizzly Bear - Shields
25. Sun Araw x Congos - Icon Give Thanks
24. Captain Murphy - Duality
23. Ty Segall - Slaughterhouse

Just found out that the Chevy Game Time app won a Cannes Gold Lion in the newly-created Mobile category. Everyone that worked on this was awesome, let’s do it again next year guys!
A couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of dropping in on Danielle Aubert’s Graphic Design 3 class at Detroit’s Wayne State University. I met some really cool students and saw some really cool work. Below is a small sampling of some of the projects, which were loosely based on the theme of machines.
Unfortunately I didn’t get the names of any of the students who made the above work, so please, if you’re one of them, don’t hesitate to contact me and I’ll add it.
Noted DJ and all-around bad dude Mick Boogie made this killer official mixtape of Nas x the Roots for Madden Bowl and contacted me about making the cover. Really happy with how everything turned out, I think it looks and sounds great. You can download this thing here for free, or check out Mick’s mixtape-streaming site, mixstream.com
