Some jobs don’t work out for whatever reason, and this is one of those. However, I like the design, and wanted to post the mock-ups here. » Read on »
SmartGuy Records Redesign That Wasn’t
UC Berkeley French Department
My friend and colleague Stefan Gutermuth and I rebuilt the French Department’s website this summer, making some substantial changes top to bottom. You can view it here.
We’ve done work together before, and most of it has been for UCB sites. This one is a step up on several fronts. » Read on »
Cielito Lindo Apartment Building
The Cielito Lindo Apartment complex sits across Park Boulevard from me, tucked behind some other buildings. Without knowing where it is, you probably wouldn’t find it. » Read on »
David C. Lowery in Furs
Much has been made of Dave “Cracker” Lowery’s open letter in response to an NPR blog post recently. The contrast between these two points of view says a lot about the music industry, and how it earned it’s timely demise. » Read on »
Jane Fisher, Artist
Finally finished giving my lovely and talented wife’s website a redo that’s been a long time coming. Now you can finally see the images on a larger scale, sort them, browse them, and keep up with what she’s doing.
The Gas Pumps of Pahrump
If you’re ever in Pahrump, Nevada (maybe you’re visiting Art Bell, one of the brothels near his place, or just there for a little wine tasting), I suggest you stop by the place with the Free Yard Sale sign out front. I don’t know what that means, either, but he’s got a lot of cool stuff to take pictures of.
Open Marketing, Other Projects
Whew – it’s been a few months since I’ve posted any work here. Part of that’s because I’ve been working on finishing off the film (ALMOST THERE!), part of that is because I’ve been too damn busy to document what I’ve been up to. » Read on »

PRF Record Cover Photo Shoot
The Electrical Audio forum is a place I virtually hang out at a lot. It’s a unique place, full of extremely intelligent people from a wide swath of backgrounds.
A few months ago, a group of people from the forum decided to put out a quarterly series of records featuring some of the bands who hang out there. » Read on »

The Creekside Inn and Resort
Yes it has been a long time since I posted. For someone who spends much of his professional time building blogs and encouraging those for whom he builds them to post actively and often, taking almost 2 months off between posts is not good form. I’ve, uh, been busy. Do as I say, not as I do.
Anyway, I’m sticking my head up quickly to post a link to the new Creekside Inn and Resort website. » Read on »
The Blind Shake, shaking
As far as I’m concerned, this is the greatest live band going these days. » Read on »

Why I’m Supporting Rebecca Kaplan
If you know me, you know how deeply I love and care about Oakland. This is not just where I live, it’s my home. You also probably know how dissatisfied I’ve been with our local government. You may even have been treated to a slobbering hell-in-a-hand-basket rant on the subject (sorry about that). » Read on »

Domino’s Stops Screwing Cheese
Domino’s Pizza has been trying to convince you that they are no longer a big, insensitive corporation who does a lousy job of creating products and will cut any corner if it benefits the bottom line. Whatever. » Read on »
