New Reel for 2010
I just finished cutting my new reel for 2010. It’s a mix of work from May 2009 until today.

I also included my work with Barney’s

The Most Important Dream
I had a dream last Friday that has had me thinking. It was one of those incredibly visceral dreams that feels so very real it was nearly impossible to discern whether I was asleep when I awoke. So riddle me this:

Janet Hansen : Fashion Engineer – VBS.TV
About a month ago I edited this piece for VBS/Motherboard about Janet Hansen. An amazing person who combined her love for art, fashion, and technology all into one. She randomly fell into making lighted clothing, built a little empire out of it, and now makes clothes for super stars like Daft Punk, Kanye West, and MIA. She’s had a blessed

The Popularity Myth and a Case for Mortality
There is a time and a place and a life for all living things. I’ve always had that statement in the back of my head somewhere. What I do is specifically what I want and or need to do. The results of which are what I end up receiving from the world.
So, if you ask me what I want
Sid Meier and the 48 Hour Game – VBS.TV
On Valentine’s Day this year I was far from my girlfriend at the University of Michigan, with fellow Poptenner Peter Brauer, filming legendary game designer, Sid Meier, build a game from scratch in 48 hours. It was at once enlightening and inspiring to learn about his process. Now it’s here for everyone to bask in Sid’s beneficence.

Training to be a Space Cadet?
There are a few common misconceptions on space travel.
#1 Intergalactic space travel is fun. It’s not. It’s terrifying, and your chances of survival drop significantly with the amount of wormholes you jump through. Most people discuss a loss of self after doing many jumps.

Eric Zimmerman and the Century of Play – VBS.TV
We hung out with Eric Zimmerman, and talked about the birth of indie gaming with him. He’s was an incredibly insightful person, and one who I’m excited to continue watching. He created the game Sissyfight back in 2000, started Gamelab, wrote the book “Rules of Play” (the game designer’s bible), teaches classes at NYU to this day, and designs games
