Wait, what?

Somehow, I agreed to work on the new mascot for my institution of higher learning.
I am not an illustrator.
What was I thinking?

A first draft of the balm bomb

An idea from Boston.

"Someone set up us the balm"

Not just because I agree with it, but because I think it's well done. I especially like the use of green.

As is my custom, I'll be in Glastonbury from now (Dec 21) until Dec 26th. If anyone is able to get together, lemmie know. If folks are all staying in Boston, let me know that, too: I'll visit.

So it's a brand.
For a group that doesnt exist.
If any y'all want to use this logo to do some musical good - and thus make this group exist - let me know.

EDIT -- There's something inside, too. Oh look, revisions! I hunger for critique!

The phrase has stuck with me for years, but I never had the image for it till now.

EDIT - I don't even need to mention that there's alternate versions inside, do I? Thoughts are solicited, as ever.

What is the color family of irony?

EDIT --
You know the drill by now. Alternate version inside. Thoughts?

Sketch

A quick sketch for "The Mask of Thoreau". Thoughts?

EDIT -- There's another in the comments. This may be an Old Elvis / Young Elvis problem.

The future history of internet news

I'm not sure when this was made, but it's interesting.

Thoughts?

Not sure if it's clear enough.

There's an improved version in the comments.

An idea! I want a social network debate website!

I want a site where registered users can debate an issue so that the structure of the debate is apparent. You'd start with a controversial position (e.g. "The war in Iraq was launched in bad faith,") and users would be able to make pro and con arguments that would be displayed in a tree hierarchy, with each argument spawning its own argument children.

Using dhtml, or some other sort of interwebnet magic like they do for Google maps, you'd be able to zoom in or out to see the whole argument represented as a cluster of nodes or zoom in to read any node's summary (user provided) or its full text. Each node would have it's own hyperlink footer space for citations.

And I'd like a pony, since I'm asking.

Caution, Future Ahead.

Attention Photobucket Users

Tue, 10 Oct 2006 21:14:23 GMT

Photobucket is totally compromised.
None of your images are protected from view.
If there's anything in your account you don't want the whole internet to see, delete it now.
I'm not forwarding a source because I don't think this is general information yet, but I can personally confirm that viewing all photos on an arbitrary account is trivial.

Paris Fashion week. Not Safe For Work - Animatronic Clothing
"Fashion designer Hussein Chalayan premiered his Spring/Summer 2007 collection this week, and it's full of Swarovski-crystal-embellished animatronic couture. The clothes wriggle, unfold, collapse, and transform by themselves. The final act in Chalayan's show, at left: this piece began as a dress, morphed into a hat, then rained down as a cloud of Swarovski crystal dust. Hot." - Boing Boing

The fun starts in the second half of the video.
