Guiltiest Pleasure Ever

Tunes!


Lately I've been obsessing over the sounds of Chromeo. I saw them play at Lollapalooza over the summer and they did their stage show with keyboards like the ones on their album cover. Delicious electrofunk. 

50 Amazing Gig Posters


A little inspiration from some great musicians...worth looking at and listening to.

Slumdog Millionaire

I've been talking-up this movie since my visit to Telluride. Danny Boyle is an amazing filmmaker and this is yet another movie of his with a riveting plot, beautiful cinematography, and a fantastic soundtrack. 

Watch (and listen) to his other stuff: Trainspotting, The Beach, 28 Days Later, Millions, Sunshine...

Why Are You Creative?


While reading the Marty Nemeier book, ZAG, I came across a quote that reminded me of my zany advertising teacher from FH-Trier in Germany – Hermann Vaske. The quotation was "...CEOs say they know half of their advertising money is wasted – they just don't know which half..." and Mr. Vaske used that quotation in one of his films, "The A-Z of Separating People from Their Money."  

He's worth checking out: http://www.hermannvaske.com.
