What are you interested in now?

Photography, I can’t wait to brake in the new digital camera at the studio!
For the cover I used a wide angle lens combined with a macro filter kit on my manual Minolta camera. No digital photography here, I wanted it to be captured through the classic macro kit. It’s rad!

There is so much visual wealth available to us in such a short distance, especially in L.A. For instance, take the petal image I used on the cover, it is just a small token of what mother nature has created for us. There is so much more! Go look for yourself.

Who are your favorite visual/graphic designers and sites?

insomnious.com: cause ANT doesn’t sleep, which gives him more time to work as we doze off. I wish I were insomnious too.

paradox.com and h73.com: cause Mat is so cool. He is so open minded about all of us, and supports our community through exposure.

Way designgraphik.com: Mike Young is design, he lives and sleeps it. And I bet he eats it too. Pushing experimental thoughts in the direction needed.Whasuuuuuuuuup!

greyscale.net: cause there is something about absorption of design, and applying in in a way you see fit. Check it out. Republic style.

endogenous.org: cause Rick is has a gun, and uses it. (check the site to see what I mean by that)

The last question. Do you have any plans for the near future?

I live my life day to day… Though I hope to live a long and true life with my wife Amber and child, time and nature are so unpredictable. So as the day comes I smile, and live it out to it’s fullest. And not to mention I drink all the gatorade in the refrigerator at the studio, ha! Oh yes! Cakes!

As for something I would like to do in the future, maybe hit Fiji this summer and check the reef passes, and Japan if you want to meet me my wife and I face to face Mayumi. Buy me lunch! Hehe.

Open your mind everyone.
