New Work in the Wild.

Some shoes we worked on just popped up the Wilson site.

New Work in the Wild.

Just saw some of our work out there. Had a lot of layers going on in this one.

Not a lot of posting going on here as I am drastically limiting my time on the internet. It’s just changed into a AI slop machine now. Look up, “Dead internet theory” and I do believe that is the new reality. It’s AI spewing AI now. Anyways….. the internet I loved and have been blogging on for years is no more and it kinda makes me sad.

Extended Interview: Jeff Tweedy

In this web exclusive, Jeff Tweedy, front man of the rock group Wilco, talks with correspondent Anthony Mason about his solo project, a triple album called "Twilight Override."

The Thousand Faces of Cassian Andor

“Hollywood script doctor Tony Gilroy had finally decided to write his friend Kathleen Kennedy, the president of Lucasfilm, a long-overdue letter; one that took the experiment that he, Gareth Edwards, and the cast and crew of Rogue One had started years ago to the next level. A radical pitch that framed the Star Wars Galaxy as the backdrop for a story about a revolutionary in-the-making, set upon a collision-course with history, destiny, and the unrelenting forces of Imperial oppression.”

The making of Z by My Morning Jacket - featuring Jim James

Really interesting interview that made me go back and give this one a deeper listen.

“For the 20th anniversary of the fourth My Morning Jacket album, we take a detailed look at how it was made. The band originally formed in 1998 in Louisville, Kentucky by Jim James, Johnny Quaid, Tom Blankenship and J. Glenn. After signing with Darla Records, they released their debut album, The Tennessee Fire in 1999. Danny Cash joined on keyboards before the release of their second album, At Dawn, in 2001. Patrick Hallahan took over on drums as they signed to ATO Records. Their third album, It Still Moves, was released in 2003. At this point, Johnny Quaid and Danny Cash decided to leave the band so they held auditions and recruited Bo Koster and Carl Broemel. For their fourth album, they hired producer John Leckie and began recording outside of their home studio for the first time. Z was eventually released in 2005.”

Poster adaptation: “Tōfu-kozō (tofu boy)” yōkai

Found this cool little dude looking up old wood prints and figured I’d spin out a band poster from it. It’s a “Tōfu-kozō (tofu boy)” yōkai which could easily be a skateboard graphic from the 80s. Super fun.

“In Japanese folklore, tōfu-kozō (Japanese: 豆腐小僧, literally "tofu boy") is a yōkai that looks like a child holding a tray of tōfu.

They are generally depicted wearing bamboo and kasa on their heads, and possessing a round tray with a momiji-dōfu on it (a tōfu with a momiji (autumn leaf) shape pressed into it[6]). The patterns on the clothing they wear, for the sake of warding off smallpox, include lucky charms such as harukoma (春駒), daruma dolls, horned owls, swinging drums, and red fish, and sometimes lattice patterns of the child that shows its status as a child can also be seen.”

How do we navigate our derangement of scale?

“The confusion may come from what the writer Timothy Clark calls “derangements of scale.” Our experiences as modern global humans, Clark writes, are like being “lost in a small town” and then handed a map of the entire earth for locating yourself and finding your way. In the Anthropocene, he writes, “we have a map, [and] its scale includes the whole earth, but when it comes to relating the threat to daily questions of politics, ethics, or specific interpretations of history, culture, literature, etc., the map is often almost mockingly useless.” Our scales are too imbalanced; we are unable to think the unthinkable. It goes without saying that it can be paralyzing, demoralizing, to be an individual acting as part of the collective, globe-sized world.” - by B. R. Cohen

We are living in a time of polycrisis. If you feel trapped – you’re not alone

“We are living in a time of polycrisis. If you feel trapped – you’re not alone

I hadn’t fully grasped how the idea of a better future sustained me – now I, like many others, find it difficult to be productive.

...

“What feels very different in the present moment,” Hershfield said, “is that it feels like it’s coming from multiple fronts. It’s everything from political uncertainty in the US and elsewhere, health insecurity from the very fresh memory of a global pandemic, job insecurity from AI, geopolitical insecurity, to environmental insecurity.”

All these crises are happening contemporaneously, and because they interact with each other, their effects pile up. Social scientists refer to these stacked crises as a polycrisis. During a polycrisis, radical uncertainty becomes rife.

The lack of predictability creates more doubt about the future, which blocks our ability to imagine ourselves in it.” - by Theresa MacPhail
