18 years ago.

Today is a bad day. I hate today. It’s been 18 years ago today that my mom passed away. 18 years is such a long time. If you really think about it. She has now been gone the exact amount of time that i knew her. I think about all the things she has missed in my life since her passing.

I am not a “everything happens for a reason”, type of guy. But on October 4th, 1994 my life changed and if 18 years ago I had written a note to myself… about my hopes and dreams. The person I would hope to become… I would have sold myself short. The person I actually became and the career I have today far surpasses what I would have hoped for myself 18 years ago. And i owe it all to her! She wanted better for me.

Here is the kicker! I would give it all up just to see her one more time. I just want to put my head in her lap, here her voice, hell i would even take a beating with the wooden spoon. I was a bad kid, and that was her weapon of choice.

So today is mothers day. Call your mom, tell her you love.

DESKTOP DUMPSTERS

I love these Desktop Dumpsters.

TV’s LOST ’80s point-and-click computer game

I love THIS!!! How TV’s LOST might look as a late ’80s point-and-click computer game, merging the interface of ‘Monkey Island’ (they’re both set on an island after all) with the earlier graphic style of titles like ‘Maniac Mansion’.

Really interesting visualization on how each campaign is managing their message in the digital space.

Two Photographers , One Roll of Film

This photographic collaboration between photographers Timothy Burkhart and Stephanie Bassos. This double exposure project allows them to step back from having full control of the image making process and trust in one another while allowing coincidences to happen naturally on film. Stephanie exposes a full roll of 35mm film of only “people,” and Timothy reloads the film again into the same camera, to imprint only “places” and locations to the same roll.
