During the day, I work for an advertising agency in Chicago designing and developing interactive marketing for major consumer brands. I'm also a creative thinker, wannabe animator and occasional film maker.
As I go through my day, my thoughts, ideas and interests slip in and out of focus. This is an attempt to capture some of those things - in whatever form they may take.
Or not.
Ah, HTML5… It’s 1999 all over again. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, a web browser should be more like a television set. They must support and implement standards equally or what is the point.

Here is an overproduced short film of a cat named Archie as he takes shower. Archie is obsessed with water and takes a shower everyday. He believes cleanliness is next to catliness.

Came across this screen capture from about a month ago on my desktop. I thought it was funny.
Dear Oracle,
Some friendly advice. If you are actually paying ad agency money for that shit, not only are being ripped off by the agency doing the work but your marketing team is incompetent. It’s time to fire your CMO and get a new agency.

Love it or hate it, Adobe Flash isn’t going anywhere. It’s just evolving. And this is a big step in it’s evolution. Epic Games the makers of Gears of War series and the Unreal Engine which powers dozens of AAA games, announced that Unreal Engine 3 now has support for Flash Player 11. Adobe and Epic demoed a Flash based version of Unreal Tournament 3 during Adobe MAX.
Pretty effin’ cool. I can’t believe I missed this announcement.
This reminds me of a series of paintings I did twenty years ago. Might have to revisit.
