Fixed.







Vince sent me a bunch of pics and some vids to try to convince me to buy a fixed gear bike since Derrick and himself each own one now. He keeps on telling me "just buy one! come on... summertime man!" Don't get me wrong, I DO want to buy one.. I just can't right now. maybe next year. I have to admit.. his repetitive egging on type tactics are slowly breaking the shield of my wallet... albeit that shield is as thin as tracing paper.

Pecha Kucha Vancouver: Matthew Miyagawa and Vince Chan
Pecha Kucha Vancouver: Matthew Miyagawa and Vince Chan
A couple months ago my friends Vince and Matt had the opportunity to present some of their work and thoughts at this Pecha Kucha event. This event included other artists, photographers, interior decorators, architects, designers, etc.. you get the point. Each presenter had 20 slides with 20 seconds each to speak of them. Check out this vid that Bruce Sharpe of 25 Hour Day produced. Its really well done.

Ye, then and now.
First up, we've got Spaceships a Kanye CLASSIC. He directed this video 4 years ago, but elected not to release it because he wasn't satisfied with it. Man, its true what he says.. he forgets things better than we can think of.
Next up, we've got the much anticipated Paranoid. This is the real deal, not the leaked version that everyone has peeped already.

2nd Best
Actually a lil worse than that, but only for now.
I recently applied for an Art Director position and went through the interview process and today the Creative Manager called me in to give me feedback. I didn't get the job. However, his feedback and grading system was thorough and for the most part very positive and encouraging. I scored quite high and it surprised him. It actually stroked my ego a bit (and that's saying a bunch coming from the most insecure, unconfident, introverted douche bag designer out there.. gaaawwd this self-degradation stuff is soo unhealthy). So I can't say that I'm entirely disappointed that I didn't get the job. Yes of course, a part of me thinks I deserve that job as much as any other candidate, but most of what I feel is a sense of movement. A sense of figuring things out for myself without having someone else hold my hand. A sense of grade. Yes a result. What matters to me the most these days is that I have results. That I've been putting in work for real and that what people think of my work matters to my growth in my career. We're not playing around anymore.. crossing my fingers all the time and just hoping that things work out in the end. This sh*t is real.. and it will work out in the end... because I am going to make it work.
