I’m starting a new project: Visual Pile (there’s only an uncoded mock-up of the site at the moment). It will essentially revolve about visual communication.. in an interesting way - I have yet to plan it all out.

So, it’s the end of the semester and I can’t believe I survived illustrative drawing. It was one of those classes that basically tore my self esteem into pieces. A huge chunk of the classmates were highly skilled in realism… whereas I was that student that couldn’t really draw. I remember going to the first few classes with Marta and we basically left EVERY class feeling like crap (for lack of a better word), doubting ourselves and our skills. Now that it’s over, I feel that we’ve all really improved with our drawing skills and most importantly: leaving with a clearer direction into knowing what needs to be improved Next step: illustrative drawing & painting.. never really painted full pieces before.. this will be the hardest challenge yet.

Yoko Ono - The Sun is Down! (Myra Phan Remix) Download

Maybe I’m not in the loop but I jumped into remixing Yoko Ono’s track without realizing it was filled with simply spoken words. It was a challenge.. I thought the original was a bit too disco-y and cheesy for my tastes, so I tried to bring it to more of an experimental/rock approach to it.. I’m not really happy with the end result though, oh well!

Listen go the original here: The Sun is Down
