Just Do It China

 

slow is beautiful

I love this. 

 

I love this.

And so does my wife. Because she loves the Old Spice Man. And so does Mary, my daughter. Because she loves Grover.

In response to Chris. The game goes on.

bet you didn't know # 22

This is my first video "bet you didn't know". But it's a good one.
In an earlier post I used a Frank Gehry quote to illustrate how creative inspiration can come from anywhere. Jenna made a brilliant post on her blog about very much the same thing using this video of Tinker Hatfield, the nike shoe designer who was inspired by the exposed guts of a modern Paris building resulting in the creation of the first exposed air bubble in a shoe.

Year of the Pig

Jenna & Chris were generous enough to give me a front row ticket to this year's Chinese New Year Parade. Amazing. I thought I'd share with a quick video here, but I have to admit, the moment of the night wasn't caught on film. Gavin Newsom, now our slightly infamous SF Mayor, was strolling by and Chris & Jenna put him on the spot for a handshake.

creative inspiration

If you haven't seen Sketches of Frank Gehry, you should. I grabbed this low-quality clip from the DVD by using my digital camera – "low-quality" being the operative word. But I think you can hear the quote. Frank talks about creative inspiration, and that it can come from the most mundane of places. It's all about the way you see something.
