My name spelled out with satellite imagery from all over the planet.

Fun little thing from NASA. Spell out your name (or any word) with Landsat imagery! https://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/apps/YourNameInLandsat-main/  #nasa #science #landsat

A zoomed in shot of the man standing over his base, the temple to the lower left. It is dusk and the dust is hovering in stillness just above the playa. Citizens ride their bikes in all directions. Some heading home for dinner, others heading out for a night of adventure.

It happened again. A city built on imagination rose from the dust and, as of now, lives only in our memories…and photos…but mostly memories. It continues to be an indescribable week in the desert. The event is not perfect and the people there are, well, people in all of the ways but it is still the social and creative reboot I crave. See you next year Black Rock City. #burningman #blackrockcity #brc2024

On July 5, 1852, Frederick Douglass was invited to address the citizens of his hometown, Rochester, New York. Whatever the expectations of his audience on that 76th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Douglass used the occasion not to celebrate the nation’s triumphs but to remind all of its continuing enslavement of millions of people. Douglass’s speech appears below.

(1852) Frederick Douglass, “What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth Of July”

Graphics promoting Imagi-ne'er Do Wells for July 2024.

Big thanks to Brett Jackson for having me as the Master of Merriment to Diana O’Rourke‘s venerable celebrity judge-ness! It was a delightful night of zero-G (and not so zero-G) concepting fun and frivolity. If you’re in Los Angeles and you have a moment, do not miss your chance to attend an Imagi-Ne’er-Do-Wells (also here) gathering currently hosted at The Obscure in downtown LA. #losangeles #imagineerdowells #theobscure

A photo of California Narrow leaf Milkweed with a monarch butterfly on the flowers.

This past Saturday we had the pleasure of volunteering with Project Monarch LA at the Los Angeles State Historic Park to plant native California Narrow Leaf Milkweed in the north end of the park. Highly recommend joining them for future planting (and weeding of invasive species). #milkweed #monarchs #losangeles

I had the privilege to write out some thoughts on generative AI and what it means for the creative community for The Bezark Company. The article is published here:
