We've Moved.

As of this fall, Anika and I are back in New York. Feels so good to be home.

The Fast Set // Black Heart

Ok, so, as far as music goes, my time in California has been full of false starts. However, with the help of Patrice Scinta, Bryn Knowles and Raphi Gottesman, I was able to do a little recording for a new project, The Fast Set. 

Someone described the sound as "dirty rock" and I think let's just go with that.

Ever wonder about what will happen next? Wish you could see into your future? Have a hunch that there might just be a bit more to those whimsical little icons on your phone than you thought?

Huge SF & General Assembly Happy Hour

A few days ago, I hosted a talk and happy hour over at General Assembly in San Francisco. So much fun to discuss storytelling in the content strategy context and meet so many awesome SF content people.

Shotz SF

What happens when a surfer chick gets locked in a janitor's closet with a cowgirl and a noir dame? A play!

A Ridiculous Short Play About a Fire Alarm Set in A Janitor’s Closet Featuring Three Strong Female Leads was performed at The Tides Theater in SF as part of Shotz: Featuring a Strong Female Lead.

Dadstagram

My father emails my sister and I photos from his Blackberry. He does this a lot.

Hilariously, the content and update patterns of these emails began to seem familiar. They echoed a well-known mobile photo-sharing social network. There were sunsets. There was wildlife. There were tall buildings. Updates spiked when dad was traveling. The resemblance was uncanny.

So, my sister and I took to calling this Dad-Blackberry-Email-Photo-Feed-1.0 Dadstagram. Then, we realized we could actually make Dadstagram an Internet reality. So we decided to do so.

One Week One Band

I again had the distinct pleasure of contributing to One Week // One Band's annual end-of-the-year theme bash. This year's: Stop Making Sense.

I wrote about love, language, Stan Getz, Joao Gilberto, Ella, Brazillian bossa nova and good ol' American jazz.
