family collage

last month we celebrated my filipino grandparents 55th anniversary. relatives flew from around the country to join in festivities that inevitably involved dancing, musical performances, lots of food and booze, plus several family collages.

this is the final collage that i created on photoshop using some original photos and some sampled photos from two of my father's old collages.

this is a process shot.

these are samples of the collages he created in the mid-90's.

flavorpill fix

well the biggest news in the past four months is that "like sheep in the night" was featured on flavorpill's animation episode that aired online and on local television here in new york city.

you should take 25 minutes to watch the whole thing, because its all pretty badass. mark ronson's new video "circuit breaker" is sick!

as a tribute to our animation, here are some images of the set and process.

okay, that was unacceptable

i apologize to all of my devoted followers {thanks grandma} for putting up with my 4 month hiatus from the blogging world.

well the wait is over...

in the past 4 months i've come to realize that ongoing projects is going to be a kind of therapy for me, a ritualistic visual & auditory offering of myself, my partners in crime, my surroundings and their strangers.

with this effort, i hope to bring you raw, uncut gems amidst a bunch of cyber charcoal.

good luck to me...and i hope you enjoy.
