A quick bit of good news: Google has selected me for their "world class" art and design directory where I'm now listed with Jeff Koons, Shepard Fairey, John Maeda, Radiohead, Paul Frank, etc.



You can set the theme for your Google home page to it here and then your background will change every hour.



The announcement on their official blog uses my artwork in the representative image.

The opening at 3LD in downtown Manhattan was covered by Make Magazine and is now on the front page of their blog. Thanks Phil!

On the East Coast there's one summer festival that's legendary for good vibes: Gaian Mind. I am pleased to announce that this year I'll be performing as a VJ on the main stage, and bringing the Electric Sheep's Dreams in High Fidelity as an installation for the downtempo stage. This is a multi-day outdoor camp-out in central Pennsylvania, my home state. I have a feeling about this one. The music headliners are amazing:



RASTALIENS,
BRAINCELL,
E.V.P,
REALITYGRID,
DIGITALIST,
TREAVOR MOONTRIBE,
AES DANA,
SOLAR FIELDS,
H.U.V.A. NETWORK,
MAHIANE.


Tickets:

Advanced - $110 (April 14th – June 8th),
Gate - $145* (June 18th – June 22nd).

Intel has a profile of me and the Electric Sheep up Intel.com. They have a whole collection of cool stuff in their new consumer oriented web site.

I'm damn pissed. The past week I have been having conniptions. I had a tight deadline on a commission with Per Bloland and After Effects kept erroring out with a nonsensical permission failure. WTF? I ended up taking my mac mini on the plane with me from NYC to SF because I had unavoidable travel and the project was stuck. Well I just found this explanation: new DRM checks gone bad. What are Apple's priorities??


update: somehow I missed this on Boing Boing 11 days ago. Does this mean I should be reading bb more??

I am flattered to announce 1000 pictures of yours truly produced by Günter Bachelier who says "portraits of the masterminds are transformed in one of my evolutionary art processes and motif individuals were generated for each of them." More of his work on flickr.
