Beauty is at the top of our list.  And it's that time of year.  After a summer that should've been a little more beachy, Drupalism put us through the wringer.  Now it's time to hit the cozy dry cycle and live life a little more spacious and gracious.  I've been putting together proposals and am particularly psyched for upcoming work with **more** dancers and **even more** designers.

I've also had a couple super inspiring gigs getting to animate a lot of deep sea footage from the shallow depths of the Shedd.  First with Jonathan Guilllen and his Ableton magic at the Really Reel film fest.  And next with my Bright Beat babe, Stephanie Katsaros and her beau Matt Swift as they celebrated togetherness with Mas Trueno at Bottom Lounge.  I've gotten to explore Resolume and on-the-fly style adorned with natures most beautiful translucence and bio-luminescence:  Jellyfish.  And dancers.

The deep sea magic is also ebbing its way into an upcoming iPad release.  It just can't get here soon enough.  Andrew Ritter (awesome writer from Second City) is paving the way with some colorful accounts of more togetherness ... this time on the reef.  And Robs is making it way beautiful on his Ratiofarm. 

The Hideout Block Party is today.  Get toasty.  Andrew Bird will be there.
