Caught on Video
Click here to see a short video Eric Nakamura put together recently which shows me mumbling away in my studio. After sitting through it I am surprised to find that I come off both more eccentric and more dull than I usually think of myself. I like the Goh Nakamura song, and props to Eric for putting together something out of all that nothing.

FUNNY (not funny) at WORK.DETROIT -- January 24th -- February 26th
I'll have a piece in the FUNNY (not funny) group show at University of Michigan's School of Art and Design Work-Detroit Gallery. The show will center around the exploration of black and absurd humor and it sounds like it will deliver with some awfully funny stuff. I wish I could go see this myself. You should go, even if you don't live near Detroit. It's probably worth the trip. Here's the stellar cast.
