BRAIN WAVES IN NEW YORK MAG

Brain Waves, my first long-term curatorial project, is mentioned in this week's New York magazine. Check out Ashlea Halpern's article "The Analog Underground" on newsstands now.

Plus! Kind of neat that the Brooklyn Art Library's "Sketchbook Project" collection is the feature photo for this article. As you may remember, I contributed to the Sketchbook Project back when Art House Co-op was based in Atlanta. You can see most of the images from my submission on my website.

LAST NIGHT OUT-OF-TOWN

So The Sketchbook Project Volume 3 finally calls it quits tonight after a semi-national tour. Tonight is the opening party for FROM SCRATCH, which is a show I guess I'm technically in. Funny how that works. Here is the info from Shane and Steven of Art House Co-op:

The Sketchbook Project at Chicago Art Source Gallery Tonight

Friday, May 8th (tonight!)
6:00-9:00pm
Chicago Art Source Gallery
1871 N. Clybourn Ave
Chicago, IL 60614

Tonight is the final exhibition for The Sketchbook Project Volume 3. It is hosted at Chicago Art Source Gallery in Chicago, IL. The opening is from 6:00-9:00pm. The exhibition will be on display through June 20th.

As much as I was pretty removed from this project and its 2,784 other artists, I did get to check out the whole thing at 3rd Ward in Brooklyn and it was a pretty great event. If you're in Chicago, you should definitely check it out!

Another note: my dear friend Aimee Lusty - whom I used to live with and majorly helped smooth out my senior thesis ideas (all while laying down some serious Darger knowledge) - has JUST BEGUN blogging for the Marcel Duchamp World Community online. I think it's pretty rad. Congrats Aimee!

THE SKETCHBOOK PROJECT

Officially launched Friday night, 2/27. There was a live broadcast. You can check out photos over at the Art House Coop's flickr. My sketchbook is in there somewhere! Remember, it's coming to Brooklyn March 13th. Come see, before you go to the Propagandhi show.

THE SKETCHBOOK PROJECT / GHOSTS

Two things.

1. I entered The Sketchbook Project. It's going to be at 3rd Ward in Brooklyn on MARCH 13TH. Save the date, dudes! I am not the proudest of my creations but that's partially because I was working on a short time line / the wrong, sooner deadline. No apologies. You can find my entries here, on my flickr.

2. Marked Men "Ghosts" is ABSOLUTELY going to be on my tops for 2009. It has yet to leave my turntable, save for Neil Young at dinner.
