Hey guys, if you are in or around Brooklyn on Saturday, December 10th, please stop by 3rd Ward‘s annual Handmade Holiday Craft Fair. This is my first year as a vendor and I am excited to be sharing a table with my good friend and creator of HerbanLuxe handmade organic cosmetics. I will be displaying my new line of Danger wall art, prints, resin jewelry and screen print tshirts. It will be a warehouse full of unique items and great holiday sales by many different local artists. Come check it out, visit us and say hi!

New to the Danger Studio as of this weekend, is a really cool collection of handmade Danger pendents!
This is my first attempt at making jewelry out of my designs and I’m really stoked with it’s transformation. I took my Wanderlost collection of graphics and cropped them into 1 inch circles, then obsessively cut out 50 small prints. Each of them is affixed to silver plated pendents, and finished with a glass dome enclosure. The work becomes a magnified orb of bright color, and each is completely unique from the next.
Later this week I’m going to attempt another round using resin as the finishing glaze. I’ve been using resin over the last year on all my wall art, which gives it a glossy glass finish so I’m excited to see if I can bring the same great results to jewelry.
Next up are a batch of rings! All will be available on etsy once I’m happy with the collection. Stay tuned!
Hey guys! This Saturday, October 8, from 8PM-2AM, will be the third Signal to Noise event at the Museum of the Moving Image.
I’m super excited to be invited back and Jeff and I will be once again outfitting the place with 6-7 projectors filling their performance space. I’ve been busy in my studio creating new materials, testing new equipment and getting ready for this epic set-up. Hope to see some of you there. We’ll be working with a number of other visualists that evening and will be VJing for MiniBoone.
Here is some additional info from the museum’s event page:
Signal to Noise once again takes over the entire Museum of the Moving Image with interactive spectacles and visual delights, including electro-jams, post-rave vibes, circuit-bent video, shadow game tournaments, battling guitar video game contests, and much more as the galleries stay open late and the party goes later.
DIY rock superstars Anamanaguchi command the stage with high-energy low-res anthems, kicked-off by Extreme Animals‘ preposterous video/music explosions, MiniBoone’s raucous tunes with eyecandy from Holly Danger, and Landlady’s catchy experimental rock. LoVid blasts video noise from handmade hardware, and Modal Kombat duels on acoustic guitars-turned-game controllers.
Chill out to Smooth Breeze‘s easy-listening jazz and creamy screensavers, and beat out the competition during an all-night tournament of Shadowplay, the live-action puzzle game you play with your shadow. Luck You Collective, easylife, and Strongbros hold down the lobby with ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE, featuring Burger Sundae, Girlbro, Beatsaface, and Latitude Zero on the decks.
Co-curated by Jason Eppink, Assistant Curator of Digital Media, and Anamanaguchi.
Open bar from 8:00 p.m.–9:00 p.m., sponsored by Reyka and Samuel Adams. Cash bar follows.Coolhaus and Big D’s Grub Truck parked out front.

Last Friday morning I got on the early train to Roseland Ballroom for the 2nd birthday of New York’s finest and freshest motion graphics design conference  F5 Fest. I was lucky enough to attend back in 2009 for it’s first installation and having had such an inspiring experience I signed up to attend again. It is seriously amazing to be in a room with all your heros and surrounded by so many creative folks. F5 has proven to be one of the most intimate conferences I’ve been to. It’s an intelligent mix of artists, designers, art directors, vjs, scientists, technologists, film makers and musicians. They even set up scheduled drink breaks in between speakers so that everyone can meet and hang out. Doesn’t get better than that!

Thanks to all who dropped by our little last minute art opening over at the Kriti Collection Boutique last Tuesday! My wall art & Paradox Ink’s screenprints/shirts, as well as my Danger t-shirts will be up for viewing and for sale from now through the month of January 2011. If you’re local to Greenwich CT you can stop by the shop at 39 Lewis Street.
It was really quite a cool experience to see my collection up on the walls of this beautiful boutique. A total first for me and for the work that I’ve produced at the Danger Studio this year! As a result of this show, and my now bare walls at the studio, I have purchased a whole new round of wood boards for a brand new collection of work to design!
Here are a few snapshots from the boutique on opening night!  Check back here next month regarding a possible closing party at the shop. (Click the images below to view them larger…)

Hi Everybody! Â I have a last minute announcement to make regarding an exciting collaborative art show happening this week.
This Tuesday, December 7th, I’ll be exhibiting my mixed media collage work & Danger t-shirts alongside Liz Squillace’s Paradox Ink line of screenprints at the Kriti Collection Boutique in Greenwich, CT. The opening party will be happening from 5:30-8:30 pm and the work will be featured at the shop for the next few weeks.
If you are in the neighborhood please stop by and grab a drink with us! There will be drinks & refreshments provided, live music and plenty of unique art, shirts, clothes & accessories.
Thanks to all who dropped by the Danger Studio this weekend!! I had a great time meeting everyone & sharing what goes on behind closed doors. The gallery wall outside the studio featured over 20 original mixed media collage prints on wood. Inside the studio we had two huge walls moving and interacting with live projections, and special for Open Studios we just launched our first of two Danger t-shirt designs, printed by Paradox Ink!
The shirts are now available on the Etsy Danger store. Â The mixed media wall prints will be available on Etsy next week!!
In other news, if you are interested in coming out to see one of the next upcoming performances scheduled, there is a nice variety for you to choose from!

The summer is in full swing, my blog has been quiet for the last few weeks, and I’ve been struggling to nail down one big opening date for my studio party – HOWEVER, I finally decided to set it in motion and see what happens!
Next weekend I’ll be having an official open studio night, Saturday, August 7th, featuring multi-projector live video mixing, and a poster exhibit displaying my new design series. Â It is a private party, so please, if you are interested in coming – Email me to RSVP.
If you can’t make the opening party on the 7th, you’ll be happy to know that another date is also potentially in the works for a Kodomo show on Saturday, August 21st. Hope everyone is having an adventurous and creative summer!! Â See you soon.
After every trip, I am immediately fueled into an active wanderlust, longing to go somewhere else…
I always come up with the most visual ideas when I’m outside my routines and experiencing different cultures, conversations and vibrations of people in other places. Traveling is something I became obsessed with years ago when I first started designing. Having only been back in town for a week, I can happily say that Austin sparked a new light for me. It’s the beginning of spring and the beginning months of my studio. There are good energies all around, exciting shows on the way and hopefully more travel in the near future. New visuals on the way!
