Just updated with a bunch of work from the last six months. Added a mini Motion section that will be added to in time. Waiting for a few things to be released first.
Neojaponisme just launched. It is a new online magazine edited byDavid Marx, Jean Snow, and myself. It will be a regular compendium of writing on culture, history, and design, as well as featuring new work by artists and illustrators. I’ll be making editorial graphics/illustrations regularly, as well, and it’s been great so far- a series of same-size illustrations using the same color palette and deconstructed typography. Those will start rolling out tomorrow with a series of articles.

Still never gonna be able to update. It’s like Struggle Inc. up in here!
Just finished the identity for Nke SB Films, who are about to drop their first release, Nothing But the Truth– the most anticipated skate film since Yeah Right.
Also, congratulations to LePigeon for being chosen as the top restaurant in the Pacific Northwest by Bon Appetit magazine!
Recently completed this video for WKTokyoLab’s instrumental hiphop duo Hifana, as well as contributing to the packaging/identity design for the “Connect” CD+DVD.
Thanks to Charlotte, Simon, Matt, and Simon for a rad stay in the UK!! Whooo!
Never going to be be able to update!!
I posted a bunch of new video work here. It includes all of the PDX Film Fest videos, including the web debut of the 2007 bumper, and a PSA for GOOD Magazine on Electronic Waste.
In progress: identity for Nike, mini-documentaries for GOOD Magazine, Rap-Up’s latest issue, identity for Robin Frank Management, websites for Indecent Exposure, Shine Advertising and Cardinal Communications, as well as a bunch of other stuff…
I am currently designing a certain design and cultural criticism publication that will be launching shortly, as well. More on that in a week or two.
Too busy to update still. The former Beautiful/Decay font is now the house font for YACHT, one of my favorite musicians in Portland. I made an identity suite for him recently including a fancy insignia, the typeface, and some other goodies to be revealed later on down the road.
Finishing up this year’s Portland Documentary and eXperimental Film Fest stuff now… go see the shows!!!
Busy busy busy. Proper update won’t happen for a while- big things going on. New article here.
Kyle Evan Lynam R.I.P. You are missed.
I had a type design experiment, a bit of writing, and some work I designed published recently in the book 30 Essential Typefaces for a Lifetime. I can’t really vouch for the book, as I haven’t seen a copy, yet, but I hope so. Cyrus Highsmith, Akira Kobayashi, Wolfgang Weingart, Matthew Carter, and Josh Berger all have writing in there, as well, so I have high hopes that it’s rad.
In Sapporo for the Snow Festival. Just amazing.
Graniph just released my first sweatshirt design for them- a vintage-feel weathered velour pullover crewneck with a gold and black embroidered crest on the chest. Hot, hot, hot.
Just finished a music video for O. Lamm, whose new album just came out on Audio Dregs. E*Rock is on tour, so the video won’t go up on their site for a while. For the folks who actually check out this site on occasion, I have posted it here.
New article up over on PingMag titled “Toward Design Literacy:Essential Graphic Design Literature”.
Also, two new fonts of mine are available via Wordshape. The first is called Inversion and the second is called Vorganger Grotesk. Both are revivals of old German lettering.
