some inspiration for my new portfolio
looks like right now i am into: neutral colors, serif fonts, centering, no full bleed images, strong grids, and tight spaces. i'm going to keep this in mind.
p.s. why do candles have the best graphics?

i just love these givenchy ads. some of the models are transgender. they are beautiful.

I spent the day with Gigi and Flynn, and Gigi wouldn't stop singing "Little Boxes" by Malvina Reynolds.

I love this video of her, Jack Elliott, and Pete Seeger. It reminds me of my parents and growing up in Minneapolis.

The Perennial Plate

I have no pictures to put up, and I can't figure out how to put up a video. The website is much more exciting. Also check out this website, http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/588580164/the-perennial-plate-weekly-web-series-about-sustai

Hi, my name is Daniel Klein. I'm a chef, a filmmaker and an activist.... and I'm making a documentary series about sustainable and adventurous food in Minnesota. Imagine if Michael Pollan, that guy from Man vs. Wild, and Mario Batalli teamed up to make a show -- they would create something like The Perennial Plate.

The episodes follow the culinary, agricultural and hunting explorations that I embark on weekly. Taking place over a calendar year in Minnesota, as well as the surrounding food source destinations, this show takes the viewer on a journey to appreciate and understand where good food comes from and how to enjoy it.

What we eat is becoming more and more important and The Perennial Plate offers a free and entertaining source of alternatives to the factory farm.

There is currently a trailer online www.theperennialplate.com and I have several episodes waiting to air. Because the videos are free, I could use your help.

So donate or not, but please make sure to watch the videos, spread the word and eat well!

Thanks

that video reminds me of this terence koh show i saw in la when i was there a few summers ago. i didn't have a car so i was just walking everywhere and taking the subway and i remember it took me 3 hours to walk to the gallery so seeing this show was the only thing i did the entire day. the basement was filled with corn starch. i was the only person there and i just remember how squeaky the corn starch was.

Have you been here? Flowers might be the most beautiful, unbelievable things on earth. I love how they have like a branch of clementines, lemons, currants, and other berries in their bouquets.

so i was looking at the internet this morning while i ate my breakfast and i started somehow reading about this sailboat made of plastic bottles that is traveling south from sf to who knows where. remember when we were at that show when i was in mpls and we saw tommy dixon and he told us he was building a boat made of plastic bottles? maybe he just told me this. anyways, here is a picture of tommy dixon on his plastic bottle boat, sailing.

SURPRISE!
