Wisdom’s a gift, but you’d trade it for youth

Vampire Weekend – Step
Vampire Weekend – Diane Young
Vampire Weekend – Obvious Bicycle

I hate agreeing with Pitchfork out of principle, but I gotta hand it to them – they hit the nail on the head with this review for Vampire Weekend’s new album “Modern Vampires of the City”. This 9.3 rating puts them on the same level as the Beach Boy’s Pet Sounds. It is truly fantastic, truly a f*!$ing piece of art. It’s everything Vampire Weekend, but it’s also so much more. If you’ve already overplayed Daft Punk, I highly recommend closing your eyes and letting Ezra Koenig’s angelic voice taking over.

Remember the days when we were singing Horchata in the hot summer sun? Shit, I feel old.

Other notable album releases: Portugal. The Man’s Evil Friends

Design Inspiration No. 1


A part of my design work process involves constantly searching for new design inspiration. My friends have always said that I have a very “disctint” style, so much that they can spot my work out in public spaces without knowing that I was involved in the project. It’s great that they know me so well, but I am afraid of my work feeling manufactured, as if my eye recycles elements and recreates the same designs in different ways. It’s important for me to evolve!

My latest inspiration: channeling Scandinavian minimalism in architecture and interior design, and somehow translating it into graphic work. More after the jump.

Only in my dreams

Johnny Thunder – I’m Alive

Me: “And now that I’m actually poor and wearing last season’s Alexander Wang, I feel much more compassionate for others.”

Friend: “Ha. You’re going to hell.”

There’s always some degree of truth at the root of sarcasm, isn’t there? But hey, my low brow humor can’t be as bad as getting “1%” tattooed to my body, right? (Sophia Amoruso, I actually love / worship you, bb.)

In other news, I’m actually poor, working non-profit for a social enterprise now but have deluded myself into thinking that it’s a venture capital-backed tech company. Most of my week consists of working really hard and scraping the bottom of my peanut butter jar to make it work.

So yes, rejoice, I did leave my corporate job! And now I work at a place with magnetic poetry on the fridge, it’s sexy to talk about, but I’m writing this blog in – I know, the horror – last season’s Alexander Wang.
