Friends who are doing cool stuff!

Derek is an old friend of mine, boyfriend of my best friend and super musician. His new band the Cave Singers just release there debut album on Matador and their video just went live this week for an amazing song "Dancing on our Graves" you can read about it and watch it HERE.

My friend Seyta, one of my only close friend left over from high school, runs this incredible business called Duchess. She makes custom men's suit's. I'll let her site speak for itself but if you happen to be in NY and can afford a fancy suit, well hope to it they are only there for two days- November 12 & 13th!

Later in the afternoon I have a phone meeting with the publicist from Princeton Architectural Press regarding book stuff. At 5 I meet with Cris (my editor) who will be helping me get my media together for this weekend's talk at Maker Faire.Then I play a show with Wooden Robot at Cactus Club at 10.

Friday my entire day will be spent doing preperation for Gallery Night (7-10pm) at my gallery Paper Boat. I may have mentioned it but The show is titled "The New Witch" with work by Xandar Marro, Pippi Zornoza, Micaela O'Herlihy, Kim Kisiolek, Polina Malikin, Katy Horan and yours truly. I can't resist the postcard image we used from Providence artist Xander Marro, it's a cloth patch that comes with a zine she put together titled "Witch".

Some nice press we weren't expecting. Too bad they didn't list our next show date on December 8th!

The New Witch at Paper Boat this Friday!

My other Blog which I always reference just got written up as a blogger "Blog of Note" which is pretty rad. If you keep up to date with that one you will realize why this little guy gets neglected all the time......

This show I curated at Paper Boat is already open but the reception is next Friday. There is some amazing work in the show, if you are in the area you should check it out!!!!
