Why Is My Principal/Former Boss Sleeping Outdoors?!

August 25, 2010

0

I rarely take the time to ask for personal favors, and seeing as how I rarely do it, I hope you’ll sense my urgency when I outright ask for your help and support. In a former life (less than a year ago), I used to be a full-time Dean of Students. My primary age group [...]

Music: Kim Boekbinder’s The Impossible Girl- Chapter 1

August 24, 2010

0

Back in January, when Jon Burgerman and Jim Avignon were playing multiple locations in New York,Anxieteam was the opening act for Kim Boekbinder. I’d sort of encountered her name through tweet exchanges with Molly Crabapple, but really had no idea the talent I was missing out on in NYC. Meg and I made our way [...]

Wootini Art Tour: Meeting Oliver Jeffers

August 21, 2010

0

To continue the Wootini Art Tour series, I’ll introduce you to Oliver Jeffers. I’d heard of Jeffers’ books before [How to Catch a Star, The Incredible Book-Eating Boy and many more]– but hadn’t ever been exposed to his art. I am incredibly grateful to Jess for having brought his work to my attention, as I [...]

August 17, 2010

It’s been ages since I’ve updated IHCS with any sort of news– so I figured I would start by sharing the week of fun I had with Jessica (better known as the gorgeous Team Sweet– remember her from a previous v-blog episode?!!). Jessica, who works at Wootini, set out to embark on an art tour. [...]

Just A PSA

July 25, 2010

Comments Off

Hello there fine folks. I’ve lost many of you– and about 100 of you still show up on a semi-daily basis hoping to find something new on the main page and sadly, I continously fail you. My apologies. Aren’t I always apologizing? I’ve been on a self-prescribed sabatical. My odd jobs that help me survive [...]

The Leontine Greenberg Print Poll for G1988

July 3, 2010

1

Leontine Greenberg has popped up on this site several times (not nearly enough in my opinion ^__^), and she strikes again! Coming up in two weeks, Gallery1988 will be featuring Leontine’s works alongside Lawrence Yang’s. The show, Nature Preserve, will feature many new and original watercolor works from Leontine– and those who have followed my [...]

Bits & Beats: A Great Big Pile of Leaves

June 23, 2010

1

I recently received a copy of A Great Pile of Leaves‘ cd, and though I’ve rarely done any music write-ups myself, I chose to share some of my thoughts below. I have little, to no, information on the band A Great Pile of Leaves– which may actually be better since my opinions won’t be affected [...]

I realize I haven’t posted in a while– my apologies. My younger brother is graduating in two days and Walter Bishop (my little guy) just got fixed, so yeah life’s been keeping me busy in a wonderful way. But, what better way to get back into the roll of things then by sharing the news [...]

Taking a Look: Stella Im Hultberg’s Sketchbook

June 11, 2010

1

I think I’ve displayed and expressed my massive fangirl-ism for Stella Im Hultberg‘s works since I was introduced to her work. For over a year now, I’ve made it public knowledge that I plan on getting her collaboration with Audrey Kawasaki tattooed on me (I’ve held out because that piece will set off the beginning [...]

Scene: Shepard Fairey’s MAY DAY

June 4, 2010

0

[click to view flickr set if slideshow doesn't work] I realize the show opened May 1st, hence the name, but I’d been warned that there would be a crowd gathered, so I chose to wait it out and visit the gallery at my own leisure. I didn’t think I’d wait until the last minute, but [...]

I mentioned last week that we’ve reached our birthday! For those who have only recently become fans of IHCS, we turned three years old on May 28th. IHCS began as a private blog titled “sakiwrotewhat.” When myspace was still a shiny new networking tool, I discovered how much I loved blogging and sharing every thought [...]

Podgypanda’s winter sale is half-way through and I can’t believe I haven’t informed you of the news. If you’ve hesitated ordering any of his products (although I don’t see why you would), this is the perfect opportunity to not only get his stuff at a discount, but also score an original sketch.

Scene: DELUXX FLUXX

May 27, 2010

Seeing as how today is the last day of the DELUXX FLUXX arcade created by Faile and Bast, I thought I’d share the video and photos we took when we visited earlier this month. The arcade, located in downtown Manhattan is the second installment of its kind. Last year, Faile opened a similar arcade in [...]

Saturday evening, was an exciting night for me. Giant Robot NY was hosting the opening night for Nathan Jurevicius and Andrea Kang’s duo show [Harley & Boss], Lost in the Woods. I met Nathan Jurevicius once during NYCC ’08 and since his owlet’s release, I declared myself a bonafied fan. For those who aren’t familiar [...]

Eric [known as Phoneticontrol], has been on a mission to get a multitude of artists from different regions to put their own spin on his thought processor figure. I believe the NYC show is the third show of it’s kind, and I’m [...]
