montreal

Attached is a samle from my upcoming show at the Good News Cafe in Woodbury, CT. This is from the series done in Montreal this summer. It is the inside of a deli that specializes in brisket sandwiches...I can not remember the name.

Product Project Party

PPP is the name of the group that designed these bowls. Their website is under construction and this micro photo from the exhibitors section of Tokyo Design Week was all I could find but the form and laminated construction is excellent.

play patterns

If the materials were different I think that there would be a good opportunity to mix shape sorting and stacking play to create a unique ELA version of this idea.

drilling

If you have the opportunity check out the drilling episode of the History channel series Modern Marvels. I watched it while I was home sick last week but they re-air old episodes all of the time. They cover the invention of the drill bit, Black and Deckers revolutionary handheld version, the drilling of the seven mile hole in Russia and new laser drilling techniques that are the key to unlocking the potential of geothermal. They also talk about sideways drilling (used in Oil and water), good stuff.

Binde

It means toast in Portuguese...I think. It may be referring to the celebratory meaning of the word toast. Either way, here it is in progress.

hammer

Check out this article by the Welch's from Business Week a few weeks back. It is one of the most annoying and ill informed articles I have read on the topic of managing creatives.

form

A lot of glass work seems overworked and gimmicky but these have a clean classic feel.
