As you can see from above, BKNY’s new scissors design is hand-printed by me at FLEAHEART’s studio. I can safely say I didn’t blow anything up or mess up any blanks, all-in-all a good first print run.

Also, (only fair) I made sure to print on a blank that I know the ladies dig (AA’s Tri-Blend Deep-V). Both designs came out great and interact well with the V’ed necks of both shirts.

Yesterday at my ‘internship’, the guys at Fleaheart let me jump on the 4-color and print some tees. I’ve printed before, but am still a beginner in terms of experience. I did pretty well (I only messed up one shirt…;). Eventually (what I’m interning for), I will be able to print my own stuff at the studio (when the shop is closed). Reclaiming, coating, paint mixing, heater temps, pffft! It’s really only printing and burning I need to work on (being more consistent with squeegee pressure and figuring out this whole registration from light table to press thing).

All in all, my internship has been awesome. I love hands-on learning. It’s only a mtter of time until I have access to a fully operational silkscreen shop (look out world, let the experimenting begin), even if it means being a shop hand on Mondays.

5 minute sneak peak!

Banksy’s film “Exit Through The Gift Shop” premieres in NYC this Friday (4/16) at Sunshine Cinema and I couldn’t be more excited. After reading this, I straight-away bought 2 tickets to Friday’s show SOLD OUT show. It’s going to be awesome. Not to mention, if it’s anything like his L.A. premiere, I’m pretty much guaranteed to see my first Banksy street piece (I have seen his gallery stuff).

The messages of Banksy’s work is what I dig the most. I love street art, but could never justify scribbling your ugly tag on random walls…for me its all about the visual impact (and for artist like Banksy, the message). I still have a ways to go ;).

HOLY! I’m certain I’m not the only one blogging about how freakin’ awesome this video is, but damn. That TETRIS sequence…sooo clever. I really want to make that Pac-man sequence into some sort of shirt idea, but can’t now since I’d be copying. I hope someday I will get the opportunity to work on and learn special effects. I know Final Cut somewhat, but can’t imagine the cool promos/commercials I could do for BKNY if I knew all those effects tools.

It has taken me up until now (what the heck was I thinking) to finally pull the trigger on a digital camera. Buuut, I’m now the proud new owner of a Canon EOS Rebel XS DSLR and couldn’t be more excited. With good design and cool products a given, photography is the the keystone to selling clothing, etc online. You wait, BKNY is in for some extreme enhancements (enhance…enhance…).

Wow. Last night, besides not getting home until 3:30, (yeah, this morning was rough), was absolutely massive.

RECAP
• Yes, Le Poisson Rouge is an amazing venue. I will be attending more shows there in the future, fo’sho. Even though the show was sold out, you could still maneuver around (take notes Fillmore, pfffft!)
• I’m over trance. I am totally into this experimental, jazzy, heavy on the bass, psychedelic electronica that peeps like Flylo and NOSAJ THING are dropping, fo’real.
• Mamouns never tasted so good at 2:30am

Anyhow, back to the beats. NOSAJ THING killed it last night. He is definitely getting added to the ol’Pandora QuickMix and my ohmyrockness alerts . Flylo as expected, was the the cherry-on-top to a great evening. His new album is gonna be tiiight.

My co-worker sent me this track this morning. Not much more to say that hasn’t already been said about Flying Lotus (pretty ill site) – just straight up good stuff. His video for Parisian Goldfish will forever be one of my favs of all time (no words can describe this masterpiece, a mos def ‘wtf?!’…the illness drops @3:04).

I highly recommend keeping tabs on this dude’s schedule. I was lucky enough to peep him last year at the American Museum of Natural History, awesome show.
