I’ve been really loving the sounds of this band Hospitality. I missed them at their last show at the Rock Shop due to nyc’s monsoon weather. You can download their music for free here, hospitality.bandcamp.com.

I just came across this info-graphic by the 99 percent, as I was poking around for some inspiration for a current project. 99% took a poll to ask questions like “How do creative projects really get pushed forward? What tools are you using to manage your time and energy? And: Are the ways we live and work as creative professionals undergoing major changes?” I probably shouldn’t be writing a post right now, as my brain is fried, but I found it interesting to see how I compare with the 99% community.
I also found interesting that 53% of designers rework their original ideas at least 5 times. For me, it varies; I might rework an idea for a client at around 3 times but when I design for myself I usually get bored or think I can do better, which ends up becoming a never-ending process.
You can download the pdf of the info-graphic here.

This is a stellar representation of what the daily grind can do to a girl. Love that her feet are off the ground, love the dress, and love the old-timey briefcase. Where can I get one to corral my inner chaos?

Six Point Craft Ales are releasing new cans for their 6th anniversary. Time Out New York has a sneak peak of the cans during production, and a good interview with Shane Whelch of Six Point. I love their beer and enjoy a Sweet Action from time to time. Although I think beer in a can is sacrilegious, I think these cans look pretty sweet.
Simply perfect advertising.
