I Can’t Get No

Life is temporary. We live, we learn, hopefully we love but regardless we die. As children we grow, as teenagers we experiment, in our 20s we try to find ourselves and afterwards we strive to be satisfied through family, well-deserved careers and further exploration of ourselves. Before our individual rolling stone finally comes to rest,... Continue Reading →

The Importance of Being Honest

No one likes a liar and apparently no one prefers to buy from one either. As the world of advertising continues to shift towards content-based engagement, transparency is vital to success. Posting amusing pictures and clever slogans are still memorable and will drawn in new consumers but it is factual and informative content that will... Continue Reading →

Planet of the Humanoids

The year is 2013 and humans have been replaced by lifelike humaniods that are fueled by technology. With the exception of a ever-shortening recalibration period over the course of a typical night, these humaniods are sustained through sustained, daily periods of interaction with technology. There are no visible wires but the recharge itself is visible through... Continue Reading →

The house lights go down as the crowd, packed liked sardines in a fresh sea of blackness, gasps and focuses all attention on a dark, barren stage. 5 seconds pass. 10 seconds pass. Nothing happens but the crowd is not concerned as the silence continues to grow. 15 seconds pass. The collective gasp that initially... Continue Reading →

Open Letter to ‘The Academy’

Dearest Oscar, How have you been? It has been a long time, I mean a long time, since we last spoke but as I approach my last gasps, urgency is of the utmost importance so I'll press on. My message to you today is a warning. A warning to take extra care in whom you... Continue Reading →
