tokyo select
TOKYO! : a city that was once my home.
I stay Focused in them streets & keep an ever vigilant lens.
Take a look at my Selected Vision of the Faces + Places of TOKYO.
I honestly love Tokyo. Revisiting this city I once called home has left me with a greater connection to the people and places which make up the fabric of this metropolis. I want to give thanks and praise to the many friends I reconnected with, or made during my stay : To DENSE (Yoshitaka Kogure), Yasuhiro Yamashita (Roger Yamaha at Moonwalk Records), REZEON Scum (Takashi Iimura), CLEVER (Formerly of LUZ), Lyntaro (Frank Japan - and all around Boss), REO and crew (68 and Bros.), Kiki Kudo (YoungandRobot), Yuki (Tokyo Gei Den), Mamechiyo (Kimono Designer), Mai (Nike's sassy girl) and I can't forget Yonehara San (Yonehara Yasumasa, Cute Girl Photographer Extraordinaire and all around Genius).
To those, and the many many others whom I met: My sincerest thanks and an honest wish that We All Meet Again Soon!.




Here for your vicarious enjoyment are the images which best express all that is to be had in TOKYO. Here's a finely styled presentation of my experience.

equipoise formal

Approaching Evidentiary Equipoise .
A Mark of Balance / in both sentiment and form .
A new typographic for the tired and hungry .
pherical and Conical Sections in collision of form and face; Equipoise Formal - or The Proper Approach of Balance has taken shape out of the dimensionality from which we emote. Are not our sentiments felt in space, recorded in depth, perceived to be placed in a moment in time? Then why not should our words be seen in the same Radially Shaded Light? Equipoise Formal is the balance of Light + Dark, of Emotion + Utterance. Let this be the shape of things to come


The light of a False Dawn which shudders across a form
Calls unto that Systaltic Center Adrift in Dream
This is more than the Mere Apparition of My Words
Given unto you as Alms Unto a Beggar - Then Lost
A Philanthropic will to speak Truth to a Lie
For years it had been the same exchange
More Lies as their beauty glimmered when in view
It was a Silent Vowel which gave away the Insincerity of You

summer solstice

The Passing of a Season .
With Humility in hand I Present to you .
Summer Solstice : Royal Limited Edition Art Book .
Long Live Print. I've had the good fortune of being at the creative helm of The Royal for quite some time now. We've strived to put forth a product which is more than a mere periodical. There are many who now question the importance of print in this digital age. Some would say that print is Destined to Die - I would say to them Get On My Level. We've coined the term Printed Artifact and as a Bibliophile I can honestly say that Print Will Sustain.
Summer Solstice is a compendium of art - with the focus of the work being The Future. I was able to not only design the entire book - but also supply Page Upon Page of inspired work. Summer Solstice will be limited to a "First Edition" of 1000 copies - and will be Hand Numbered by myself. We will be distributing the book - complete with custom packaging - at The Retreat out in Vegas. I hope this proves to be a valuable tome for all those who are able to cop one. Fine Printing of this book was provided by our print partners Proof Seven New York. Take a look at some of the work - I'll be sure to post up single shots of the artwork soon enough.
