I cut this on iMovie. That’s a handy program that’s really easy to use compared to final cut. I shot this with a cheap Flip Cam. If you’re in LA, come out to the show, I’m working hard on it all. www.giantrobot.com/biennale

Ray Barbee is the coolest guy and now, he’s super into photography. I mean not just a little, but hardcore crazy details. Processing times, printing tricks and papers, and so much more. When Ray gets into something, he’s super into it. It was fun to hang out and see him get so into talking about photo!

Here’s a link to Giant Robot on NBC TV. Surprising they did a piece lasting more than a minute, and it shows how dorky we really are. If I could embed video, I’d do it for ya.

Exclusive Giant Robot items at Comic-Con! booth 1729. Had to show you these items.

Pop Culture continues in vegetables and fruit. I’m at Wholefoods and I see these proudly displayed underneath the fruit. It’s part of the shops look, and temporary at that. Lesson: design your boxes nicely, and you might get a little bit of advertising for your farm, out of it all. Yeti’s Best? It looks like a Michael Leon design. Put the Yeti on a skateboard and you have it.

People think Japanese folk eat nothing but veggies and fish, but they’re also meat and potatoes people too. Here’s the dish. Niku Jaga.

It literally means meat and potatoes. It’s a common dish in Japan. I made it for the first time, and I’ll report it’s quite easy to make and is a crowd pleaser. Of course, it takes some adjustments to get right. Not enough soysauce, too much cooking sake, mirin, etc. Try this one and eat it over a few days.

See you there tomorrow! www.gr-sf.com

Goh Nakamura will be playing a set at 8:30 or 9pm. I’ll be there hanging out. Say hello if you roll through.

There’s not enough graffiti that makes me smile. I know there’s an ethical code of being hard, but that doesn’t do enough for me. I saw this on Alameda Blvd in Downtown LA. If there were more of these, I think there’d be less honking and angry people. Who did these?

Hope you didn’t bet it all on Jose! Hong Man Choi is a 7 foot fighter and actually can battle the best.

I don’t know too much about Beer, but this bottle was too cool to pass up to photograph. It says Hitachino Nest. Kiuchi Brewery. I don’t know what this one tastes like, but I’m sure it’s good. It’s White Ale. Next time, I’m going to get one… The price is sort of steep.

Anyone taste this one?
