Artist as Entrepreneur: Making Art + A Living with Zoe Keating on #cjLIVE – Wed May 2nd
Now more than ever before, we artists are entrepreneurs. Born from opportunity or necessity or both, we have become the CEO’s of ourselves.

For...

What Photos Would You Want In Prison?
We’re so innundated with photos these days. If you miss a loved one, you can just pull up a Facebook page or shoot them a text asking for a picture of what they’re doing. But what if you were locked away with limited access to images. What would you ask for? My dear friend Jon...
The “BEFORE” Shots: Eerie Rescue Photos 100 Years After The Titanic Went Down
While we USA folks were struggling to get our taxes handled a couple days ago on April 15th, we shouldn’t have been fussing or celebrating, we should have been thinking of the lives lost aboard the RMS Titanic–which sunk 100 years ago on that day. Since this week marks that horrific — albeit fascinating —...
Emerging Talent: IGNACIO TORRES + His “Stellar” Project
Young NYC based photographer Ignacio Torres gave me cause for pause with his fascinating photographs that look like they come straight from the mind of Carl Sagan (“we are all made of star stuff”).

The wreckage is crazy, many people have lost everything–some even their lives–and aide workers are doing their best to piece it all back together. There a few photos of the storms themselves–which are huge and scary–but mostly, there are tons of photos of...
From Skulls to Spam Cans — These Cameras Are SuperCool & SuperWeird
My homies over at Flavorwire ran a really cool gallery of cameras made out of unusual stuff–like trees, shells, and–like you see in the photo above, a turtle shell (no turtles were harmed in the making…only natural causes of death…)… Which got me thinking: cameras have been along so long, people have had the chance...

Chances are that the clients you ditched needed ditching, the clients you carry forward and the new clients you land...
