We’re chairing a 2 day panel about Urban Youth Trends in the DIY era. Got a bunch of great thinkers, looking for some more. The panel is for a major brand, so your time will be well paid. If you’ve got thoughts, please drop me an email.
On Saturday September 13th, NYC will host an Interesting conference. It’s a day of speakers on topics as varied as The Physics of Quicksand to The Potential of Lego – people speaking about their hidden passions or flights of fancy. It’s already gone gangbusters in London, Amsterdam and Sydney.

Dropsquad Desedo director Paul Kamuf is working with Crew Cuts editor Jon Daniel to slice and dice his short film Windows Vista: Predator Edition. Above are 3 stills from the shoot and below are some of the fine folks behind the camera. What we love about this biz is that we get to make the donuts with our friends.
MHB was just invited to speak in Berlin at the upcoming Contemporary Muslim Consumer Cultures conference. He’ll being presenting his research about how American-Muslim identity politics are linked to advertising, pop and new media. $170B demo that’s still ignored by brands + agencies. Give a shout if you wanna learn more.
Dropsquad Desedo director Jordan Alport is now collaborating with classical composer Gerald Busby on a series of 3 original short films. They worked together to divine the theme of Impermanence, JA created some parameters, GBus wrote the music and now JA will direct in response. Like tango dancers, they are.
Gerald has worked with Robert Altman, Paul Taylor and often collaborates with writer/director Craig Lucas. And he described our Valentine’s Party as “very Kansas City Whorehouse.” So you know we’re flattered he’s rolling with the elephant.
