Living and Dying Part 1

Adam Gault has done another collaborative self-initiated piece which is just plain amazing. Living and Dying Part 1 is based on a series of paintings by Stefanie Augustine and has a mesmerizing soundtrack by her sister Alison Augustine. As the title suggests, there may be more in this series. I’m looking forward to them.

Inspire ’08 is next weekend in Savannah at SCAD. Last year PSST! got the “Movement Award” at the Inspire Awards. Unfortunately we won’t be able to go this year, but it was really a great conference and this year’s looks fantastic, too. With presentations from PES, BNS, Psyop and Digital Kitchen, looks like it’ll be well worth it!
