The building has two main areas, the music and dance theater on the first floor and the exhibition space on the second floor. Both areas are connected by a staircase that may be the most eye-catching part of the design, spiraling upwards as a large piece of multicolored wood against the blank white walls and ceiling of the space. Not only does it add intrigue and color but it gives the space a bit of a crafty and handmade vibe – perfect for an art school.

We all need to hit pause button once and a while. Breaks give you a chance to miss things. Breaks give you a chance to think. Breaks give you a chance asess. They give you a chance to recharge. When you are constantly "on" you tend to loose focus and it shows in your work. Everybody deserves a break. During my break from you all I've been working my 9 to 5, being a Daddy/Husband having a blast with my angels and I started managing a rock band. I have been exposed to some of the dopest creativity over the past few months and my juices are flowing again. I have to get them out and what a better way than to share in a post. So welcome back I promise it all will be worth the wait....<br />

Never thought I would see that day that Jay Electronica would endorse any corporate brand. This is undoubtly something that was set up by his affiliation with Roc Nation.....The clip was filmed in Electronica's native New Orleans and the folks at PepsiCo filmed this in a way that didn't compromise Jay's eclectic persona. It's good to see major brands showing some artistic diversity in their marketing.5ivemikeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13447498083935656203noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8894072074534992849.post-49415157536109811522010-12-30T23:32:00.002-05:002010-12-30T23:32:52.898-05:00Lupe Fiasco "The Show Must Go On"<object height="390" width="640"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rmp6zIr5y4U&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rmp6zIr5y4U&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="390"></embed></object>5ivemikeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13447498083935656203noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8894072074534992849.post-42423900811876976162010-12-22T11:41:00.001-05:002010-12-22T11:41:05.029-05:00Eric Roberson - SHE<object width="640" height="390"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/HXyD0NkFmXk&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/HXyD0NkFmXk&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="390"></embed></object>5ivemikeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13447498083935656203noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8894072074534992849.post-11763458062454920642010-12-21T12:43:00.000-05:002010-12-21T12:43:56.482-05:00Bobby V - Words directed by G.Visuals<object style="height: 390px; width: 640px;"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qk8TWd-bzGo?version=3"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qk8TWd-bzGo?version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="390"></object><br />

Director G.Visuals brings to life what is arguably Bobby Valentino's best song to date. The treatment, an updated take on the classic "Hello" by Lionel Richie, takes Bobby V out of his normal zone of bump and grind and presents him with the task of flexing his acting chops to show more heartfelt emotions. Bobby V's love interest is a ballerina who by the way, possesses an organic beauty not normally found in mainstream music videos, but was perfect for the message Bobby V and Visuals where looking to give. She catches his eye during an audition and it is not until later he realizes that she is actually blind. It's clear after watching this video that G.Visuals strength as a director is using the camera to tell a story. He succeeds in this with great casting, stunning shots, subtle cut aways and great art direction. In the chorus Valentino sings, "Words don't mean that much to me" so Visuals took note and let the lens speak....5ivemikeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13447498083935656203noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8894072074534992849.post-41472900075425860052010-12-21T11:09:00.000-05:002010-12-21T11:09:16.434-05:00Visions of Visionaries with Aloe Blacc.<iframe frameborder="0" height="225" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/17971191" width="400"></iframe><br />
