Unfortunately, our Concorde was in the shop for repairs...and jet fuel...and new wiper blades...Otherwise, we would've jetted to Berlin to catch the opening for this retrospective of Shepard Fairey's work. After all, while the 2008 election opened up this iconic creator's work to the world at large, some of us still have a couple of original "Andre The Giant Has a Posse" stickers buried around here somewhere. So enjoy this latest work for the Merry Karnowsky Gallery, and we'll be seeing you again soon.

Robbed of Cake Once Again...

Once again, we've been duped out of Birthday Celebrations and our chance use our new mayonnaise gun. Team Member and the only 80 year old man to look like a 14 year old boy, Seaton Lin, became both older and younger simultaneously this weekend. Now he might tell you that a night out that weekend at the Texas Filmmaker's Showcase (having fun with our plants in the Houston Film Commission) is a party, but it's not a birthday party without Tequila smoothies and Tricycle races. So, Happy B-day to Mr. Lin...if we're not interrupting 60 Minutes.

We've been Robbed of Cake...

This past weekend, Team Member and all around Creative Monster, Ryan Apuy, managed to slip a birthday under the radar without the contractually obligated Streaking down Sepulveda (the whole street from start to finish), the Billboard Striptease, nor the Cow-Tipping Contest. As he's managed to avoid this we've decided to humiliate him here instead. So Happy Birthday, Ryan...and you had best have travel plans to escape what we have planned for next year.

Non-Perpetual Motion...

This week also saw us land in our new offices back on the west side of town. Nothing like a move to remind you how difficult a move is and how much stuff you've managed to accumulate. Now we're nearly settled in, zip-tying the cables, and ironing out the technical kinks. Soon enough, more work and good times will flow.

Merry Karnowsky Gallery: Kill Pixie (Mark Whalen): I'll Hit You Up Tomorrow

Another Saturday in high society for the opening of Kill Pixie's new show at the Merry Karnowsky Gallery. Kill Pixie's highly glyphic work drew viewers in with it's bright colors, intensive detail, and shiny finish. The back room featured a large interactive pinball machine installation with sound design by noise pop trio Autolux. Host Tim Roth worked the room catching shots of the exhibition and it's wall-to-wall audience. We'll have our video coverage of the event available soon.

...with a little Reluctance

This week was a busy one. In addition to the normal workflow, we stepped out of the office to do a little production. Over three days, we shot another UFO abduction inspired short entitled, RELUCTANCE. Some minor equipment problems, some prop fires, and some shifting locations and it was in the can. Thanks to everyone who helped put this thing together. We look forward to posting the outcome as soon as it's ready.

Merry Karnowsky Gallery: Edward Walton Wilcox - Recent Work

Merry Karnowsky Gallery : EDWARD WALTON WILCOX: SOLO EXHIBITION from c-10 on Vimeo.

This month we were back again at the Merry Karnowsky gallery to cover the opening night of Edward Walton Wilcox's show. Edward's work is a phantasm of richly romantic and ominous pieces. A particular highlight of which was his coffin-gun carriage installation which allowed the spectator to step into one of the artist's compositions. In contrast, the artist himself is a warm conversationalist and yarn-spinner.
