Social Media Event at ZAAZ Seattle July 8th
Brian Fling of Fling Media is a full-fledged mobile design geek and human Swiss Army knife. His talk, “Mobile 2.0: Design and Develop for the iPhone and Beyond” will explore some of the social dimensions of the emerging mobile world.
(I think I might have to put “human Swiss Army knife” on my business card.)
But if you are in Seattle, be sure to come out for what promises to be a very fun night.
“Speed Dressing,” a well done, but apparently controversial spec spot for JCPenny.

George Lucas, Free to Follow His Instincts
After reading the depressing prediction of future Indie film by Mark Gill, I found this great article in the NY Times about George Lucas. While hardly perceived as an “Independent” he does have an interesting unique approach to the movie making business that defies traditional big budget doctrine… have fun.
(By the way, here are a few photos I took at a visit to the Letterman Digital Arts Center at the Presidio a few years ago.)
A series of photos showing life in London in 2090, when rising sea levels have inundated the city.

The single biggest change should be to only make movies that we absolutely love. Not ones we like. Not ones we need to do as a favor. Not the ones we do because they seem like a good “piece of business.” Not ones we do because we think, hope or wish that “the kids” will like them. Not the knock-offs of the ones that worked at the box office last year. In a word, we should only pick the films we’re passionate about—and that have an audience.

[Wednesday]’s vote by Congress effectively gives retroactive immunity to the telecom companies and endorses an all-powerful president. It’s a Congressional coup against the Constitution.

Dark Knight Selling Out Three Weeks Early
It makes sense that there’s a rush for tickets — it looks action-packed and film fans are anxious to see Heath Ledger.
Or it could just be that Batman Begins was really fucking awesome and people can’t wait to see part two. Either way, I’m buying my tickets now.
