My childhood and the TV

Lots of stuff for the Brooklyn Academy of Music lately. Here's a personal illustrated essay about television inspired by the new show at BAM called The Channel.

"I Don't Get It"

An animated short I made with Ben Cohen for the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Robert Wilson goes to see Einstein on the Beach (which he directed) and sits down with Arthur Miller at BAM.

David Byrne on a bike

David Byrne designed bike racks for BAM. They are in shapes that can be built to make letters, and those letters can be arranged (by the authorities in charge of the racks) to make words. There are only a handful of letters available, so you can't just have it spell anything you want. Right now they say "pink crown" and "micro lip." I did the illustration for the listing on the site about these things.

Illustrated essays for BAM

I have done a couple of illustrated essays for the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

Here is a post about author Denis Johnson, pictured above in his cameo in Jesus' Son. The post also goes into detail about his novel Resuscitation of a Hanged Man. He appeared at BAM as part of their Eat, Drink, and Be Literary series.

Here is a post about Jonathan Pryce, pictured above in Glengarry Glen Ross. Other movies covered in the post are Pirates of the Caribbean, Brazil, and the James Bond movie he was in. Pryce appeared at BAM in Harold Pinter's play The Caretaker.

I'm excited to say there are more of these to come.
