		<title>I Am Reading A Visit from the Goon Squad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And it’s like coming back home. It smells familiar. You can take off your shoes and get comfortable, because you’re in the hands of an artist, who may not show you where she’s taking you, but she won’t release you from her world either, until there’s nothing left to explore. I had forgotten – this [...]

		<title>It’s a Ten Year Friendship But No Big Deal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMpggJQyCGY &#160; It’s strange to think our relationship grew from hate. &#160; Well, maybe not as intense as “hate.” “Loathing” is close. &#160; Topher&#8217;s girlfriend and I were good friends – the kind that watched ONE TREE HILL together. He didn’t appreciate this, but we grew on one another nevertheless. Watching B-roll of us work [...]

		<title>Revisionist History</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Nassim Nicholas Taleb notes in his book, BLACK SWAN, that we are creatures of revisionist history: we edit history as we see fit, giving cause or linking relationships between events that aren’t there. It’s part of human nature he says, to search for meaning in daily occurrences. If we don’t find it, we’ll make it [...]

		<title>First Scripts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How many scripts does it take to turn a script reader sour to spec scripts? &#160; I imagine not too long &#8212; if you’re patient and forgiving, somewhere in the low 200’s perhaps. Eventually you see the same mistakes repeated over and over again. Your patience wanes. Your forgiveness falters. &#160; I embraced the process [...]

		<title>Web Content Creation: Testing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“Don’t ask people if they would buy – ask them to buy. The response to the second is the only one that matters… Ask ten people if they would buy your product. Then tell those who said ‘yes’ that you have ten units in your car and ask them to buy. The initial positive responses, [...]

		<title>Web Content Creation: A Model</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the last few months, a group of friends and I have been moving towards shooting a web series pilot. I’m learning a lot from the process, and I want to explore ideas surrounding the creative strategy of independent web content creation. Most of this is likely applicable to any independent project, but my focus [...]

		<title>Without Memory</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Image the work we could do without memory. &#160; If we worked without remembering all the times we failed: &#160; the product we announced would change the world. the novel we’d finally finish. the instrument we’d learn to play. the video that would go viral. the screenplay that’d give us our break. the blog we [...]

		<title>Unprofessional</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Being a professional is not your arrival to a level. Regardless of the field, you don’t stake a claim to professionalism, or petition for permanent residency. Getting paid doesn’t make you a professional. Neither do sponsorships, or praise from your constituents &#8212; all whom may consider themselves professionals based the above standard. Professionalism happens minute-to-minute. [...]
