Super Typhoon Haiyan Relief
Last Friday, super typhoon Haiyan hit the central Philippines. The effect was catastrophic, with an estimated 10,000 death toll, and so many now homeless and without food. With communication in so many areas still down, it's hard to tell what the damage really is.
This week I will donate all profits from poster and print sales toward UNICEF's Typhoon Yolanda Relief fund.
Please spread the word!

Little Paper Planes Presents: "Material Material" by Doug Johnston & Debbie Carlos
Opening tonight!
Come to the LPP shop to meet Michigan based Debbie Carlos and NYC based Doug Johnston. The artists have been working on a collaborative project since June where they will bring the objects to LPP and talk about this process along with their own practices. We will also be releasing a small publication documenting this project that night!
This will be a fun Monday night to meet this extremely talented artists, see the objects they made and have a drink!
"Given the fact that we work in quite different mediums and live in different states, the process of developing a collaboration was an interesting challenge. Eventually the idea of a game arose, where we would email each other assignments with some basic rules as a way to deal with the distance and to keep the tone playful and open. Based on something Doug had said in an interview, Debbie thought that the work could arise based on raw materials we would send each other. By utilizing digitally based collaborative features such as email, texts and Google, we were able to work together over great distances while also mailing each other physical materials.
Sending one material per month for 3 months over the summer, we set out to make anything we wanted, applying the one rule that we should try to avoid combining the materials with more than two other materials.
Debbie sent Doug: metal tubes and bits; a packet of mixed seeds; pure beeswax.
Doug sent Debbie: a sheet of rubber; concrete mix; a bundle of wood dowels."

November Travels
 |
| San Francisco, 2009 |
 |
| Taiwan, 2008 |
 |
| Philippines, 2006 |
Tomorrow we fly out bright and early and will be traveling for the entire month of November! It will be scary and exciting to be away from home for a month!
First we'll stop in San Francisco where Doug Johnston and I will be presenting our collaborative project, "Material Material", and giving a little talk over at Little Paper Planes on Monday night (Nov 4). If you're in the bay area, we hope to see you there!
A few days later, Devin and I will be flying to Taiwan, Thailand, and finally, to the Philippines. I can't wait to see my family, whom I have not seen for 5 long years. We've never been to Thailand at all, so that will be a completely new experience for us.
We will be armed with our trusty lonely planets but, of course, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Will be posting tons of pictures on instagram, so be sure to follow me there!
