We've decided to release the Brainstorm 4 footage that was slated to be released in 2004 but never saw the light of day. Props to Marc Sense and Sam Chesneau for producing one of the sickest MC events out there, and Tim Uomoto/F-Rock Ent for editing.August 26, 2010
In Seattle, there are several "free walls" that have cropped up around the city. The most controversial of them all being Tubs on 50th in the U-District. For fans of urban art, it is definitely worth a visit, for other people, it has been said to be an eyesore. The debate continues, and probably will for quite a while, in the meantime, check out a couple pics below, and visit here for an article on the legitimacy of the 'art'.

Phil picked out the soundtrack and we edited it together one night." haha, they actually say cheeky, didn't know they used that word over there for reals. Crazy.August 9, 2010

Once again we are fortunate enough to have a real pro judge our photo contest this month. Vivian Hsu, from Vivian Hsu Photography is one of the most talented photographers we have ever seen. Check out her blog HERE and a couple of her pics from her H2O collection below.What is the best movie you've seen in the theaters this year?
I would have to say Inception. I just watched it for the second time in the theater, which I am rarely compelled to do for any new movie. The intensity of the cinematography had me holding my breath, and the final scene left me speechless!
Two of your biggest pet peeves?
I have the hardest time just choosing two, so here goes: bad manners, arrogance, poor grammar, when people don't smile or have a sense of humor, a limp handshake, loud eating noises, women who wear stilettos but can barely walk in them and look like they'll topple over at any given second.
A ticket to your favorite thing, what is it?
I have two favorites: a couture fashion show, or a musical theater show on broadway. Musical comedies are the best, and bad fashion can be fun to laugh at, too.
Now for our serious question, what advice would you give to a photographer trying to take a quality photo of a breaker?
Think outside the box. Timing is everything, so take five hundred photos to get that one perfect shot. (see photo below)
