'formal tees' Mon Aug 23 12:31PM
our good friends Bob and Roxie were married last weekend and their beautiful ceremony was a semi-formal outdoor event. a couple days prior Beavis and i were discussing whether we should wear pants or our dress shorts. just then i realized this would be a excellent time to make and wear tuxedo shirts. i called Esteban immediately and he was totally down to make the artwork. he said it was 'a dream come true'. to see some of the other amazing things that goes on in Estebans head check out his flickr and if you need a tux for your next semi-formail event just let us know.

'west coast' Mon Aug 9 6:13PM
i was out in Sand Diego recently for the Johnny Rad Fest that my friend Tyrone puts on and was lucky enough to stay a couple extra days and hit up a couple clothing companies native to the area. first we stopped by Brixton. it was cool to see all the samples they had out for this years line and to see the computer mockups covering the walls for their fall 2011 line that they are already finishing up. Peter even hooked Tryone and i up with some free swag!! next we bounced over to Loser Machine. it was a pretty small warehouse manned by only three guys but they are pumping out some killer biker influenced apparel. all in all it was really cool to get a behind the scenes look at how companies go from design to finished product. destroy the future.

Paul came to us with a great idea to celebrate the 2 year anniversary of his bar, The Black Sparrow. he wanted a dozen shirts of each bartenders face. we knew it was going to be a lot of work, from design to set-up and printing, along with planning a party to go along with the release but we also knew it would be a very fun job to work on. i finished printing right about when the party was supposed to start and when i got to the bar i couldnt wait to show everyone. the shirts were a suprise though so Paul went upstairs and put on one of the Pat shirts. then one by one the bartenders went and put on shirts of their co-workers faces. lots of laughs followed and the party stretched late into the night. Paul even made some burnt-up quesadillas for everyone that stuck around til close. it was a cool event to be a part of.
'FMMF' Tues Jan 5 2010 3:29PM

so Greg called me a few weeks back and told me that one of our prints was on MTV!?! turns out the show 'World's Strictest Parents' filmed an episode in Bloomington and the kid on the show was wearing an Amused Skate hoodie that we printed. i have been scouring the innernets trying to find a clip of this episode or even a screen-shot with no luck. if anyone knows of one, send a link my way! this artwork is old. its SO old that i dont even have the original file and it looks like i made the skateboard the same day i found out about the magic wand in photoshop! this is a scan of the original transparency. [the color fill had water spilled on it and is lost forever] anyways, there are tons of these prints all over [thanks BOB!!] and there was even a run of stickers done of it which i have seen in the strangest places across the state. this is where im supposed to put the link to Amused's website..

'Black Sparrow turns 2' Sat Jan 16 2010 3:52PM
Paul came to us with a great idea to celebrate the 2 year anniversary of his bar, The Black Sparrow. he wanted a dozen shirts of each bartenders face. we knew it was going to be a lot of work, from design to set-up and printing, along with planning a party to go along with the release but we also knew it would be a very fun job to work on. i finished printing right about when the party was supposed to start and when i got to the bar i couldnt wait to show everyone. the shirts were a suprise though so Paul went upstairs and put on one of the Pat shirts. then one by one the bartenders went and put on shirts of their co-workers faces. lots of laughs followed and the party stretched late into the night. Paul even made some burnt-up quesadillas for everyone that stuck around til close. it was a cool event to be a part of.

so Greg called me a few weeks back and told me that one of our prints was on MTV!?! turns out the show 'World's Strictest Parents' filmed an episode in Bloomington and the kid on the show was wearing an Amused Skate hoodie that we printed. i have been scouring the innernets trying to find a clip of this episode or even a screen-shot with no luck. if anyone knows of one, send a link my way! this artwork is old. its SO old that i dont even have the original file and it looks like i made the skateboard the same day i found out about the magic wand in photoshop! this is a scan of the original transparency. [the color fill had water spilled on it and is lost forever] anyways, there are tons of these prints all over [thanks BOB!!] and there was even a run of stickers done of it which i have seen in the strangest places across the state. this is where im supposed to put the link to Amused's website..

[the color fill had water spilled on it and is lost forever] anyways, there are tons of these prints all over [thanks BOB!!] and there was even a run of stickers done of it which i have seen in the strangest places across the state. this is where im supposed to put the link to Amused's website..

Paul came to us with a great idea to celebrate the 2 year anniversary of his bar, The Black Sparrow. he wanted a dozen shirts of each bartenders face. we knew it was going to be a lot of work, from design to set-up and printing, along with planning a party to go along with the release but we also knew it would be a very fun job to work on. i finished printing right about when the party was supposed to start and when i got to the bar i couldnt wait to show everyone. the shirts were a suprise though so Paul went upstairs and put on one of the Pat shirts. then one by one the bartenders went and put on shirts of their co-workers faces. lots of laughs followed and the party stretched late into the night. Paul even made some burnt-up quesadillas for everyone that stuck around til close. it was a cool event to be a part of.

i wanted to give a shout to my buddy Esteban Garcia, who helped me get this site up and running, and show a little bit of what he's been up to these days. he's been working on these platonic shape costumes and video tracking software that attaches animation loops to video in real time. first interactive gallery is going to be held in mid-January at the West Lafayette Public Library so keep your eyes open for more info. check out all of Estebans work at snebtor.chiguiro.org/.

so Greg called me a few weeks back and told me that one of our prints was on MTV!?! turns out the show 'World's Strictest Parents' filmed an episode in Bloomington and the kid on the show was wearing an Amused Skate hoodie that we printed. i have been scouring the innernets trying to find a clip of this episode or even a screen-shot with no luck. if anyone knows of one, send a link my way! this artwork is old. its SO old that i dont even have the original file and it looks like i made the skateboard the same day i found out about the magic wand in photoshop! this is a scan of the original transparency. [the color fill had water spilled on it and is lost forever] anyways, there are tons of these prints all over [thanks BOB!!] and there was even a run of stickers done of it which i have seen in the strangest places across the state. this is where im supposed to put the link to Amused's website..

subliminal messages, word puns and catch phrases or just sheer shock factor. we all know what we think when noone is looking; we all know what we think when we get our hands on any advertisement Mineus has a say in: anything from panties to booze to scary animalistic ennuendos.combine forces of the superpowers of Journal & Courier, the farceur/ pivit of the Black Sparrow, and the dexterous Mineus dyad, and what do you have? something to ruminate about, finally.
take a gander in your friendly TGIF issue every sunny friday afternoon and you'll get it. finally.your frontal lobes are sure to be aroused.

'Black Sparrow turns 2' Sat Jan 16 2010 3:52PM
Paul came to us with a great idea to celebrate the 2 year anniversary of his bar, The Black Sparrow. he wanted a dozen shirts of each bartenders face. we knew it was going to be a lot of work, from design to set-up and printing, along with planning a party to go along with the release but we also knew it would be a very fun job to work on. i finished printing right about when the party was supposed to start and when i got to the bar i couldnt wait to show everyone. the shirts were a suprise though so Paul went upstairs and put on one of the Pat shirts. then one by one the bartenders went and put on shirts of their co-workers faces. lots of laughs followed and the party stretched late into the night. Paul even made some burnt-up quesadillas for everyone that stuck around til close. it was a cool event to be a part of.
