Forever Changes
It’s been a bit of a layoff, my lovelies, but don’t fret, I’ve got great news and will approach this space with renewed vigor soon enough.
First off, Miami was a great time. Not as fun as previous years; there was a feeling of spacing that left bookings and whatnot seeming a bit thin. The M3 Summit was a grand affair as usual, bringing down established talent as well as up-and-comers. Remix Hotel is on the rise as well — I’m anxious to see how their partnership with M3 develops.
Photos are here, review is here.
Second, I’ve started to settle into a new gig, as a staff writer/reporter at Advertising Age’s Creativity. I’m also going to be writing for the companion website, AdCritic.com. As tough as it was to say goodbye to my colleagues at the Post, I’m so excited about Creativity and the directions the magazine is taking. More about that later.
Lastly, I’m slowly recovering from another bi-annual technological revolt. Currently a kaput hard drive is on its way to one of the greatest tech wizards ever to haunt Detroit and the husk of a once-working iPod sits on my dresser. Of course, in life, all things are transitory, but I sure wish I had backed up the good stuff.
At any rate, drop by often. I’ve heard a lot of great tunes lately, and I’ll be sure to keep you posted on that front. Once I get used to this wild advertising industry I’ll surely have thoughts there, too.
Until ‘06
Posts here will go from a trickle to a complete stop soon, as I’m due for some R&R in Michigan’s snowy bosom.
Detroit cats, get at me, I’ll be around a few days. After that, it’s on to this quaint Northern abode, hopefully with more snow than pictured here. Happy Holidays to all.
Crank ‘er up
Gentle Reader:
Please bear with me if you’ve arrived to find such generic confines.
There’s still spackle all over the walls, the floor has that brown paper down for workmen to walk on (though they never do), and all that’s in the fridge is a flat 2-liter bottle of cola.
