Video: Wiz Khalifa x Toads Place
I procrastinated creating a Vimeo account, which prevented me from publishing this video. Anyway I decided to hit the Wiz Khalifa concert at Toads Place on York Street in New Haven. A few local artist hit the stage before Yelawolf opened for Mr. Khalifa man. Toads was packed like a regular Saturday night, except steady blunts and paper planes were being passed around. I managed to get the last song he performed on video despite the madness in the crowd.
News: Pop-up Design Museum ['n] Boston
Founders Sam Aquillano, Bose Corp. product designer, and Derek Cascio, Philips Color Kinetics designer, were discussing ways to boost the profile of the Massachusetts design community, sketched on the back of a pizza box. These two guys decided to look a organizing a museum in a different way. Because traditional museum hadn’t been an appealing market, Sam and Derek looked into bringing the museum to the public. Design Museum Boston will be separate installations scattered through multiple retail locations. Design Museum is about bringing education in design [animation, print, fashion, architectural, industrial] to the public and that there are designers and there is a design scene in Boston. The New England area and its designers are putting that traditional and colonial essence into the design scene that’s heavily influenced by a ever-changing modern world.
I proposed an idea for the Design Club here at my school to make a trip to Design Museum Boston’s launch party, considering how many designer’s will be there. It’d be a great way to network and build a name in a region different from what you already know.
Design Museum Boston is a non-profit organization with the goal of creating, establishing, and operating virtual and physical design exhibit spaces online, in Boston, and all over New England. These spaces will exhibit design work and host events and programs related to design education.

Good Eats: Take One
(Pardon the cell phone pic) Initially I created “Good Eats,” the category, for times when I actually find good food. Obvious! I’m stuck in my ways when it comes to food, I eat what I know – I know what I eat. However, I knew it wouldn’t thrive for that long. Well, how could it? I don’t eat out often, if hardly, and the best food I eat, usually, is mom’s cooking. Any West Indians would already know whats on the dinner menu, those cultural delicacies. I’m trying to arouse my taste buds and get out more, eat different foods, experience different cultures, etc. This weekend I started off on a good foot. Friday, I made a second trip to the Publick Cup, in downtown New Haven, and enjoyed a toasted California Tuna: lemon and caper tuna salad (no mayo) with ripe avocado and fresh mozzarella on multigrain bread. With a Savannah… I’ll formally introduce the Savannah in a later post.
