MTTV: INTRODUCING GOMMI

February 28th, 2010

INTRODUCING GOMMI from Creative Control on Vimeo.

The saga begins in the year 2025 A.D. in Neo Tokio, a city-nation considered by its citizens the most technologically advanced society. But beyond the propaganda, it is really a simulated reality controlled by Supreme Executives for the sole purpose of pacifying and subduing all forms of creative freedom: restricting self-expression, curbing intellectual curiosity and perpetually enslaving it’s citizens.

After realizing the state of the union, Gommi Arcadian plans a rebellion against the corporate owners of Neo Tokio. In collaboration with a band of cyberpunks, using art as a weapon and research as ammunition, Gommi forms a resistance movement known as ARMi (Art, Research, Media and Intelligence), which strikes back at the empire utilizing innovative technology, graphic design and street art to spread inspiring messages of creative freedom.

My Life: A Day At Venice Beach

February 28th, 2010

I visited Venice beach while I was out in California and I have to say it is such a breath of fresh air, calming and serene. Venice is also home to a very famous/infamous skate park that is visited by hundreds daily, on a lucky day you can see some of your favorite pro’s skating the bowl. I was really impressed by the amount of youngsters and girls killing it at the park.

*Venice is a district in western Los Angeles, California, United States. It is known for its canals, beaches and circus-like Ocean Front Walk, which features performers, fortune-tellers and vendors.[1] Throughout the summer months, the boardwalk is actively entertaining, and this tradition continues on weekends in the winter.[2] It is an important tourist attraction in Southern California,[3] and has retained its popularity in part because it is an attractive location for walking and bicycling.[2] It was home to early Beat poets and artists in Los Angeles. via

The linear notes were originally written by hand which is such a great personal touch.

Double cd! 1 mixed by P-plus and the other mixed by Lissa Monet I was supposed to download it like everyone else but when word came I was getting 1 in the mail I decided to wait before I heard it. I’m glad I waited!

“Saturdays”: Gourmet Fall 2010 Women’s Collection Preview from Gourmet NFN on Vimeo.

It is so amazing that the advancement of technology has allowed smaller brands to create content and experiences that would have cost a fortune back in the day. This looks like a commercial that should be playing on TV. Great Concept guys!
