There is no force as powerful as pursuit. It’s a gritty daily grind — but it’s the only way to find out what you’re capable of. Twenty years ago, I ditched medical school and bailed on a PhD in Philosophy to pursue my own calling to become a photographer. Amidst a bunch of head-scratching and doubt from my family and peers, I abandoned a known outcome to dedicate my life to making art. This quest...

It's fair to say that I'm obsessed with the human spirit. It is amazing, bizarre and lovely at the same time and it can accomplish unthinkable things in the face of the most harrowing odds, in the face of challenge, in the face of "never". Which is why I believe in the following quote and the following story that relates to this quote. You may have seen this story 'blow up' on social a few...

I'm a huge believer in making art for art's sake. Taking photos that no one is going to pay you for. Shooting films that aren't commissioned or funded. Writing words that the world may never read. I've said before that doing and making always trumps talking about it, but there's also a difference between the doing and making that pays the bills and the doing and making that brings joy, that hones craft, lights creative...

The Grammys are a usually a lovely nightcap to the previous year’s music. Some celebration, some tension, a little drama and some nice performances. And whether or not you agree with where the Grammy Committee’s voting ended up in any category - one thing is for sure: 4 Grammy’s from Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - who to this day are not signed to a record label - is impressive. And perhaps what’s more impressive IMHO...

One of the many things I love about Travis Rice is his refusal to be pegged into a single hole. Yes, he'll always be a snowboarding legend, but that athletic pursuit is powered by a creative, artistic soul, as evidenced in one way by his art gallery initiative, Asymbol, and in another by his on-going work with the Brain Farm cinema crew. When I had Travis on cjLIVE last year [re-watch here], he...
