If you're looking for your next creative breakthrough or if you're in a job you hate and looking to make a change, this video from Dan Wieden of legendary Wieden + Kennedy agency in Portland is a worthy 15 min of your time. The intro is slow (a Portland love fest...) so skip in a few min if you're watching the clock. Here's what's in this video that I like: - dan is a really... read more ›

The name Travis Rice has for some time been synonymous with the best snowboarder in the world. Literally, of that caliber. Which for those more inclined to the details, that means insane big mountain snowboarding and epic snowboarding films and photoshoots all over the world (watch him on #cjLIVE here).

Music seems more disposable and forgettable than ever with apps... read more ›

Yesterday Apple abruptly removed the mega-popular 500px from the iTunes App store today citing the fact that users can search for photos that feature nudity. I caught up with 500px CEO and co-founder Oleg Gutsol for a comment: "Apple's problem with the app is essentially that it was too easy to find nude photos by using the search function of the app. That functionality has been there since the beginning of our development of the... read more ›

As a creative you likely already have your 'go-to' sources for visual inspiration. There's certainly no shortage of them; from 500px.com to the Atlantic's In Focus blog, the internet is a massive library of outstanding eye candy.

Haroshi takes layers of stacked decks and transforms them into multi-colored body parts, animals, toys and shoes [which I'd definitely wear]. Here's a little insight into the process, taken from the... read more ›
