Hey all!
I usually blog and have something new every Monday but this week I have been tardy. It’s unusually warm this summer in Toronto and I have to say the heat got the better of me at the beginning of the week. I’ll be sure to keep hydrated and I’m sure it won’t happen again!
We have some new stuff coming along and wanted to keep you in the loop:
- More awesome content from FStop10 (you guys really like her stuff and she’s hoping to post more often! yay!)
- More new bloggers who will be posting once a month! (Quil4 – keep an eye out, and one more 90% confirmed blogger [I was just too excited])
- Mon July 12th we will be uploading our interview with Manu Sharma from Stanford University regarding the Natural Capital Project (we finally got some time together and now I’m just editing down a 3hr long conversation into lovely bits of nutritious info!)
- More technology + art based blogs from me…..I’m taking a bit of a break from my own art and doing a bit of research about all the new models for media, art, content distribution. There’s just sooooooo much going on!
In the meantime here is one more addition to my last post about working with virtual teams: Action Method Online….I have the “offline” organizers but the new online project management system seems to be pretty rad so far. I love the interface and the ease of use – and you can even ‘nag’ or ‘appreciate’ your team mates! Ha! I love it!
Action Method has been developed by Behance – an company that helps to keep creative people organized. I very much have enjoyed perusing their many sites however I have found that their creative network (where you can upload and share your portfolio of work) is geared especially towards creatives in the visual fields, such as graphic design, animation and photography. They also have CREATIVE BASED JOBS listed! How exciting! Even artists need to work! Artists and Entrepreneurs aren’t all that different you know…we both attempt to move our passion from concept to reality, all the while attempting to find funding or financing for our endeavours. I feel a new post coming on!
Stay hydrated this summer and try not to exhaust yourself! If you are working hard – take a break! Have a cupcake with a nice cup of light tea and find a buddy to chat with about your passions and dreams. (Lord knows I’d probably have gone mad by now if I didn’t have other artistically minded people to interact with!)
If you don’t have a buddy to chat about such things – you can chat with us!
