I am so bummed that this filmmaker got to MY idea before me. The concept: film the Mac OS desktop in constant action and use its creative applications to tell the story. Okay, I didn’t write it down or anything, but it has been stirring in my head for awhile. Well, guess this will serve as a reminder to create more, talk/ponder less.
This new Bird and the Bee video by Dennis Liu turned out really well.

“I am trying to draw every person in New York. I will be drawing people everyday and posting as frequently as I can. It is possible that I will draw you without you knowing it. I draw in Subway stations and museums and restaurants and on street corners. I try not to be in the way when I am drawing or be too noticeable. Whenever I have a new batch of drawings I will post them on this blog. If you would like to increase the chances of a portrait of YOU appearing on this blog please email me (art@jasonpolan.com) a street corner or other public place that you will be standing at for a duration of two minutes (I will be on the corner of 14th street and 8th avenue on the North-east corner of the street from 2:42-2:44pm this Thursday wearing a bright yellow jacket and navy rubber boots, for example). Please give me more than a 24 hour warning and please make it a scenario that is not too difficult for you to accomplish (the corner outside of the store you work at during lunch time, or in front of a museum you were going to go to on a Saturday) because I may unfortunately miss you and do not want you to have to invest more than 2 minutes of your time in case I cannot make it. You may or may not see me drawing you during this time. If I do draw you, you will see yourself (or rather, a drawing that hopefully somewhat resembles you) on this blog that evening.
When the project is completed we will all have a get together.”
Happy Mother’s Day!
Mom, thank you for being such a supportive, loving, understanding, wonderful person! I’m thinking about you today and wanted to send my love! xo!
