I finally managed to pick 70-something photos out of the 1500 I took last August/September on my last trip to Albuquerque and upload them to Flickr. You can check them out here.

We had a huge tropical storm with hints of a hurricane over the weekend down here in Asunción. According to the Weather Service, the eye of the storm passed through the city on Saturday at around 7:30 pm with 95 MPH winds. An hour later and when the power service came back up I went outside and found this big ol’ tree ripped from its roots.

BanditAds.com is a simple and cost effective Video advertising solution for the rest of us. I worked with them to develop a brand and website design early this year but I couldn’t find the time to upload it to my portfolio until now.

It turns out, I’m not a creative designer. There, I said it!
Last month I was confronted with this reality over lunch at a NMAF event my dear friend Kenny invited to go. Every month, the NMAF organizes a Monthly Luncheon Event at the Embassy Suites @ ABQ. These monthly lunch/talks are a great opportunity to invite people from the industry to come over to Albuquerque and share their insights. Last September, the nice people at NMAF invited Karl Becker, the President and Founder of Denver-based FL2 to talk about “Traditional and Interactive Agency Partnerships: Why They Often Fail and How They Can Work”.

What a trip that was. I finally got to Asuncion today back from my last journey which by the way, feels like it started in 1987.
Boy, that was long, but looking back it was the coolest trip I ever had! Just to give you an idea, here are some numbers of the past 2 months:
Now all I have to do is tackle my Inbox (quick apologize to all my friends and clients for not being able to set up an Auto-Responder in time) and get back on track with all the work and upcoming projects in the next few weeks. All I can say is: THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME.

Good Morning from kwest on Vimeo.
Kanye West’s latest (super awesome) video “Good Morning” by the even awesomer Takashi Murakami. Reminds me of that time were Daft Punk used to do japanese-animated-looking videos.
