A collection of graphic design on the state of the world and our place in it. Designed around a simple idea: the demo. First copy has arrived. Printing looks good.
13 years
These days I find myself working with my favorites teams ever. We’re collaborating, pushing ourselves, taking on big challenges, working through lots of moving parts, and everything simply feels really exciting.
It’s wonderful to be amongst such thoughtful people who are so focused on making a difference in their own way, using their power as they see fit. Together we’re pushing ahead, towards the dream, enjoying the journey, and acknowledging these are special days, days which I will always hold dear.
After 13 years, I’m lucky to be in such a good place with this design career. Much love to all of you who have helped make it all possible. Here we go!
The Sprinter x 20
We filmed The Sprinter on handheld Super 8mm on May 18, 2003. Our story of living in an age of mass media, data smog, and oversupply of information:
Act I: Melody, Interruption
Act II: Grind, Overload
Act III: The Release
A fifteen-minute short film about an excursion from inside the city to out. My first rally realized creative act and the last time I played music. And one of my favorite projects with Jason Hardy. Twenty years later, our oversupply of information has only increased with the need for release ever present. Reclaim your time, run hard, for you and only you, repeat.
Protect Our Land and Water
The Bold Alliance is a network of small and mighty groups in rural states working to protect the land and water.
We fight fossil fuel projects, protect landowners against eminent domain abuse, and work for clean energy solutions while building an engaged base of citizens who care about the land, water, and climate change.
The Bold Alliance works with an unlikely alliances of farmers, ranchers, fisherfolk, Tribal nations, and progressives to stop risky fossil fuel and industrial food projects with the grassroots style we used to stop Keystone XL.
I LOVE NU
New work for the University of Nebraska:
I don’t know where I’d be without the university. My time in Lincoln as a Husker was extremely formative. Full of smart stuff, dumb stuff, growing stuff, changing stuff, etc. Being pushed. Challenged. Getting out of my comfort zone on a scale that was big. Still Nebraska. Still a city I was familiar with. But different. This place of higher learning was where I learned, lived, and started my path to where I am today. I owe it a lot. And I won’t forget it.
We Love Our Sons and Daughters
Project launch for Campaign Zero:
Michael O.D. Brown was eighteen, black, unarmed and gunned down in broad daylight, around noon on August 9, 2014, in the middle of Canfield Drive by a Ferguson police officer. In the days that followed, no police report was released, only a video by the Ferguson police department assassinating Michael’s character. His brutal killing sparked protests all over the country, gaining international attention and support.
The Blackest Book Club
Project launch for Campaign Zero and Reconstruction:

Pod Save the People is hosting a month-long podcast series in February lifting up books from the list that changed the way the hosts see the world, and inspire and transform the inner and external work they do today.
