Today Mayor Bloomberg joined Madison Square Park Conservancy at the opening of Orly Genger’s Red, Yellow and Blue. The large scale art installation includes more than 1.4 million feet for painted, hand-knotted rope. It will be on view through September 8th.

If Linked In’s view of contextual and personal relevance is state of the art, truly we are living in a deep fog.
“If I could have @lulitonix every day for the rest of my life, I would never crave other foods: the distinct flavors, textures, & variety. Of all the juice cleanses I’ve done this one is hands down the easiest, best tasting, & most filling. Basically I’m in love & there’s nothing I can do about it!;)”

Congrats to lulitonix on this!

— Great advice to us all from Francis Underwood in House of Cards.
A good read from Reed Hastings in this Open Letter.
In case you didn’t know, Zach Braff is making a new movie and it’s called Wish I Was Here.
It’s worth it if we get a soundtrack as good as Garden State. Best ever for a movie.

"The iPod era is reminiscent of MTV in the ’80s and early ’90s — what initially appeared to be a sea change in music presentation was actually just a transitional period between sea changes. When the history book about pop music delivery systems is written, MTV will be a footnote in a narrative about how radio was usurped by YouTube. MTV was a music-video channel for roughly a decade because technology hadn’t yet caught up with consumer demand."

Was iTunes just a stopgap in the music-consumption revolution?
The best article I’ve ever read about consumer thinking toward music moving forward. This paragraph above was hard to read as as ’80s child weaned on MTV, but it’s completely true. We ain’t seen nothing yet. What this article doesn’t touch on, is sadly I believe the artist will still be short changed, making it near impossible to have a long-term and financially sustainable music “career”.
