Academy of Sciences

spent today with my family at the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco

my dad wrote his dissertation on fiddler crabs!

when it's laid out to see visually, it's trippy to see how we evolved from primates

word. wordism.

they simulate the rainforest in a domed structure. one of the types of butterflies hanging around.

aquarium dome they have setup underneath the rainforest exhibit

after our rounds we ate at the moss room, same owners as The Slanted Door in downtown SF. My dads and his mountainous salad.

mine. I <3 sea bass.

It was a good day. My pops, being the science nerd he is, was handy whenever I had a question. He has a membership because he works for the state. I can get a guest in for free. Wouldn’t mind going again.

Oh, and I totally want a pet Lemur!

This Album cover caught my eye. Took a peek at the mix. It’s interesting. It’s different. The cover fits the mood well.

I like it.

Collab X

Charlene — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:12:00 +0000

It seems like nowadays, the best way to get your name out there in fashion, music, food, anything that involves creativity is to put yourself in some type of collaboration. While looking through the web finding inspiration for a blog post, I found these collabs. Puts a second umph when people say, great minds think alike!

Stella McCarttney x Kids Gap [these kids are so darn cute! photo credit: gap.com ]

Jimmy Choo x H& M [photo credit: nitrolicious.com]

Beyonce x Lady Gaga [click on the picture to access the video on youtube]

I have to admit I expected more from the above collaboration, but maybe we shall wait for their next project???

Movement Project Mixtape Vol. 2

philup — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 12:01:33 +0000

Just like Gigi, I started creating music compilations to share with friends. Here is volume 2 of my Movement Project music mixtape series. If you missed out on the release back in September and want some chill music to kick back to or to take on a long drive, simply download the entire album by clicking the link below. My mixtapes are inspired by a diverse collection of artists and various genres of music. These are made especially for music junkies, like myself, and music lovers with open minds – as well as a gift for all those who have supported my Movement Project the past year. I am always on a constant quest to discovering new artists, rare remixes and tracks as well as re-introducing memorable songs back to memory. Watch out for volume 3 to come out real soon. Enjoy!
