I’m super excited about the interior design work on the Global Kids headquarters in NYC that is being finished today.

Global Kids gets a makeover
Here’s some quick pictures of some of the neat interior design stuff going on at Global Kids right now! Such a cool place to work. Above is the text from the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, that now adorns the wall leading to our kitchen. And here’s the doors to our men’s…
PMT does Thriller in Washington Square Park
Here’s a video of some fellow hip-hop dancers from PMT Dance Studio doing a really neat "Thriller"-esque dance performance on Halloween in Washington Square Park. The routine is much harder and more involved than the one I learned for the Halloween Parade. Awesome work, guys!
Yes We Did! New Yorkers celebrate Obama victory (video)
I had the pleasure of spending this historic night with friends, family and colleagues at the Global Kids office watching the results roll in from around the country. Then I ran off to a breakdance practice from 10-11PM. As I came out of the class, I saw this spectacle — a thousand or so people…
One more vote for Obama in Brooklyn
Had a very smooth time voting in Fort Greene at PS 11. Lots of other folks were in long lines, but my district had only one person ahead of me! Took me 45 seconds to vote, and another 10 to take this picture. We are still using the ancient "ca-chunk-a-chunk" mechanical machines that look like…
Geekcrush #37: DJ Bubblyfish
Last night at the Machinima Festival after-party at Eyebeam labs we were treated to the unique 8-bit DJ stylings of Ms. Haeyoung Kim, better known as Bubblyfish. I’ve seen Bubblyfish a couple of times before and have been blown away by her retro gaming-influenced electronica. Bubblyfish’s performances combine wonderfully retro imagery from old 8-bit games…
One zombie’s view of the NYC Halloween Parade

It’s definitely the best time I’ve ever had at the parade, and one of best dance experiences in…
Dancing Thriller in the Greenwich Village Halloween Parade
Omigawd, what an incredible time I had performing the "Thriller" dance in the Greenwich Village Halloween Parade tonight! Nothing can compare to being with 200 other zombie dancers, and at least five Michael Jackson impersonators, doing the Thriller dance for thousands of screaming onlookers. Here’s a brief clip of our performance taken by my buddy…
Learning the Thriller dance for the Greenwich Village Halloween Parade
Ok, I’m officially excited about performing as a zombie doing the classic "Thriller" dance routine. I will be joining a hundred or so other zombie-fied revelers in the Halloween Parade this Friday in Greenwich Village, courtesy of the nice folks at ThrillerNYC.com. My friends tell me it’s an amazing experience dancing Thriller in the parade,…
