It's all about representing

Fresh from last week's meetup with Joseph Jaffe, I'm re-energised about social media, so read on in coming weeks for the new look site.

Meanwhile,tomorrow I'm undertaking a very interesting freelance commission for YMI Magazine.

I’m interviewing Mr Cartoon who has become synonymous with the US West Coast Hip Hop & R&B scene for his art which includes tattooing & air brushing and designing clothing & cell phones.  His art adorns some very famous body canvasses including eminem, 50 Cent, Justin Timberlake and Beyonce. Should make for an interesting chat!

I’m also speaking with Estevan Oriol, famed LA Photographer and Video Producer. Estevan is busy putting the final touches to a new movie “Ink”, due out sometime in late ’07 and most likely 2008 in Oz.

Both, I hope, will provide me (and eventually YMI readers) with an enthralling and alternative insight into one of the world’s fastest growing urban cultures.

Then, next week I'm interviewing an Aussie Hip Hop luminary, Sydney DJ Nino Brown, to get his take on the local Hip Hop scene and turntable culture.

I just hope I can *represent* them right!
