Terrific as always! David Byrne always fills my soul and I need to set aside some time to check out all these wonderful links about him. CMYK PD needs to be a show haha. Thank you for sharing all these wonderful things.

He just keeps popping up for me. Would CMYK PD be like Reno 911? Because that's the fist thing that came to my mind hah.

Cheers to the end of the semester. After reading this newsletter for several weeks (love it) I think you might appreciate this read by Shaun Slifer: “So Much to be Angry About: Appalachian Movement Press and Radical DIY Publishing 1969-1979”

Curious to know how was the process behind the animation 👀

I scanned the sharpie drawings, applied a gradient map, hid the reference lines and used the "create frame animation" feature in Photoshop to animate.

Love this! Thanks for the motivation, I just finished the first half of the program to attain my teaching license (😮‍💨) and am adding a bonus art ed specific class this summer, which I’m pumped for. Looking forward to the summer even though I’ll miss the students :’)

Nice animation!

Going through the five things this week, you could've legitimately titled this week's, "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end."
