If you know how to focus, unfocus.
If your tendency is to make sense out of chaos, start chaos. (Carlos Casteneda)

portfolio updates :
I’ve been working on updating my online portfolio (and generally thinking about what I want from a career and how I want my work to be presented).
The first round of changes are is viewable here. I haven’t yet added some of my most recent work, yet, nor have I figured out if I want to include some of my writing and video pieces.
UPDATE: Verb agreement. Who knew.

Having recently done an update of my own portfolio site here are some ideas for the organization on your site. I would utilize the CMYK element that you started. I instinctually clicked that thinking there was other sections. Divide that into the 4 sections. Bio, Print, Video, Copy. I've seen a few sites that use the CMYK theme and always liked that.
I've been meaning to reply to your comment on my blog, of course I haven't update it or anything in forever.
UGH....I blame the computer for my declining English skills.
Checked out your blog. Best of luck with the freelance venture. Are you a copywriter or marketing guru or both? I am trying to get my own freelance design stuff going again but that seems like it is going to be a long-term process.
So, I should check in to see who is actually commenting. No? Anyway, thanks for the tip Anthony. I've thought about that as well. And perhaps that will come later. Especially as I try to figure out how to integrate the video stuff. I'm waiting for stuff at my current job to take off so I can get some hard copies of that stuff up there. (I just did some art direction on a campaign for AT&T that rocks. As much as marketing to the government can rock, anyway.)
The problem is that I've got both this professional design side and then conceptual performance art side where I do thinks like drink a lot of water and pee in the street. Or kiss world AIDS statistics.
Something tells me these things are going to have to be different sites.

Okay, I'm sorry. Nothing personal, but I'm a grammar bitch. For hire!
