2018/04/02

Television as we know it today is multi-platform, but obviously it wasn't always that way. The early days of TV were very experimental, groundbreaking and sometimes kind of dangerous.

Joel Tator, who has produced and directed thousands of broadcasts, wrote a book about the history of LA television.

Street artist Morley is responsible for art you've likely seen while walking down the sidewalk or driving through the various neighborhoods of Los Angeles. He's known for creating bold, typographic posters with a cartoon-like image of himself that he wheat pastes on utility boxes, boarded up buildings and other places that won't leave lasting damage. I first learned about Morley when a friend invited me to one of his pop-up art shows. I was immediately struck by his ability to so eloquently put

When you get engaged and begin to plan a wedding, you find yourself having to make decisions about this or that: Are you going to wear a white dress? Will you have a best man? Will you do the bouquet and garter toss? I'm getting married, and the planning process has led me to question why some common wedding traditions even exist in the first place.
