Just got this letter from the Con. They sent my check back but still hold out the idea i'm on a list if space becomes available. Not likely.


Click the title for a link for a great article by Brad Bird on innovation. Awesome interview.

Added a flash animation that that brought me a little confidence if nothing else. Keeping it simple.

A great, thought-provoking interview. Love the point about giving the malcontents the chance to prove their theories. Also the part about Pixar teaching classes in Krav Maga to encourage learning outside your area to stimulate creativity.

I liked comparing Disney to a neglected Cadillac left out in the rain.

Great find, Ellis! Thanks for sharing! This is exactly the sort of thing I love to see on the TAG blog.

BTW, did Jeff fall off the edge of the world? We haven't heard from him in a while... he must be pretty busy.

Oh, I just read Jeff's latest Facebook post... he's got in-laws in town. That would explain why we haven't heard from him in a while. Also, I think he's been busy with his film.

Brad Bird--that hack??!?

Based on your Flash animation, you could lecture Brad on a point or two....

Well, maybe after your next one.

Marty, have I told you how scary your new avatar picture is? Those wide, sparkling-dewy eyes... those eyes... those eyes...
