i heard you missed me..........


..........i'm back. well, maybe you didn't miss me, but i'm back anyway. i spent this week in new york at fuse, which is a brand identity and packaging conference. it was a really cool setting, located at chelsea pier #60 right on the hudson river.





i met some
really cool
designers/architects/authors
at this conference.





i met daniel libeskind, who is a brilliant architect & a true visionary who has done some really inspirational designs including the jewish museum in berlin and the ground zero memorial gardens where the twin towers used to stand. he was the keynote speaker who opened the conference on monday nite (4/16). after daniel gave his presentation and shared some stories, he did the "rockstar" thank you and escaped from the conference hall. i happened to be leaving at the same time and crossed paths with him while we were waiting for rides in the parking garage at pier 60. we talked for less than a minute, but it was still cool. check out some of his work.
