So here's what i've been doing:

That's an image i took in the Acaba Mundo Favela (trans: 'slum at the end of the earth') on the outskirts of Belo Horizonte, Brasil. Our studio project this semester has led us here, and I am currently completely clueless on how to insert an architectural proposal here. (more photos of this in flickrland) We'll get there eventually. 

Aika Washima has informed me that I am now the co-owner of a shiny new blog. So, to avoid working on a theory + criticism project worth roughly 20% of my grade, I am writing this entry to kick the tires on this thing. I'm looking forward to seeing where this leads (hopefully somewhere dangerous and edgy, because dangerous+edgy=blog success). 

So to start, I have questions for you people. For the sake of discussion (and to attempt to track you nomads down), answer, and then add a question. 

1. Where are you right now?

2. Are you employed? If so, doing what/where/how?

3. Are you attending (will you be attending) grad school? if so, where?

4. Why is Aika Washima a god?

5. Why is this blog entitled CHOO CHOO CHOO?

I'll start:

1. studio/north campus/ann arbor

2. yes. graphic design/for the university of michigan/with illustrator.

3. yes. michigan

4. a yellow coat.

5. can't stop the train. 

your turn. GO!

p.s. On the subtitle for this blog: I don't miss TCAUP or ann arbor. I'm kinda still here.
