Among his contemporaries, Elton John is widely considered the hardest working man in show business. While he’s been touring relentlessly, with the likes of Billy Joel and percussionist, Ray Cooper, on top of doing his full band shows & wrapping up the Red Piano gigs in Europe, new pop music from Elton has been strangely absent.
Over the weekend (Friday, March 19th, 2010), I performed a 2-hour solo acoustic set at Joe Sippers Cafe (Effingham, IL).
The performance was broadcast to the world Live, through Facebook. That very performance is now available to view online, at your convenience! Follow this link to view the show, in it’s entirety!
I have another Joe Sippers Show lined up on April 23rd. Check back often, for details about how you can catch this next show live!
I never expected a few innocent comments Elton John made, during an interview, could make me reevaluate what my thoughts on the state of our modern world are, but that very thing has happened.
I’ve been thinking about this lately. With 3D visual technology being pushed further and further into public consciousness with gigantic media forces like Avatar (and into living rooms now, yes?), I wonder what’s on the horizon for audio.
“Clip Art of the Month” for March 2010 is now up on WorldLabel’s Blog. Drawing inspiration from the new Open Clip Art Library Release, this new blog takes a look at Web 2.0 Design and what it means for clip art users.
The Web 2.0 aesthetic leaves a very distinct calling card on modern websites, and it’s important to examine why these elements can improve the internet landscape. The WorldLabel post fully explores these new features. Readers are encouraged to share their thoughts!

During the last few months, I have been actively involved in promoting the Open Clip Art Library through work behind the scenes, as well as “Clip Art of the Month” posts celebrating the contributed works for WorldLabel.
Fellow Fabricator, Jon Phillips co-developed The Open Clip Art Library in early 2004. From there, it has quickly grown into a massive collection sporting over 24,000 scalable vector images, all created by 1200+ artists from around the world.
My latest “Clip Art of the Month” post is up on Worldlabel.com.
With so much attention directed at Apple and their highly anticipated tablet technology, I thought it would be interesting to discuss Apple’s approach to content regulation and how it might impact the open source community. As you read the full blog post, feel free to share your thoughts.
