I came home from last month's ASR with the dvd "Dopamine" from Insight. While watching it, I quickly realized that there were some weird things going on...underwater topless girls on heavy machinery while a pro surfer rips above..cool. Dustin Humphrey aka D Hump, the official photog, has some really nice photos from the shoot...

iLike and TuneCore are teaming up to help create more revenue lines for independents bands and musicians... this is good news.

iLike, the leading social music discovery service, and TuneCore, the leading digital music distribution service, today kicked off a joint effort to help independent artists make money and get discovered -- effectively becoming their own label.
This unique alliance leverages TuneCore's digital distribution model and iLike's music promotion and discovery services to give independent artists a turnkey solution to distribute, promote and sell their music. With this initiative, independent artists can essentially be their own label, as follows:
-- Distribution: TuneCore empowers any artist to distribute their music and videos worldwide to iTunes, Rhapsody, Amazonmp3, and other leading online music stores and subscription services while keeping 100% of the royalties.
-- Marketing and Promotion: iLike offers a range of free and paid music-promotion services for artists to reach new fans on leading social networks and platforms across the Web.
-- Making Money: Artists will also earn royalties when their music is streamed on iLike.com, Facebook, and other platforms where iLike is available.
How It Works: By submitting their music via TuneCore, independent or established musicians can sell their music in all the major online stores and leading subscription services, including: iTunes; Amazon mp3; and through Rhapsody, on Yahoo, MTV and iLike.
After using TuneCore to easily and quickly distribute their music to Rhapsody, artists will earn royalties when their music is streamed not only on iLike.com but also on iLike's unrivaled music syndication network, which provides music on Facebook(R), hi5, Orkut, Bebo, iLike's third-party developer platform ( www.iLike.com/developer) and other leading channels across the Web.

This Saturday at Luis de Jesus Seminal Projects, David Adey will be unveiling new work in a show called I've Got A River of Life Flowing Out of Me. The show consists of sculptures made from cutouts in the same realm as selected pieces from his last show, Atomic Particulars. This is a great emerging San Diego artist at a great San Diego gallery; make sure to stop by.
