"Call me Snake"

I think for the last 5 years I've been meaning to do this and I think a lot of people wanted me to do it purely based off the fact I made a choking poster based off Escape From New York. Well, here it is! I finally went and done did it and went full Snake Plissken all over Halloween's ass. Even whipped up some homemade shin guards and Snake's wrist watch counting down how much time he has until the microscopic capsules burst inside the arteries in his neck.

Took it on down to Jonathan Toubin's Haunted Hop at the Knockdown Center and shot about 5 pictures the whole night! The 3 below are Death Valley Girls, Hank Wood and The Hammerheads, who put on an amazing show, and the man of the hour, Roky Erickson!

Juxtapoz Lovin'

Okay. I know I've about wrung this baby dry with all the recent attention but, this really was a high point for me. I figured one more mention of this baby's unstoppable quest to make you laugh and save a friend, or strangers, life would be okay. It's been a good run but I swear I'm done with the shameless promoting of this thing. It is time to make some new work.

Bloomberg Businessweek and Snake Plissken

Snake Plissken and his fine-tuned techniques for preventing your premature death have been given the Bloomberg treatment and were showcased on Bloomberg Businessweek along with 6 other artists who have reinterpreted those average, boring choking posters into pure design bliss. Thanks to Sam Kolich and Venessa Wong for including me in this fine line-up. Click on the link below for the whole shebangin' article.

Escape from Choking in New York

Just wrapped up this choking poster project for a coffee shop in Brooklyn where I work a few days a week. The manager and I are fans of Escape From New York/John Carpenter films so we almost immediately thought of this idea and knew it was too fun to pass up. It’s been receiving some positive responses from people so I’ve decided prints are next. I’ll be posting about their availability shortly. Below are some process pics.

Hopefully this will clear up any confusion people may have had about my feelings towards minivans.
