Just for accountability’s sake:
Blog/Journal every day – Anything. Don’t care what it is, just blog it. And IRL, some observation about life, hand-written into a journal. I plan to upload pics of the journal pages.
Reader every day – So much good stuff in my feeds lately. I need to consume more. More consumption = better output.
Finish two books […]
Stay in School from Clay Parker Jones on Vimeo.
Because I’ve never shared this video on this blog (you’ve maybe seen it on my Tumblr, Vimeo or even on the video cassette that I still own), I’d like to take a few moments to embarrass myself. In 2002—my sophomore year of college—I was on an MTV program […]
Thinking this is my new “logo”. Came up with it after thinking about my resolution.
Here’s why:
C = Name. Favorite letter.
Mobius Strip = Neverending. Distance running past? Also, flip it over and keep going. But not in a dirty way, you dig? Like, a new leaf.
Hourglass = Finite nature of life. Speed. Competition.
Working on the serve from Clay Parker Jones on Vimeo.
Just working on my serve a lil’ bit. I’ve been playing more lately and it’s finally starting to feel right. Did a few calculations based on frame rate and it looks like I’m right around where I used to be. If you’re in the Chi and want […]
The Duck Game from Clay Parker Jones on Vimeo.
Here’s some Hoffman York/Chicago office culture for ya.
When things get a little rough, and we need to take out some aggression, we play The Duck Game. This is primarily a creative-wing activity (where I sit, which makes me feel good), and basically involves knocking a rubber duck off a […]
Next Friday is my last day at Meyers + Partners.
Two years ago, my boss, Michael Meyers, took a chance on me. I was 11 months into my advertising career, and Mr. Meyers made me an AE. Since that time, I’ve been in many situations where I was playing above my pay scale, and I’ve learned a […]
I’d like to tell you all just what the heck I’ve been up to for the past year, in addition to my day-job and my little ping-pong project. It’s a thing, or a place, called Hustlewood.
About a year and a half ago, I was wearing a walking boot and living in the world’s worst apartment in […]
Lots of art-related posts lately.
Here’s some new stuff that I’ve been playing with lately, with some of the original drawing done several years ago.

My dad, back in the day
Here’s the cool stuff. I did two pieces, and I can bring them together to get some cool effects. See below…

Some facts:
The number of communities is growing. “Communities” are nations, states, online communities, whatever.
Online communities are self-identifying; there are no immigration costs.
Self-identifying communities enable the creation of better, more targeted marketing materials.
Completely targeted marketing ceases to be “advertising” and is simply useful information, compellingly told: “Peak Marketing”.
Thus:
As communities shrink and multiply, the potential for “peak marketing” becomes higher and higher.
Added a page to my portfolio, called “Presentations”.
Hope to add more to it in the future. Check it out to see my finest PPT work.
