Froghead Hangover at Domy Books in Austin

We just got back from our road trip to Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Marfa Friday nite. It was a blast, I’ve planned 29388729075230 blog posts about it but we’ll see how many I actually get to. Glade and I just went to the Domy Books here in Austin, she dropped off a bunch of new cards and I dropped off five copies of Froghead Hangover (reviews here, here, and here). They’re two dollars, get them while you can!

The show that’s up at Domy right now is called Libres y Lokas, I think my buddy Anthony Romero would really dig it if he was still in town. I also got a really well-made local book called Observations & Daily Life by Haley McMichael, Important Comics by Dina L. Kelberman, and books of really kewl drawz by Lisa Hanawalt and Deth P. Sun.

Filed under: Events — Tags: , , , , — William Cardini @ 10:33 am

Austin Creative Code, “an informal group in Austin Texas that helps artists learn to program, and empowers them to build interactivity into their artwork,” is having our second meetup this Wednesday, June 16th (tomorrow!) at 8pm at Spiderhouse. Go download processing, the free, open source programming language for visual artists, to your laptop and bring it with you! We’ll be discussing and playing with a processing version of “the game of world domination.”
