A fellow DePaul IME student and friend, Izabella, so kindly asked me to join. The session began at 9am at the Aon Center. True story… First person I met was named “Noor.” And was a he. Needless to say it was a hillarious for both. After an...

Just returned from Summer Sounds: One-Minute Film Festival Screening @ the Modern Wing of the Art Institute. Friend and fellow All Terrainer, Ben Vogel, really brought it! I found this particular film by Ben edgy and thought provoking. It almost had the feeling of viewing a portrait within a modern tie-dye kaleidoscope. Love it!
