The boney king of nowhere


Sick video with the usage of stop motion. Yorke could have easily become a dancer had he wanted to man!

music mondays: Edan Echo party





Getting more and more into film. After the DC dance shoot i was told to start watching as many music videos as possible. Now i consider watching music videos as part of my research to better understand film and various techniques. My research leads to a lot of cool new bands and videos so i would like to share with all of you fucktards out there.


we can now rot our brains together.

The video is a rehearsal from a new 20min piece divided into 4 sections that i recently choreographed. The title for the ballet is MicroMachines and Dinosaurs. A study of things gone wrong. We had a soft showing last weekend and i would like to thank everyone who made it out. Were still in the uncubation phase.

a very speacial thanks to my dancers. Thanks for all of your hardwork and dedication.





Kelsey were gonna get that balance in the 5z for you girl!

Lookie who we have here!



Natalie Portman
is on this month’s cover of V magazine and I can’t help but think that I have something to do with it.

All of a sudden she is taken a new interests in dance by using the best male dancer alive Carlos Acosta (whom looks like me if you look at him from the right angles) in her directorial debut in New York I love you. Next she is slated to play a ballet dancer in the new flick Black Swan with Mila Kunis whom was my co-star in another film titled Party Monster. It does not matter that when I say, "Co-stared" I really mean I was a back up dancer wearing a pleather red skirt with a silver star on my head. Something tells me that Kunis at some point on set told Natalie about me, and how I tried to hit on her even dressed in skirt. Confidence! All im saying is that Natalie is making a lot of choices that seem to be pulling her closer to my playing field. Luckily for her im a simple man. I liked her before she started trying to impress me with her dance skills. Flattered non-the less though.


Natalie(were on the 1st name basis now) if you are reading this I want you to know that the door is open if you wanna collab and then have dinner/date me for at least 2 years. Don’t worry...I don’t mind. S’cool. S’cool.

Thom Yorke Tuesdays with guest (F)blogger Paul Atreides





do Judge, Jury and Executioner (Echoplex Performance). That one's an instant classic. Or of course, you could always post 'Hearing Damage' again, because that song is still the jam. Viva la TY Tuesdays! -P

ps. I so wanna just say post 'Hearing Damage' again, because it's that fucking good. But I don't know. I am loving ALL of these new tracks and I need a record out. I'm dying over here. -P

Soft Showing this weekend




This weekend Urban Art Farm presents a “Soft Showing” of new works from freelance artist/ choreographer Brian Gibbs of TAGsf. The program is titled MicroMachines and Dinosaurs which is divided up into 4 sections. All 4 sections explore different themes of time and relationships through various parings or solos demonstrating how people respond differently pending on the situation.

MicroMachines and Dinosaurs will be presented in an "Unplugged" manner with minimal bare lighting, sparse sets, no multi-media, giving way to highlight the choreography and the dancers. Next year the piece will be presented in NYC with other top tier artists and I’m very proud to be sharing a program with them.

Tickets to the showing are extremely limited so please be sure to respond back stating what day you wanna come so that you can be insured a seat.


The showing is November 7th and 8th from 3 to 5pm at Urban Art Farm. Tix are 10 dollars at the door. Q & A after the showing.


Hope to see you there.


Urban Art Farm. 1345 17th St San Francisco, CA 94107

Thom Yorke Tuesdays: Hearing Damage




Thom Yorke Tuesdays are back in full effect. This weeks installment is the new track for a lil film called New Moon. I refuse to explain any further but ultimately it’s all about the music.
