Fresh in from Singapore, a little Steve tribute by Mr. Kobie Rhodes

Here is an art installation I did for a class in the College of Architecture called Art, Architecture and the Built Environment. The assignment was to use a found object and remove it from its typical "site" that you find it in. The result, is paint swatches taken from home depot and used as an actual wall covering. Yes I checked with home depot to see if it was ok.

Global Architecture Brigade

Hello all! As most of you know, I am currently almost halfway through my Comprehensive Architecture Project (CAP) project, better known as the 5th year professional architecture degree. My classmate, Joey Rosenburg, and I are starting a student chapter of the Global Architecture Brigade here at the School of Architecture at UNC-Charlotte. This student GAB organization consists of travelling to Panama twice in the next year to design and build a small community project (agri-tourism cabin, park facilities, etc.) We are currently recruiting members and starting the fundraising portion of our trip. You do not have to be a student or in the field of architecture to be a member, if you are simply a handyman or good with design you are more than welcome to become a part of GAB. If you are not interested in going and would like to contribute to our effort, I have attached a flyer that we have posted around school, and let me know if you would like to help!

Sincerely,

Spencer Warpzilla McKay

Video Footage Update from Singapore

As Kobie is adjusting to normal life and working at his bungee jump simulator back in Singapore, he is trying to find the time to edit all of the footage from this past summer on the trail.  Here is a clip he just sent me of a stream crossing near Yosemite NP.  

For those of you who are not facebook savvy, here are some panoramic pictures that I have recently compiled from the trip. I will be printing a few of them out for sale at an art show in nearby Huntersville next weekend. School is going well and i'm busier than ever. 5th year architecture is a comprehensive design project, mine is a finnish cultural center in D.C., I will try and post some images as the project enters the design phase. For those of you still interested, tom and kobie are nearing the WA border on the PCT and have just 500 some odd miles left. Their blog is linked to the top right of mine.
