So, check out the new iPhone project “SF Heroes”. I worked the UI & Graphic Design for this project created by Cosmicube and for the city of San Francisco’s Department of Emergency Management.

Riffing on social gaming mobile applications such as FarmVille and FourSquare, San Francisco wants to reward you for disaster preparation – not with money, but with digital satisfaction.

Employing a motivational method known to tech industry aficionados as “gamification,” The City’s Department of Emergency Management said a new app called SF Heroes will be available for the iPhone on Friday, with an Android version coming in spring. The game allows users to connect with friends and complete tasks through games and in real life, earning them “badges” that rank them against online counterparts.

They wanted a fun comicbook look. It’s a little retro and a lot bold. This app available on iTunes now, and for Android later in the year. ~G

I’m angry, and honestly jealous, of the money that flows thru these buildings called the Financial District. It upsets me that I see someone wearing a $2,000 suit, and I struggle just to pay my bills. But, those are my issues.

Call me lazy, but I think I’ll just buy these protesters some supplies. (i.e. Water, deodorant & coffee). My head needs to wrap around how they could protest, better. I want to see a strong voice, instead of the patchouli-oiled-up dude tripping and twirling on the corner, feeding his parrot.

People are angry, and people are trying to do something about it. Currently there’s a block of tents along Market St., in front of the Federal bldg, right by the Bart Embarcadero Station entrance. The protest is slowly growing, and with the evident police presence, now downtown (in laced-up booted, pre-riot outfits. But, dogs, helmets & clubs within close reach.), this protest is probably going to stay around a bit.

There’s an unsettling energy in the area, maybe I should take up twirling in anger myself, and tweet about it.

Anyways, I have a blog and that’s my 2 cent opinion.

My attempt at robots taking over the world humor. All we gotta do know is arm them, then we’re finished.

This is an ode to our boxer, Buster, who passed last year. Also, testing a new Wacom tablet. The line work is a little too sketchy for me but, fun to experiment with it.
So, the new plan for this strip is to have a strip once a week, and misc drawings during the week. so, check in often, and share it like crazy.
