CONSTANT SIEGE

Last night was surreal.

So, besides my hometown winning the game, my friend Noah made an appearance in one of the Superbowl ads (above.) Having loved the art-world remixing director Mark Romanek employed in music videos in the 90s, it’s a sort of honor to be one of the inspiration-pieces he’s now remixed into this ad, and I’m exceedingly happy that he cast Noah in the re-do. See original: Long Portrait of Noah Kalina.
