World's Largest Cribbage Board

2009-03-09T07:59:00.000-07:00

View Larger Map

As part of the 2009 Art Shanties Project. We set the world's record for the largest cribbage board. Gas powered ice augers were used to drill 242 holes in the frozen surface of Medicine Lake. In compliance with the MN DNR and the lake patrol, the holes were drilled 10' apart from one another in a non-linear path that circumnavigated the small community of ice houses. Players were required to move 5' pegs around the board while pulling the playing table (equipped with clothespins to keep the cards from blowing away) and the players chairs.

The GPS map above documents the path of the players of the first official game. Total miles walked = 2.8. Total playing time = 3.75 hours.

dICEHOUSES Shanty

My pal John Nussbaum and I built 5 Shanties as part of the 2009 Art Shanty Projects. Here's why:

One of the great pleasures in ice fishing is spending time in close quarters with your closest friends playing cards with a beat up deck of cards that smell like an eelpout and talking and laughing.

Nowadays, we hardly sit at the same table and interact face to face with each other. As families, we eat in shifts or on the fly. We communicate more through our phones and email than we do with our own smiles, eyes and touch.. With the increasing popularity of video game systems, gameplay has become less intimate as people sit on a sofa facing the television instead of each other.

By creating 5 tiny little dicehouses designed around 2-4 people sitting close together playing games together, we hope to rekindle the warmth and art of face to face interaction and gameplay for our visitors.

Each dICEHOUSE will be heated exclusively by the warmth of conversation and the closeness of the people within it.

Check out the dICEHOUSES bLOG for more info.

Cake Magazine Cover

1993-11-15T04:13:00.000-08:00

What did Chank do before he built his font empire? He ran a free music magazine called Cake. It was a big newspaper sized affair. This is my take on the Minneapolis scene circa 1993. Note the plea for help in the upper left hand corner. This image of me on a chair, over a pill strewn floor, with the noose around my neck and a gun to my head would become the first logo for No Alternative Records and spawn a bit of controversy (see Circle Jerks).

A New Portfolio

1990-11-15T03:31:00.000-08:00

So here it is, my new portfolio. Nothing fancy, but highly functional. It's easy for me to update. It's easy for you to see the my output in a nice chronological order. I stole this idea directly from Matthew Bottkol, a great multi-platform writer and thinker. The old version of my portfolio is here.

Most of my creative output started here, when I dropped out of the University of Minnesota's geology program and took up a job as a late night copy machine jockey.
