We can learn something from every TV show and film we watch, and every book we read. Some quality that our writing doesn't have, that we can perhaps carry over to our work.

Episode 30 (Video) - Nick Jaina at Portland Incubator Experiment
In episode 30 of our ongoing music video series we captured Nick Jaina's "Sebastopol," the first song on his recently released album "A Bird in the Opera House." It's filmed on the corner of NW 12th and Davis in a unique office space called "Portland Incubator Experiment," home to about a dozen tech entrepreneurs including our friends at Mugasha, who helped arrange the filming.
