We just wrapped this year’s Super Bowl Event Experience for Frito Lay and the Pepsi Design Center. This was our most ambitious Super Bowl activation to date and we’re really proud of how it all turned out. Thanks to everyone who helped make this event possible, and the great city of New Orleans for hosting the best Super Bowl ever.

Tost By Tostitos is a pop-up restaurant experience we produced at this year’s Super Bowl in Phoenix merging Tostitos product with high-end cuisine and chefs. For this project we partnered with the wonderful Roosevelt Row Arts District Welcome Center for our venue, and collaborated with many Phoenix artists for a series of murals and installations celebrating food and Phoenix’s culinary culture. Post-event this build and renovation was donated to Roosevelt Row to further their mission of supporting the arts in Phoenix. Thanks to all the talented people who made this project a reality.

Many of you have been to the New Creatures Oakland event space over the past few years (The NewNow).

The nice thing about the NewNow is that..well...it's always new. We've been working hard to create a new kind of space where people can (safely) create new online experiences, and put them into the world. Check it out.

It’s always a NewNow. This NewNow is an experimental arts and event space in Oakland, CA.

We are happy to now be offering a creative and affordable space to produce new online experiences, streaming live performances, and online classes (complete with all the gear necessary to create great results).

If you're looking to create a new live-streaming project, and need space, please reach out. We look forward to continuing to be a part of Oakland’s creative community in this NewNow, and beyond.

This article brought us back to the magic of Camp Tazo with RZA in Staten Island.

"There are moments you imagine for yourself as a teenager. Wild visions of success and wealth and coolness. Being smack in the middle some ultra-vivid “scene.” The sort of experiences that famous people seem to always have and the rest of us almost never do.

Moments like hanging out in the basement of a Staten Island mansion, watching The RZA, founder and architect of the Wu-Tang Clan, walk into the room with his crew. Seeing him dressed in a black leather jacket and boots, black jeans, and a black cap — no jewelry, no splashes of color. One part rockstar; one part austere Daoist."

A conversation with Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA from an exclusive creative meditation retreat he recently hosted on Staten Island.
