Chasing Nostalgia…
Suspend all disbelief. I don’t think I was ever after the idea of creating an actual game more so than actually creating a ‘feeling’. It’s simple, it’s plastic—but within it is imagination, a healthy dose of attention to detail, and well—a little piece of me. Here’s a little keepsake to remind us of when we were young and how to still be a kid even after we grow old…
Read MoreCan It Be Real?…
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any more real—it’s definitely still NOT real, lol. When I randomly came up with the idea to create a SNES game box a few days ago, I had no idea it’d be so well-received. I honestly thought people would think it’s kinda corny but maybe that’s exactly what we need right now. A little bit of nostalgia to remind us of our childhoods never hurts, I guess. So I took it a step further and created the intro for this imaginary Chronicles video game that must actually exist somewhere in an alternate dimension. I took some old photos I shot from the past, did some cool 16-bit-style stuff to it, added some assets I found from around the web and turned on the game for the first time, haha. I’m currently in the process of producing more game boxes for those who want to have one as a keepsake. It makes for a cool collectible/art-piece for the enthusiasts who support The Chronicles. Hope you like it!!…

Anyone that knows me will tell you that I enjoy collecting things, especially if they are nostalgic and/or remind me of my childhood. I grew up in the ‘90s and a lot of my time was spent playing Super Nintendo. It was always so cool to go to the store and see new games come out and holding them in your hand after they were taken out from behind the display case. Just seeing all the boxes and the box art was so cool. Lately I’ve been trying to consistently be in a creative space so one day I decided to create something that had a mix of both my childhood and what I do as an adult now. I thought it’d be cool to imagine The Chronicles as an SNES Racing video game. It’s completely unrealistic because the eras don’t match-up, nor would a game ever have these types of features or graphics but the main thing I wanted to do was create the box art for this imaginary game.

When I really sit down and think about it, the 2015 trip to Japan was probably the best, just in terms of sheer visual content and experience. I shot so much that trip. Even going through the photos now, I find it a very difficult task to really pull out […]
Read MoreJapan Over The Years… Part 1…
After chatting about it a bit on the latest podcast, I was asked if there were photos that I shot back then that I’d like to go back and reshoot. I thought about it a bit and was perfectly frank in admitting that I’d pretty much like to go back […]

Looking back on all the posts now, you’d think that we were in Japan for like an entire month or something. In actuality, we were literally there for only 11 days. You lose two days traveling to and from and so all you’re seeing actually happened within the course of […]

It’s finished….it’s finally finished…. I’m closing the final chapter on this project. Any and everything that I do with the Kanjozoku in the future will just be for me and for my own passion to pursue it. There are just too many risks involved and I have many in Japan […]
