Portrait of the artist

I met Ian Brill when we were working evening shifts together at the Starbucks on the University of Pittsburgh campus. Back in, what, 2002? We've remained friends since then, as I've moved about the country and he has remained based in Pittsburgh and New York City. He has developed into quite the Renaissance man: footbag fanatic (if you call it hacky sack, he'll give you a lecture), devotee of physics and robotics, recipient of an MFA, computer programmer, musician, and as you see above, an installation artist.

I just wanted to congratulate Ian on his success. Most of all, his success in living live fully and following his muse wherever it leads.
