JON MORLEY
Jon is my doppelgänger, Jon Morley. It's scary how much we are a like. Jon and Nate were best friends back in St. Louis.
Jon loves argyle sweater-vests. Those pictures at the top are from Mike and Matt's Punks and Preps party, but Jon showed up all prepped out just by wearing his normal outfit, the same one he wore to his birthday party months before, as evidenced below:
GLEEN "TRIPP" MILLICAN III
Tripp is a really cool cat. He's one of Kurt's colleagues from USC's Interactive Media MFA program and he's Kurt's new roommate after Kurt moved out of my apartment about a year ago.
Tripp is a bit of an inventor. Those pictures are of his persistent POV video thesis project: iam
He's also a damn fine DJ. He spun records all night long for the 2005 UCLA Festival of Animation and the faculty, staff & students all agreed that he was one of the best DJ's "The Prom" has ever had.
Tripp's blog on his website is the main inspiration for my blog since he was one of the first people I knew who did such a wacky thing as keep a public online diary.

A whole bunch of us from the Animation Program took a field trip to Rhythm & Hues. It was technically a trip for the Maya class, and even though I'm not taking the class this year, I decided to tag along.
We toured the studio, watched the crew working on FX for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and then we joined the crew for Friday BBQ out back. I had lunch with Jon Morley and a bunch of his coworker friends, most of them I'd met at various other events like the James Lavelle show and Barney's. We talked a little about working at Rhythm & Hues, but mostly we talked about Wong Kar Wai, whom Jon has recently gotten into.
It'd be awesome to work at Rhythm & Hues, especially if I get to work with Jon.
