Brent Billock's Tumblr

I'm Brent. I do Internet marketing and run a stock picking community website. My job and heart are still in Chicago, but I'm telecommuting from Cincinnati. I do a little longform blogging at billock.net and I tweet as @BrentBillock.
I really like motorcycles, guitars, and good design.

It’s my first finished work of original music!

I’ll admit, hip hop is not my most natural genre, but it works for this commercial piece for a freelance client. I wrote the music for this video, and recorded guitar, keys, three-part violin and rap (yes, rap!). Then I added some motion graphics to the footage they gave me and edited the whole thing together.

I’d love to do more of these, so any YouTube Likes, reblogs or tweets you can throw at this video might help me get the client enthused about that idea. Thanks!

“Hanging Garden,” an art installation by Shinji Turner-Yamamoto, hung last year in the abandoned Holy Cross Church in Cincinnati’s Mount Adams. It depicts a live tree rising from a dead one in the middle of the deconsecrated sanctum.
The piece was honored this week by the International Society of Arboriculture.

This has me excited. Hoping one of my motorcycling pals will make a road trip here to see it with me.

I’d much rather be trampled by a beautiful giant giraffe than by an inelegant dragonish creature any day.
