About me:
I draw and design visuals for music labels, design logos, lettering, tagline copy, tooled improvised watercolors, shuffle ASCII ooperloopers, fold and glue "super origamic" characters, low grade site specific sculptures, licking beaters, build and play found instruments, improv video feeding, curating art + music, channeling in English and Japanese, teaching typography, finding rare OOP soundtracks, collecting fortune cookie messages. (if you got any crazy ones send a small jpeg file or just the text to fortunes@kiogriffith.com). thanks!I'm currently working on a series of screen prints.
Some of my work can be seen by clicking on the "pics" link by the profile.
