I learned from KOLO this new project since last year May's National Stationery Show, a portable travel notebook which combines photo storage and journaling functions using a flexible refill system. As you know, KOLO is almost entirely about photo archiving and presentation, they obviously did a great job to create clean and stylish product lines but most of these products are to be used *afterward*. You select photos, plan layouts, do scrapbooking stuffs, archiving and presenting the final outcome as a decor or sharing with friends and relatives after events. I was extremely excited to see how they would execute this travel notebook idea and come up with a final product, which you can carry with you during travel and making memories on the fly. I had a lot of expectations because bringing archival quality to a product you use everyday inevitably requires a whole new mindset. I mean KOLO can be perfect in their top notch material quality but an object you would use on daily basis subjects to a whole new set of hazardous situations especially when we are talking about travel. What a challenge.
I got this prototype Essex in small size (they have a medium sized one) a few weeks ago and tried to use it during my Frankfurt/Tokyo trip. Since I was going to taste what it's like to do photo journaling in real-time on this product, I carried it everyday along side with my Polaroid camera. I also used my Pivi-300 portable printer to print photos from my digital IXUS. The best companion to Essex seems to be instant cameras and instant photography is obviously going to come back as we are probably going to have new Polaroid films available in end 2009. Fujifilm is refining their Instax mini line while there is a rumor that they are working with Lomo to have something soon to be released in April about 'instant', not to mention Zink's collaboration with Polaroid (PoGo), Dell (Washabi) and Tomy (Xiao). IMHO, I think KOLO should gear Essex to work with instant photos coz you won't want to wait until you go back home to print photos and write something about your travel afterward.
Essex features the same wonderful cloth cover with a small window on the front. You can choose to have one of the following refills held by elastic band on the spine: monthly/weekly diary, ruled/blank notebooks, photo pocket notebook, etc. I think you can put 3 notebooks inside the cover but if are like me loving to capture everything from receipts, stamps, photos, restaurant name cards, boarding pass, tags to maps, the photo pocket pages will not be enough and it quickly blow Essex up into a thick wallet the elastic enclosure won't close. The tiny little back pocket on the back cover also seems to be useless in my case.
In fact, I should've chosen a medium sized Essex because the photo pocket notebook in small size Essex is for 3x5 photos so my Polaroids and even Instax mini photos don't fit well with it. Up to this point during my trial, I decided that I had probably mis-used Essex as a capturing tool for everything. "How to use Essex" becomes the next question in mind, and I'm sure this will happen to any user in the future. When you think about it, a clean and stylish product also demands certain usage restrictions, like in a beautiful KOLO album, you just don't put every photo in it.
Having said that, I still want to pursue my perfect photo journaling notebook with the following requirements:
works well with Polaroids and Instax mini
portable size but smaller than A5
pockets to store receipts, tickets, etc
paper good for roller ball, fountain pen and watercolor
soft cover to handle bulging contents
refill notebooks can be filed pleasantly to an album or archive system
customizable to personal style
enclosure not intruding front cover
photo and writing on the same page possible
clean cover design, tough to resist travel tortures
archival quality
I'm sure these requirements are not that far fetch, but execution will eventually meet design and inevitably facing lots of scrutiny versus brand identity and personality. Product design and innovation, a fun game to watch as a by-stander but I never forget to appreciate the ingenious hard work behind.

It was really only a matter of time before Buttercup went nuts.
Of course, lotsa folks figured the San Antonio foursome was kinda already there from the get-go. Certainly frontman/guitarist Erik Sanden was always at least borderline crazy, going back to “Dial-a-Song” days when he wrote and recorded a tune a week just for anyone with enough time on their hands to call a special hotline and hear a song over the telephone. Not to mention the stunt where he committed to playing a single song over and over again for 24 hours, just to see if he could. And the bass player, Odie? Goodness, where does one start? Sweetest dude you’ll ever meet, but not “normal” even by the most liberal definition of the word. As for the two straight guys, drummer Jamie Roadman and lead guitarist Joe Reyes … they’d have to be nuts to hang around with the other two, right?
And let us not forget all those “Grackle Mundys” — Buttercup’s handle for their legendary, no-two-alike, what-will-they-possibly-think-of-next very special … events. Concerts, if you will — though they were more like performance art music socials. They were usually held in some tiny art studio in or around downtown San Antone. Or maybe in somebody’s living room or, every now and then, just to fuck with the status quo, an actual rock club. What happened at Grackle Mundys? We could tell you, but unless you were there, you wouldn’t believe it. Come to think of it, most folks who were there — band members included —didn’t believe it, either.
But they did learn to believe in a band that through years of strange gigs, countless songs, and more than a little practice has grown into a moody, melodic, powerful rock band with a sound that is somewhere between the Kinks at their most depressed and Neil Young at his most ecstatic.
Four loons, five-years worth of “Grackle Mundys,” and, just last year, a damn good sophomore album that they actually saddled with the name, um, Hot Love. So yeah, Buttercup has been on the road to madness for a while now. But as Sanden outlines the band’s schedule for the year ahead, it’s clear they’ve now officially gone certifiable.
With two albums under their belt (the aforementioned giddy Hot Love and the previous year’s moodier Sick Yellow Flower), Buttercup will triple their catalog in 2007 by writing, recording and releasing four CDs (three generous EPs and one full-length) before the end of the year. From scratch. First out of the gate is the freewheelin’ rock ’n’ roll EP Captains of Industry — its very title a cheeky nod to the band’s lunatic ambition. Hot on its heels will be the largely acoustic Living Again (July), followed by August’s Camp Zama, an “experimental” live album which may or may not be recorded somewhere in West Texas, far from the band’s San Antonio/Austin comfort zone. The as-yet-untitled full-length, schedule for October … well, there’s no telling what shape and sound that one will take. The band’s kinda making this all up as they go. Truth be told, the whole campaign was pretty much decided on a whim with a quarter of 2007 already in the rear-view mirror.
It’s an ambitious little to-do list, to say the least — and a cynic (realist?) would surely point out that they’ll never pull it off. But there were doubters at quite a few of those Grackle Mundy fetes, too: lured to the shows by friends or curiosity over what all the buzz was about, but ready to call “bullshit” the moment the band broke out the ukuleles, asked the crowd to watch the show on monitors at the bottom of oil drums or led the whole audience outside for a musical parade through a dicey part of town. By evening’s end, though, cynicism was invariably dropped in favor of the warm, fuzzy embrace of the “Buttercult.” Buttercup fans learn fast that this is a band that thrives on the unexpected and taking risks. And they’ve watched this band grow into one of the best, most solid rock bands around.
“We needed to move the goalposts a bit,” says Sanden of the Buttercup’s four-records-in-a-year gameplan, noting that Buttercup’s previous one-album-a-year schedule felt like a snail’s pace to the band. “I think doing this was my idea at first, but nobody in the band needed any convincing. They were all like, ‘Let’s do it! Why not?’”
Ah yes, the Buttercup battle cry: “Why not,” every bit as much as their songwriting and musical chops, is what makes this band tick. It’s what made Sanden, Odie and Roadman — three-quarters of San Antonio’s late, great Evergeen — decide to regroup after a year or two apart and pick up nowhere near where they left off: With the slacker, goof-off rhythm guitarist (Sanden) recast as a take-charge visionary and dynamic frontman, and the whole Stones swagger traded for an unabashedly more fey and whimsical but ultimately more daring and mercurial Kinks fetish. “Why not” is also the mindset that made Reyes, formerly half of the acclaimed Alamo City flamenco duo Lara & Reyes and a Grammy-winning producer (for Freddy Fender, R.I.P.), decide to throw caution to the wind and expand his musical horizons with a group of guys long on originality but initially short on prospects. A few years and countless laughs and musical dares later, “why not” remains Buttercup’s answer to pretty any challenge they set their minds to.
It’s also the key to the characteristic insouciance that pervades their approach to songwriting, performance and, most recently, recording. The Captains of Industry EP marks Buttercup’s first attempt at producing themselves, with every note cooked up in Sanden’s freshly installed home studio. Reyes’ Grammy-certified production mettle notwithstanding, Sanden admits to finding the DIY method daunting — but ultimately exhilarating. After recording half a dozen tracks that went into the “delete pile,” the band had a bit of an epiphany while recording “Sun in the Sky,” a 7-minute epic reminiscent of the Pixies and Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd that Sanden describes as “scream therapy on a boat.”
The epiphany came when they captured Reyes beating up Sanden’s bathroom — slamming the toilet seat cover and spilling all his hair care products into the bathtub. “To my ears, this was freedom,” enthuses Sanden. “This was a realization that we could do anything we wanted to, and that there were no rules that we had to obey.”
Nuts? Yeah. But like everything else Buttercup has ever done — or even attempted — it’s all in the name of fun. In the name Art, too, of course, but first and foremost, fun. And should they fail … well, it still promises to be an epic ride.
“If we should falter in our quest,” says Sanden (invoking one of his musical heroes, Jad Fair) “we solemnly promise to wear our clothes inside out for a one year period. On this you have our word!”

Day 50 of 2015. My Collaboration Muscles & Mindsets program consists of weekly pair "workouts." At the end of each workout, participants share takeaways from their journals with the rest of the group via their mobile phones.
I had my first workout today and used our journaling kit for the first time. I was delighted to discover that the kit included a sharpener for the colored pencils. Thank goodness for Amy Wu, who put together the kits and who is very detail-oriented!
