"These two words, nerd and geek, are frequently used interchangeably. However, this does a great disservice to all nerds and geeks who wear the badge of their respective anti-social lifestyle choice with pride. For this reason I feel that it is of the utmost importance that we correctly define the two terms.
Geek

A geek can best be defined as one who maintains an excessive fascination with a single thing or collection of things. I use the more general term thing only because there is a wide range of fascinations available which may qualified as geeky. Some have asserted that the object of obsession must be one that is not considered to be socially acceptable or commonly observed from the majority of inhabitants of any give society."

Misunderstood - "In My Zone" music video (Dir. by Redhead)

This is my homie @Misundersto0d aka Maurice. He's from Hawaii and is a producer/engineer that I've worked with in the past and occasionally the present. In his spare time, he likes to rap and talk about partying. Before he took the trip to DC, he called me up to say that we should shoot a video for his song "In My Zone", and I accepted. I've done videography in the past from school work and CBS News, but never in a music video fashion. I was happy to take the task to polish my skills.  We shot the video this past Friday in 6 hours, and I took HELLA hours in editing it the next day on my laptop.  Directing the video was an interesting task because Maurice was tired and apathetic from the gate. He doesn't drink or smoke, but after I gave him a cranberry/vodka and a Blue Moon, he was hype enough to be his goofy self and for me to capture his personality.

So on that note, here you go!



P.S.: Shoutout to Melanie Fiona, who we randomly ran into outside of a CVS Pharmacy as we were getting a new memory card. She's so bad. I like her looks.
