daily awesome internet finds
I'm Andy Thompson. By day, I'm Creative Director at an awesome company called onebluebrick ™ (proof). By night.... well, same thing, but I also tend to waste my time tweeting absolutely worthless bits of information to a group of random people who for some reason like to hear that kind of thing. I used to be in a band, but now record mostly noise.

Edward Sheriff Curtis (aka Pazola Washte) devoted nearly 30 years to documenting the lives and culture of over 80 Indian tribes west of the Mississippi. From this experience came a 20-volume collection of photographs and a silent film, both backed and supported by JP Morgan and President Rosevelt. He died, however, broke and shamed, with a short obituary that ended “Mr. Curtis was also widely known as a photographer.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Curtis How is there not yet a movie about this guy?
