American Woman


Women are strong, independent, beautiful, caring and complex. They are an essential part of humanity, our society, yet 7% of women (3.9 million) are physically abused by their partner. That’s one every 9 seconds. This show is an ode to all American women who show strength on a daily basis, as well as those who need to see that there are people who care about them and their daily struggle.

the new 1's & 2's

Audio engineering company GGRP Sound has created a cardboard envelope that transforms into a record player. Once assembled, a 45 rpm record can be spun on it using a pencil. The vibrations travel through a needle which is embedded in one of the box’s edges and are amplified in the cardboard material.

These players were sent out to creative directors as part of a promotion for GGRP.

Graffiti Analysis (iPhone) - DustTag v1.0 from Evan Roth on Vimeo.


DustTag is an iPhone application designed for graffiti writers that visualizes the motion involved in the creation of a tag. Motion data is recorded, analyzed and archived in a free and open database, 000000book.com , where writers can share 3-D animated representations of their hand styles. All tags created in DustTag are saved as Graffiti Markup Language (GML) files, a new digital standard used by other popular graffiti applications such as Laser Tag and EyeWriter. DustTag is fully compatible with the Graffiti Analysis 2.0 software suite, which is available online for free at graffitianalysis.com and can be used to playback DustTag creations from the iPhone on your OSX, Windows or Linux desktop systems.


DustTag was created by artist and Graffiti Research Lab co-founder Evan Roth, and artist and openFrameworks guru Chris Sugrue. Graffiti Analysis is an open source initiative built in openFrameworks and is available online for free at graffitianalysis.com
