ART AND CULTURE
🎨 LACMA’s David Geffen Gallery Opening
After a multi-year construction project that literally goes over Wilshire, and invited many salty online design-related comments, LACMA is set to open the new David Geffen Galleries on May 4th.
The Museum is open til 6p, so if you can get a client or team there around 4:30-5p, you can wander around til close and grab dinner at the Academy Musuem’s swanky Fanny’s Restaurant down the block.
TOOLS
Real-time visuals, zero rendering
Browser-based motion tools are getting instant playback—no export wait. Think Figma, but for video. The line between prototyping and publishing keeps blurring.
Takeaway: Ship drafts publicly. “Good enough” in an hour beats “perfect” in a week.
