GIPHY flew me over New York at the start of September to launch the new Giphy Gallery website I made for them. It was my first time back in the US since 2018 and a trip I certainly didn't expect to be making at the start of the year! Here is a quick journal!
Playing the Sims 3 on my laptop on the plane!
The view from my hotel window, look you can ALMOST see the Empire State Building..
The website launch event on the 5th of September at LUME Studios
I managed to convince the projectionist to sneak some Ozwomps into the display system!!!
Me me mem emem em em me me me… ME :)
Surf Club meet up hosted by Bri from Rhizome!
Visiting that green statue that M&Ms tried to copy once… you know the one..
My tour guide Sofi at the foot of the statue.
We also went to a baseball game at Yankee stadium - it was actually the first public sports event I’ve ever been to! There were a lot of people and they all wore those stripy shirts you see in 80s movies!
I got a bag of peanuts from the concessions stand! It was all very exciting!
