Can we truly see the Rainbow???

According to the Business Insider people of numerous ancient societies couldn't see the color blue, and current members of the Himba tribe cannot see blue because they never gave the color a name.

Check out the article below to get the full details.

With that information in mind, I created a card game called Name That Hue to help people see color.

But, how can you give a color a name if you don't see it?

Force it.

The Egyptians got much of the world to see blue with their dyes.

They forced blue onto the world.

I force numerous colors on people with the game's playing cards.

You look at a card with a hue and you have one minute to name it. Of course, to make it fun, there's another playing card that forces you to add something to the name you create. It can't be too easy.

It's like improv for geeky artists.

It will lead you to where it is being sold.

This one is perfect for people who are tired of the same old card games and want to try something new.

Name That Hue is a fun way to bring out your inner artist.

See the Rainbow.

It's in the Can!

We just wrapped filming on Rick Larsen's short film The Greatest Sandwich Ever Sold.

It was a lot of fun, too much fun, creating a new piece that has a retro flavor.

We looked to the Marx Bros. and Laurel and Hardy to create the overall tone of the film. However, it takes place in the present. It's hilarious just like its visionary director. If you're not aware of Rick Larsen's comedy, seek out his zine Fat Dracula. You won't be sorry.

Now, he's got a film in the can, and it's off to be edited.

I'm excited to see the final product.

Be on the lookout for announcements of when and where we end up releasing this film.

I hope to see you soon at the premier!

I made Business Cards for Fred the Mustard Packet!

I'm looking to promote Fred the Mustard Packet in different ways, and yes, I actually printed and spread around business cards. Do you live in or near Phoenix, AZ? Maybe you'll find one. If you do, take a photo and tweet it to @TommyCannon for a free digital copy of Forty-Eight Flavorful Moments with Fred the Mustard Packet.
