Brand designer, creative director, author, strategic thinker, fashion designer and artist Steve Gordon of RDQLUS Creative, is taking his influential “Dropshots” to a new level with the MSSNGR exhibit at BLK. He displays large and small format design on canvas, multimedia pieces and selections from his “Dropshot” series of photography shot from his iPhone. Gordon, who has worked for such national agencies as ABC/Disney, T-Mobile and Phenomblue, will be creating a collaborative piece that night, and invites viewers to participate. “Help me out, bring your mobile devices, let’s record a video that night,” said the Omaha native. “See if we can capture a show-on-the-go. (Alprazolam) Everybody is welcome.” There will be a centrally located spot for people to drop-off their videos. Every contributor will get credit, Gordon says on a vimeo video. Gordon then continues with MSSNGR: BAG treating guests to his hand-selected tunes at House of Loom.
