Welcome to my daily blog.
This is where I post things I'm currently working on and thinking about.
I write songs, score films, produce bands, and make visual art and photographs.

I lead a sprawling band/art collective called The Cinematic Underground and run a small independent record label called Cut Narrative . I'm also an artist at The Made Shop with my brothers Marke and Zachary. Twitter @NTJohnson

Men’s Restroom. Ladies Literary Club, Grand Rapids, Michigan. Last month I saw David Bazan and Baby Dee at this club in Michigan as part of Calvin College’s Festival of Faith and Music. The show was amazing. Almost as amazing as this urinal. In all my 30+ years of public restroom visits I’ve never seen anything like this. Clearly this is some kind of sick joke on behalf of the founding members of the Ladies Literary Club. I can only imagine the lavishness of the women’s restroom in this establishment, no doubt adorned with plush couches, marble door stalls, and whatever other hidden and fantastic niceties are provided by all ladies’ rooms. I waited until the guy in front of me finished. I just couldn’t handle a conversation about who flushes, let alone having to deal with the penis proximity issue. Plus, I wanted to take this picture. (And that’s something you just don’t do when someone else is in the restroom, no matter how unique the urinal is.)
