Jay-Z put it best: I don’t like it if it don’t gleam clean
6/08/10 •
[rediviva] was invited to snap shots at the Ferrari Club of America’s hang out session today hosted by the newly renovated Celilo Inn, in The Dalles. The Inn is situated high on the rocks overlooking the river and the Klickitat mountain landscape. The remodel of the Inn is lovely and this evening it was particularly sexy. Over 50 hot and heavy cars were here and mainly Ferrari’s and a few Lambo’s and an Alpha Romeo. Enjoy the photos, you can tell we enjoyed ourselves.

Right On, Write Out!

Leave it to the French to bring culture to the “out of doors.” And leave it to the rest of us to take cue from the French. En Plein Air writing takes place in the open air and captures a mood or a moment; fortunately for those of us in the Columbia Gorge, there is no shortage of inspiration.

[rediviva] is glad we’re not on a print deadline!
7/22/10 •
Through a series of funny conversations, whiskey throw backs and maybe even a couple things in common- I find myself sharing our ‘magazine’ studio space (Now that were not a print magazine what do we call it?) The [rediviva] studio space, with Josh Sampiero, Editor of Windsurfing magazine. I find myself feeling very glad that someone out there is still employed and operating under the print deadline stress of the print magazine world. I thought it be fun to pretend I could write and interview Josh sitting to my left (ironically enough, in Andrea’s seat. I guess it’s the Editors throne?)
How’s it going over there?
Uhh, kicking-ass.
Whats your favorite part about the upcoming Windsurfing issue?
I’m stoked about this issue. It’s my favorite issue of the whole year. There is this article I’ve been trying to get out for 2 years and it’s finally happening.

Virtual Reality: The Final Print Issue
7/14/10 •
To start a metropolitan-style magazine in a rural region at the onset of a recession during an historical transition in media was the ballsy, wine-soaked effort of three dreamers. In short, we wanted it all: To live in a geographic anomaly—a protected, world-class outdoor playground—while enjoying a few simple urban amenities.
While it’s a fascinating time to work in media at any level, the print medium is a harsh master. The deadlines, last-minute ad requests, indelible typos (“pubic” meeting, anyone?), and magazine distribution crack like individual whips each month. The much heralded decline of the print format is not necessarily met with angst on the publishing end; from our perspective, it’s an exciting evolution.

Bound around on Mount St. Helens’ dangly parts. If you’re up for a memorable adventure that entails a badass hour and forty minute drive from Hood River (motocycles are highly-recommended), and a 5.5 mile mini-mountaineering-style expedition, then pack some treats and head for St. Helens.
