YES!!! I'm thrilled to see my signed LE Portfolio, "The Land that Never Was" go on sale at the striking new Disney Deco Store! Also smaller "sketchbook" note cards of my design process. The 20's ROAR again! @DisneylandParis Get yours now!
If you want to get a sense of the depth of "on demand" jaw dropping knowledge of Disney, watch @TomKMorris telling his JC stories (and me being a brat.) youtube.com/watch?v=c22mep…
My takeaway here is that "the future" becomes compelling when it becomes an "experiential ecosystem." "Tomorrowland 67" gave us a hint of that, but here, the negative of charging becomes a fun, seamless, (robot servers are coming) "shared future" experience for those who are…
The Tesla Diner reminds me that the future is worth getting excited about. This was my first time arriving and I couldn’t even find the words except ‘wow…’ This is exactly what I imagined the future to be. Charging my Tesla, grabbing a burger and drink, and watching a movie, all…
1992 with @tomkmorris . We took lots of research trips locally during the EDL project, like here in Senlis. The sun felt so good! @disneylandparis

"One more thing". In my review, I took exception to the speech he makes in that it could have been more about Walt's ceaseless innovation, "it's fun to do the impossible" etc. Seeing the closing mural, it dawned on me that no public company would want the audience to leave…
30 years later, I'm still doodling "Victoriana", only it's on a iPad! 😂🤪🤪😜
70th Trivia. Imagine owning a "lot" in Disneyland, as "Town Square Realty" gave away tiny "lots" of Disneyland Dirt as a grant deed. The office promoted real estate in Apple Valley, CA. When Main Street felt like a town!
1956. Looking back to a time when expansion didn't come with controversy. 🤣🤣
New Fantasyland 1983. Probably the first decorative "Key" that eventually inspired the whole collectible Key thing. It's really pewter.
Kevin, Jody and @RegisAlart. @disneylandparis does it again with beautifully sculpted figures. So much expression! Well done.
