PROPAGANDA // Welcome to Survival Media (dot calm), the online nexus of all things related to Eric J Herboth. Thank you for visiting. As per usual, this site is under constant construction and renovation, a digital Berlin, if you will. All apologies for the lack of regular updates. 

UPDATE SPRING 2008 - Unfortunately it has been a year since any substantial SM website updates. Apologies to anyone who is still visiting. There are loads of things to update in the already absurd table to the right, but those will have to wait. You can look for my written posts in the usual places like LAS, Slate, et cetera, and there are some expansions in the offing. Hush hush for the time being.

Otherwise it has been an amazing year of great experiences and even greater people. Nothing makes a year more life-like than inadvertently walking through a pre-dawn "anti-terrorism raid" in the shadow of London's biggest mosque and getting "locked in" a pitch-black elevator in a flat at Jack The Ripper ground zero (only to realize quite some time later that the door was actually open) within the space of a few hours. For those in the know, the good news is that I did get the cat out from under the van full of SWAT team guys, and we did find tall cans of Cobra only minutes later.

Big ups to Kevin - sorry I had to cancel the Cambodia/Laos trip, but I promise I'll make it up to you (Burma? Burkina Faso?) and I'm content to live vicariously through your photo reports. Scout sends his love and apologies.

BONUS POINTS:


As always, many thanks to my friends who have stopped by to visit, if even for a few days, and a warm welcome awaits those of you who have yet to make it. I'll try and update this thing as often as I can muster, but as always email is the best way to reach me. You know how I do.

- Eric, Scout & Awahni



PRINTING - After years of doing design work for clients printing shirts, posters and just about anything else, I've finally cut out the middle man and begun printing myself. Please inquire about design and printing services for your project by shooting me an email.

FREELANCE WRITER & EDITOR - I have worked for and against too many newspapers, magazines, websites, newsletters, propaganda rags and bulletins to list. Areas of coverage include art, media, culture, music, literature, adventure, sports and lifestyle. I am always and available for hire.

WORLD TRAVELER - My travels have taken me across the globe and around North America. In the past five years I have lived in Missouri, California, Iowa, Illinois and overseas in Germany. My backpacking, hiking and all around adventuring have led me to exotic locations near and far, from the Rocky Mountains and Appalachia of the U.S. to the Sea of Cortez in Baja, Mexico to the Vancouver coast of Canada, the Alps of Switzerland and France, the Cinque Terre of Italy and the wet streets of Prague, Barcelona and London. I am always available and for hire.

WEBSITES - I do design websites from time to time. Contact me if you are interested in a quote regarding specific details, options and pricing.

BUTTONS - Custom buttons are fun and old-school. Read all the details for specifics on submitting artwork and payment.

ART & DESIGN - Services for graphic design/illustration/concept development/print layout/et cetera are available. Contact me if interested in having Survival Media design your project. For a random collection of commercial print and mixed media inages including paintings, illustrations, album artwork, poster and packaging artwork, website artwork and layout, print magazine layout and design and more, go here.

PHOTOGRAPHY - Both digital and photography services are available from Survival Media, both as individual projects and in conjunction with design projects. Please contact me for access to an online portfolio. For a random collection of images, go here.

BICYCLE MECHANIC - Far more reliable than the automobile and with a much richer history, the bicycle has been a part of my life since an early age. From racing and riding BMX, freestyle, mountain and road, bikes are where it is at. I have been involved in a number of bicycle reclamation projects over the past few years, intercepting bicycles and parts on their way to the landfill and refurbishing and/or recycling them. To just a few of those bikes, go here. Yes, the garage is chaotic. Several years ago I was the Head Mechanic at B&L Bike Shop, the #1 bike shop in Davis, a hotbed for two-wheel transportation. Read more here. My services have also been employed (briefly) by a small shop in Turlock, California, and at Bike World in Ames, Iowa.

COMMERCIAL PILOT - I am also a pilot certified by the Federal Aviation Administration with a Bachelor of Science degree in Aviation Science and an Associate degree in Aviation Flight Technology. I graduated as a Dean's List student from Parks College of Saint Louis University, which is the first and longest-running officially accredited aviation institution in the world.
