Where I admire Jerry Seinfeld… | AK Media

http://aishakasmir.com/where-i-admire-jerry-seinfeld

Consultant / Writer / Vocalist. Where I admire Jerry Seinfeld…. March 19, 2013. I’m fascinated by the creative process. Mostly because I like getting new ideas and to validate my bizarre choices. In this clip, Seinfeld gives us a glimpse into creating a joke – one that has taken two years to write. He always writes on yellow legal pads. He always uses a blue Bic pen. He likes to play around with funny sounding words. View all posts by aisha →. Where I take a leap, again… →. Notify me of new posts by email.

This is where I explain the name change | AK Media

http://aishakasmir.com/this-is-where-i-explain-the-name-change

Consultant / Writer / Vocalist. This is where I explain the name change. December 11, 2012. Many of my friends have noticed that I’m going by a new moniker these days and may be confused by the sudden change. Here’s my attempt to explain. So, did you get married? No – I will never marry. Ever. Ok, then who’s Kasmir? Kasmir (kaz-MEER) is my middle name given to me by mom so I would have a cool sounding name. Aisha Kasmir just sounds badass, right? Alright. Then why drop “O’Brien”? And then drop the mic.

A little advice on how to use a podium | AK Media

http://aishakasmir.com/a-little-advice-on-how-to-use-a-podium

Consultant / Writer / Vocalist. A little advice on how to use a podium. December 13, 2012. I was privileged enough to attend an OgilvyConnect training for nonprofits on storytelling and public speaking last week. She did not tell us ladies to wear heels. Basically – don’t change yourself, change the room. It was subtle advice and perhaps unintentional, but I appreciated it. It’s no secret to anyone that knows me. Dans la vie veritable. But Bess didn’t. So, thank you. View all posts by aisha →.

We surveyed 100 scientists about what they hypothesize is the formula for a nightclub ad and nine out of 10 agreed: Boobs Butt No Faces = Hot Nightclub Ad So, I didn’t survey any scientists.

http://aishakasmir.com/where-i-take-a-leap-again

Consultant / Writer / Vocalist. Where I take a leap, again…. July 31, 2013. I’ve taken a lot of calculated and safe-ish risks in my life, and now’s the time for another one. I’m coming back to Vegas, y’all! So much has had to change in desperate times to get Vegas going in a good direction. The revitalization of downtown, the renewed focus on community engagement and maybe, just maybe, a political climate that will put our state on the right track with better priorities (education, community, civil r...

Where Madonna falls | AK Media

http://aishakasmir.com/where-madonna-falls

Consultant / Writer / Vocalist. March 2, 2015. I am late to the game, again. It might be a symptom of my age that I get around to commenting on things too late. Another blog post could be on how the internet has made it impossible to stop, ruminate and listen. Even that reference is an old one. By all accounts, she has improved with age: stronger, healthier, better vocal health, better vocal quality. All those qualities any performer and singer would hope to maintain well into their 60s or even 70s.
