In 2005, a chance encounter with a Von Dutch employee led to a gig directing a European commercial for the LA-based lifestyle and clothing company. During that project, Kene got his first opportunity to work with Von Dutch Originals CEO, Tonny Sorensen, and fell in love with his vision of what the company could be and his passion for the life and artistic accomplishments of Kenny ''Von Dutch'' Howard. Together, Sorensen and Goldstein spent the next two years brainstorming and planning a variety of ways to introduce the history of Von Dutch and its amazing lineage in the arts to its global fan base. The effort led to the creation of AIR, their Artist-in-Residence program, and eventually, Planet illogica. For more on their story, and the story of Pi, [http://www.planetillogica.com click here].
