consider yourself lurked: mark p of prmtve

almost everyone i know [or should i say, everyone in my "social network"] has made the great migration to facebook. however, i am one of the few that still checks up on myspace, because, let's face it - that's where the style's at. facebook is simple and perhaps better for business, but you can't jazz it up in the same way you can a myspace. also it makes lurking a bit more difficult. and i love to lurk.

about half of my "friends" on myspace are people i have never met. no, i'm not looking to expand my halo3/d&d network or to find my future husband, i'm just style-hunting. if i browse someone's site and it inspires me, i add 'em. and sometimes, these stylish kids actual do something cool, and then i can put it on here. ya dig? and so i present, mark p - young, good looking, forward thinking, and all around man of style.

mark is cofounder of yet another one of those groups of kids in L.A. where you're not sure what they actually do, but they look damned good doing it. mark and friends kyle p and kyle n [i'd like to suggest some beastie boys-esque nicknames for differentiation] collaborated to start PRMTVE. right now prmtve exists in the forms of a website/magazine and some stylish teenagers, but the group is currently working on a clothing line and other partnerships. i asked mark about the name "prmtve" and this was his response:

"primitive in the websters dictionary is the first stage of any existance and i wanted to take that meaning and form a group of selective individuals that will express the art of fashion in they're own interpretation, being the first of this unique style. i also made it into PRMTVE [pronounced primitive] and took out the I's since i believe in team work and as has been said, "there's no I in team" to sum things up, we're a group of stylish young nonpareil individuals that are pushing for individuality. and PRMTVE is a movement for the world to venture upon in to reach individuality."
