PROTO THE RAW & EXPRESS YOURSELF ISSUE
N1 O 2012
CREATIVE COLLABORATIVE / VERDE / LOFT5IVE / R.E.D. / KILEY J WINN
EDITOR’S LETTER
Welcome to the first edition of Proto; proto comes from the Greek word for “first,” and is commonly associated with the English word prototype, referring to an early draft, an original that can evolve into anything. And like a true prototype, Proto exists as a constantly evolving project without restrictions on subject or form. What Proto is today is not necessarily what Proto will be next in its next issue. Working on Proto gives me freedom to pursue endeavors that my other work prevents me from engaging in. The Raw & Express Yourself issue of Proto features the work of wonderful models, stylists, photographers & friends. One great benefit of starting a magazine like this is that it presents opportunities to work with many great artists, some of them are close friends with whom I’ve looked forward to working for a long time. -d

He creates styles that work not only for the client, but also with them. Kiley’s clients walk away with looks inspired by themselves, from their features to their lifestyles. “I really love the self confidence makeup and hair gives someone. It’s almost an out of body experience for the client. They are looking at a superstar, and they know it is them.” A dancer, model and public speaker, Kiley has hosted a variety of charity events and is a born master of ceremonies. In his own presentation Kiley is an original down to the last accessory. His range in the style spectrum – from theatrical to understated – has made his image unexpected and ever-evolving.

I am a confident person, sometimes 2 real...but as my friends will tell u...He’s a BITCH. no jus kidding, but sometimes! Get 2 Kno me and come 2 ur own conclusions. Who I’d like to meet: A person with a personality! some confidence, and some kind of style! General I’m interested in a variety of things... mainly Fashion, styling, make-up... all aspects of the industry! Music every thing from David Bowie to 2 live crew! If it’s dance-worthy i’m all over it! Movies I’ve made a couple...probably in the dollar bin @ stop n shop! Grab 5 dollaz worth! No really I love movies... MAD MAX beyond thunderdome... We don’t need another hero! Television I watch alot of things: Strangers with candy, unsolved mysteries... lol no really! I like reality shows like The City! I like Whitney. It’s hot that, that reality is theirs* Books I should read more books... maybe i’ll try something on disc.. I do stay up on the latest via Vogue, Details, and Nylon!
