In honor of the 100th anniversary of Pollock’s birth, TIME presents a gallery of the artist’s life. See more here.
We want to wish a HUGE happy birthday to Jackson Pollock, who was born 100 years ago today.
Jackson Pollock was one of the first American artists to achieve a worldwide reputation, and he became an icon of the abstract expressionist movement. He spent his childhood moving between farming communities in Arizona and Southern California. At 18, he moved to New York, where he studied art and painted for the Works Progress Administration. In 1939, Pollock entered psychoanalysis as treatment for his lifelong alcoholism, and his work of this period was heavily influenced by C.G. Jung’s theory of archetypal collective symbols.
During the late 1940s, Pollock developed a groundbreaking abstract painting technique. He laid his large canvases on the floor and moved around them; rather than brushing on his paint, he poured it directly from the can or flung it in drips and spatters with a brush or stick. The resulting “all-over” paintings were an unmediated trace of his physical actions; they also did away with the artistic conventions of illusionistic depth and distinct figure and ground. Within a few years, however, and perhaps in rebellion against his tremendous critical success, Pollock began to re-introduce symbolic figures into his paintings. His life was perpetually marked by self-destructive behavior; he was killed in a car crash at the age of 44.

PostWarden is a relatively new app that makes managing multiple Tumblr sites, and Tumblr accounts, a breeze, with the added bonus of having a local backup. Because of this, it can be used offline and one can save drafts of their work before posting. It’s nice and simple, executed well, and gives the added comfort of having a local copy of all of this stuff. As someone who manages multiple Tumblr sites and accounts and never met a backup he was not thankful for, this is a welcome and needed addition to my hard drive.
The developer, Gabriel, was kind enough to throw some promo codes my way to give to readers (though the price is more than right in my opinion). Here they are, first come, first serve:

Patterns are hidden in plain sight. You just have to know where to look. Things most people see as chaos actually follow a subtle laws of behaviors. Galaxies, plants, seashells. The patterns never lie. But only some of us can see how the pieces fit together.
Today we’ll send over 300 billion e-mails… 19 billion text messages. Yet we’ll still feel alone. The average person will say 2,250 words to 7.4 other individuals. Will these words be used to hurt or to heal?
