Just happened upon this amazing collection of old photography/art books. I think I drag+dropped almost the entire site’s contents into our archive folder. Strangely beautiful images and great examples of early typography.

hitachiiconsOur very own blog-author and all-over nice guy, Josh Boston, has a completely new site with work never seen by the bloggosphere. This is just a taste of more to come, he has to shoot a lot of his work but this is a wonderful start and great work!

Remember that ‘other’ section on our site where we would interview other designers and creatives. It was called Profile. You don’t? Oh well, neither do we! Heck its been about one year since the last time we interviewed someone. So today we moved all that old content into our blog (aka where you are now) and can now be found in the section Profiles

 

If you really never have checked out the interviews, your missing out! We have some great content including interviews with the likes of Mike Mills, John Maeda, D-Fuse, Non-Format and so many other talented people. If we see the stats spike on this content, we will do our best to start bringing more interactions like this back to life and into the blog.

tixOn April 16-17th the F5 event is going on in NYC. F5 will feature so many amazing talents, it is hard to count them all. The conference is an extension of the motion blog, Motionographer, so it will be more focused on moving images. We highly recommend it!

SCAD student Collin Willis’s work’s got energy, I love his rendering of Black Slabbath – take a peek.

Just added a great new book to our site; Wonder Years / Werkplaats Typografie. 256 pages featuring the 10 year story of the Werkplaats Typografie. “narrated by a group of current participants, intersected by annotations, voice over and parallel readings..”

I love posting this application, just after my Google cannot design rant. It makes me love, really love when designers ‘design’ applications, and not engineers and programmers. In this case it was created and designed by mega agency Fallon.

 

This little beauty called Skimmer is an application to help you manage all your time wasting community sites that you love to post on. It runs on Adobe Air, which I haven’t got too much into, but this app has struck a new interest in it. I have to say, this application is very nice and is very well designed. The code gets a little flaky for me sometimes with a black overlay screen hanging on me sometimes, but a quit restart solves that. I assume in due time it will be even smoother, but for a free app this is the hotness!
