Thought Provoking

What did you think it said? Why do you think that?

Bigotry and hatred still exist! They will exist if we let them continue.

Fiverr

For all the broke college students, I found this website fiverr to be helpful to making easy, fast cash. You sign up, book a "gig" and have people buy them from you. A gig is something you will do for $5. I have my own account and noticed that a lot of people will pay you $5 to design t-shirts or logos for them.

I lego NYC

and other posts from the Daily Heller. Steve Heller used to be an art director for the NYTimes.

He has since done many things including authoring many books but he also has a daily blog called the Daily Heller. It has lots of information for the design-hungry.

"Christoph Niemann's I [LEGO] N.Y. is a tiny brick of a book filled with more than a dozen of what I call Legoisms, the artist's droll and witty interpretation of the iconic toy as New Yaawk objects d'art. It's all based on his "Abstract City" blog on The New York Times website, and the inventive Herr Niemann (Mr. Ich bin ein New Yorker) just gets better and better. You'll understand after you've seen this plastic fantastic conceptual Gotham journal.

"How to Design a Cover in 1:55 Seconds"

"How to Design a Cover in 1:55 Seconds." sped-up video by Lauren Panepinto, creative director of Orbit/Yen Press, revealing over six hours of "my onscreen compositing, retouching, color correction, type obsessing, all condensed down to a slim, sexy one minute 55 seconds of cover design."

Taken from Steve Heller's "Daily Heller": what this video vividly shows is how Internet technology and resources have truly accelerated the process. What is lost in studied contemplation is made up for in swift animation.
