Type oozing with cool

I found this beautiful type on my travels and had to spread the word. Its work by Alex Trochut a freelance designer from Barcelona you can see more of his great work here

Look into the mirror

Wow, some really cool stuff from interactive artist daniel rozin the 'mirror' is made of loads of wooden tiles that make up 'pixels' More of his stuff here

a heart beat away…

McCain is known for his rash decisions. His VP pick is evidence of his “great” decision making. The scary thing to think about is that Governor Palin (VP pick and pictured above) is a heart attack away from being the President of the United States.

[From a heart beat away…]

Is this the next Vice President of america, God I hope not.

Pop up Type

WOW, I'm not really sure who made it, but the original post if from here

Bring back fur

A really cool look into replicating the quality's of fur in hightech means the blub goes as follows:

"The way this started was through the process of imagining fantasy animals; animals that could be genetically manipulated, part robot, part organic, how they would move in their environment and what they felt like to touch. Bart then took his (imagined) gun and "hunted" them, looking for their extra ordinary, high tech furs. He thought about tactile qualities like reflection, the way the hair grows and three dimensionality and took these characteristics, magnified them, manipulated and exaggerated them"

If you want to see some more of his work, or experiments he's been doing with Lucy McRae click here http://www.lucyandbart.blogspot.com/

Birthday Card fun

While making a birthday card for a friend I got a chance to play about with constructing some 3D type, or more type applied to a 3D object, and now I'm kind of hooked. I'm really enjoying experimenting with how type looks when viewed from various angles and while wrapped around shapes. I think I might even try to develop a typeface using individual letters applied to these pyramids (see the far bottom picture for my attempt so far) So I just thought that I would share this with the world and see what people think. Feel free to email me.

The Met's new ride

The Metropolitan police have done it again.

First scoda's now mopeds. I kid you not this is an actual police moped it was parked in Peckham with the policeman standing just round the corner from it.

It least its saving fuel I guess. But next time you think about breaking the law remember you could be getting chased (well followed slowly) by one of these.
