Interesting type experiments, unconventional calendars, and polaroids of sticks (all the sticks were safely returned to the forest). Check out the work of Claire Nereim. Really digging her dateless calendars - wall calendars are for show anyways.
This is great to see - lettering by Maxwell Lord created the good old fashioned way, by hand. Like the old saying goes: “Fineliners before mouse clicks!” (No one says this, I made it up) Thanks for the email Max.
Photos of rural Russia by Alexey Myakishev. Sorry I don’t have a direct link to his work but you can see more of his work here.
I wish I could tell you that Cenci Goepel and Jens Warnecke created these images specifically for Booooooom Project #2 but the truth is these two have been at it for quite some time. Take a look at their stunning light drawings.
First of all, I just want to say thank you to all you regular readers of the site, you’ve really made this site something I look forward to updating everyday. Moving forward, I’m going to devote even more time to the site because, well, this baby is still growing at an alarming rate. 170,000 views in the past two months is no joke! Big thanks to all the sponsors/advertisers for helping offset my site costs.
In honor of the huge increase of spam in the comments section (none of which actually shows up thanks to the wonderful akismet plugin) and the appearance of spam text messages on my freakin cell phone (how?) I am heading to the spam capital of the world (the other kind!). If anyone needs me I’ll be getting tanned and jacked in Maui for the week.
I’ve pre-written a few posts, so there will continue to be new content posted while I’m away. As soon as I return I’ll post up the Project #3 gallery (had some great submissions already)! Oh, and keep your eyes peeled, I’ve got a bunch of fun stuff planned for the upcoming months.
Aloha.
I just added another little Apple to the family. If you’re looking at getting a new computer consider Apple’s refurbished inventory. They are returns that have been totally refurbished at the factory, certified by Apple, and repackaged with the regular warranty for less $$$. Free shipping too.
I came across illustrator Aleks Sennwald on The Lumper yesterday and found my way onto Sennwald’s blog where I spotted this great little drawing of Batman.
TYPEFLASH has brought my productivity to a stand still. SO FUN. You can play around with several animated typefaces, customize them, save them, email them, print them, embed them. Pretty much the only thing they forgot on the site was a bib to catch all drool. (Give my little creation a second or two to load!)
