Fog
Last week was pretty hectic, but this week, it has started to calm down. Lately it's been foggy as well, which is odd weather. I can't remember the last time I went out at 3 in the afternoon and it was foggy, usually it' s one of those morning/night occurances, but not lately. And a bit odd that it coincides with my unclear and "foggy" future....maybe I'm reading too much into it.
Here are some links that have just been lingering in my draft pile for the past week:
-Hey, look who's number 2 on the cities that need a fitness overhaul (fattest cities). Oklahoma City, that's who.
-Silent World. Very nice and minimalistic photographs by Michael Kenna
-Just-My-Type. Some nice and downloadable (in .ai format) type faces
-Top Fonts of 2008. Another list, a couple weeks late. but it's all goooood.
-The Murphy's Laws of Graphic Design
-How Not to Design a Logo
-Logos after the Financial Crisis
-The United States of Logos
-Ampersand: little zine coming out Kansas. Very nice. Which reminds me of Q and it's apparent eternal hiatus. I don't know what's going on with it anymore....
-Design in Democracy: a short blurb on how our government needs to utilize good design to properly communicate. I agree. Which also brings upon the revamp of Whitehouse.gov. Very nicely done (Here's a look at the old one).
-Manifest Hope: a look at some of presidential art from this past year. Pretty neat seeing some nice work coming out of politics, which usually has the worse of art/design.
-Shepard Fairey on Colbert Report:
It kind of baffles me to see that hit the mainstream. And I'm pretty sure that Obama poster has become the new "I heart NY," considering all the lame Obamafications I've seen online...
-Bike Lanes that travel with you. Brilliant Idea.
-2008 Feltron Annual Report. Everything about this I love. I remember seeing last year's and thinking it was a neat project, but the more and more I think about it, I feel the need to wrap myself around a project like this and include all the nitty gritty details in nice information graphics.
Quote of the month:
"Change is inevitable, and if you try to cling to something…you’ve just got to let go. Let go, go with the flow, don’t panic, take a deep breath. ”
-Kevin Calabro, taken from his interview in the Jan. issue of Sports NW, which I helped design....
