Everything Everything – Man Alive

Last week the debut album Man Alive from Everything Everything hit the shops and  I have to say…that album is god damn awesome! I have been listening to it constantly on repeat for the last seven days and it just keeps on getting better with each listen. From the eighties synths to the unpredictable peaks [...]

Virtual Reality – Don’t Panic Competition

I have had the urge recently to try and expand my portfolio beyond projects that I do on a day-to-day basis at work. I feel like I need to do this for many reasons, the main one being yearning for a new creative challenge and I feel the best way for this, is to enter [...]

NYC 2010 – Laurent Nivalle

In the last few months there have been some great photos circulating various sites of a series called Le Mans Classic 2010, taken by Laurent Nivalle. They demonstrate great composition with some really nice colour alteration that give the series a really nice vintage feel. That said, I have a huge interest in urban photography [...]

Rolling Roadshow Posters

There are a lot of examples of posters around at the moment that take existing classic films and TV shows, and re-imagine them by focussing on an alternative context. Some are successful and some are not. When I think of a couple of favourite ones I’ve seen recently, they seem to have the same originator. [...]

WTF!

I like Minga a lot. Not only do they have a great choice in work to talk about in their blog, but they also produce some top notch stuff themselves. WTF is a project that showcases them as being a “laboratory of ideas”. It’s a charming project with a simple concept and just shows that [...]

Explosions Of Colors & Shapes

Nice little project from Portuguese designer and illustrator André Meca. His page on the Behance Network is almost a narration of how he got to the final image. I have picked this for no other reason that liking the image. Nice colour scheme, interesting imagery, very nice all in all. On a different note, looking [...]

Art Walk Of Los Angeles

Posted as a work in progress, the project Art Walk Of LA is a rebranding project by Aldis Ozolins across four media types. In particular I think the calendar works really well and the screen grabs of the website also look nice. I look forward to seeing it in all its working glory whenever that [...]

Illuminated

I am a real sucker for minimalist urban photography at the best of times, but especially ones taken at night. There is a certain quality gained from the florescent and ambient lights pulsing out of the dark and warming the surrounding areas or forming shapes out of reflections and hard architectural lines. Kim Holtermand has [...]

Learning Curve

Well, these last few weeks have been a bit of a life lesson. Since my site got hacked by the completely pointless organisation, the Kurdish Digital Army, it has been a struggle getting my site back to working order. If there is one thing I will gain from this whole experience, it’s make sure your [...]
