Really enjoyed these one-sheets for some classic films.

Straight-forward layouts & warm hues.

Push the envelope, watch it bend.


In: Less, Quotes, Tech

“Almost everything: all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure. These things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.”

- Steve Jobs

 

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary”

- Steve Jobs

This mesmerizing video took three weeks to make. Try viewing it with and without the sound for entirely different experiences. The screen compositions alone are terrific.

The Modernist


In: Less, Photography, Pixels, Print Lives!, Yore

This book looks to be full of items I’d love to have hanging on my walls. Lots of minimal, forward-thinking approaches coupled with aesthetics of yesteryear.

Bogey and a Birthday


In: Film, Sounds, Yore

Truly looking forward to a night under the stars with the NSO and this classic.

Making its Wolf Trap debut, this Best Picture Oscar Winner and WWII love story will be shown on large screens in-house and on the lawn, with the full score played live by the NSO.

“I have found that all positions men take in their beliefs are profoundly influenced by thousands of small, often imperceptible experiences that slowly accumulate to form a sum total of choices and decisions.”

Things

Some incredible installs from Sweden. With all the varying dimensions of the items, these photos seem impossible.

Meyer May House – Grand Rapids, MI


In: Architecture, Yore

A few weeks ago, I was able to check out this Frank Lloyd Wright commission. Built in 1908, it’s a classic example of his “Prairie School” era. Wright’s long perpendicular lines have always been the first thing to strike me and an iPhone camera doesn’t do this one justice.

A New Hope w/Icons


In: Pixels, The Force

Brilliant work here, especially: moon and also the process of slide #5. Could also be filed under “Less” because it’s so concise.

Full-size.

Waitrose Packaging


In: Less, Photography

Simple, yet effective. I’m trying to imagine these in contrast with the rest of the cans on a supermarket shelf.

Art of the Title


In: Film, Motion, Pixels

A great montage showing the evolution of the title sequence. Some of my favorites included are Saul Bass’s Psycho & Vertigo, the visceral chaos of Se7en and the stark minimalism
of Alien.

Green Tunnel


In: Motion, Outside

This four minute video was shot over the course of six months on the Appalachian Trail (2,200 miles). So cool, and so on my bucket list.

Another Metropolis Ride


In: Metropolis, Yore

This concept vehicle would be another great addition for the imminent re-make.

Although at the price tag of $110,000, it’d probably end up being CG’ed.

One of my favorite experimental / electronic artists, Trentemøller and his track “Miss You”.. set to some great fractal effects.

Amazingly beautiful decay. This book is officially on my list.
