If not now when

I spend endless time thinking about media I consume, thinking about writing, thinking about updating my website, about tweeting and drawing, thinking about projects and paintings… lots of thinking, not enough doing. I’ve been staring at this shirt (open in a browser tab) for at least two weeks now, just thinking about writing this post. My hope in saying this out loud (typing it in...

Better Sport Stats

I hope this isn’t some sort of sick joke. Long have I loathed the over-exaggerated, tacky, high-gloss, fo-brushed-metal sports stats and signage during games. Seeing these on tv should make the game a better experience; indeed improving visibility with a unique application.

Logorama, indeed! I need to view this Oscar nominated short in its entirety. This is amzing. The concept is simple, but I’m infatuated with the characters they’ve created from these (literal) icons. Phenomenal from start to finish… Mister Clean, the Green Giant… Ronald! Find more information at logorama-themovie.com. (via) Update: The full version is available from a site in Germany...

The Hummer is Dead (via NYtimes) →

G.M. is preparing to close Hummer, and its ABOUT TIME. The whole monstrosity is an execution of over-abundant design failure.

I know its all over the place (mainly prime-time NBC during the Olympics), but I can’t get enough of this Nike Ad… or the song, Ali In the Jungle by The Hours (I’ve been playing it on repeat). The full length song hits the pianist-geek in me; “Like Ludwig Van, how I loved that man, well the guy went deaf and didn’t give a damn”

I think I need an envelope for my business card

These cards, designed by 3 Advertising for Chef Scott Boswell, are compelling. If a folding, ‘menu’ format wasn’t enough, they created these nice little envelopes to keep the cards safe (I assume).
