COOL! Micrography: Text Art and Typography...


Image: Obama word portrait by Jeff Clark.

Wikipedia says "Micrography, also called microcalligraphy, is a Jewish art form developed in the 9th century, with parallels in Christianity and Islam, utilizing minute Hebrew letters to form representational, geometric and abstract designs. Colored micrography is especially distinctive because these rare artworks are customarily rendered in black and white.”

View some beautiful examples of this art form, here - enjoy!

Thanks to Mr. Mark Simpson for the link - cheers!

(WARNING: Video may not be suitable for minors and is potentially NSFW - view at your own discretion)

Apparently, today is Star Wars Day... or, one of many Star Wars days/events which honours the epic Star Wars franchise. Well, in light of that fact, I offer you the above Youtube video, originally seen on Gizmodo.

May the 4th be with you... ;) Cheers!

The Girl Effect...


A nice website link and typographic intro video (embedded above) to share with you all today. When you have a moment, go take a look at http://www.girleffect.org/ - a link posted to the GDC Listserve by designer, Danielle Autran. I think it's quite nicely done... a good use of typography, music and Flash(?) IMO, what do you think?

Thanks for posting the link Danielle - cheers!

'Clothing Optional' Wedding Social...


Good friends and fellow designers, James Gillespie and Beth Romphf are getting hitched this summer (in June or July I believe...)! In keeping with Manitoba tradition, they're having a wedding social on February 2, 2008. For tickets or more information contact James through his blog, KALAMAFRAZ. I'm planning to be there, fully-clothed with my camera at the ready. Cheers and congratulations to Beth and James once again!
