Inspiration is sometimes, something you find - perhaps an obscured
idea or found image, something unintentional and quite often accidental.
Make sure you don't spend all your time baiting the hook, ... jump.

This poster was part of a bigger project 

directed toward Nike’s efforts to centralize 

a font ( not funk ) bank for all Nike designers 

worldwide. 

The poster was created by sixteen in­house 

designers, each of whom designed a part 

independently.

 

All of the designs were then composed into 

the inspirational poster created for all 

in­house designers. 

The back of the poster highlights the font 

used in the design.

Today we had a visit from a 

young designer Mr. Sean Yendrys. 

A brilliant former student, Sean 

graciously came back to talk to 

us about the Montreal Biennale. 

It was an interesting discussion, 

which touched upon street art, 

the politics and financing of public 

art and performance, free speech, 

Banksy's et al and the history and 

traditions of Biennale's in general. 

I recommend that you all check 

out the Montreal Biennale site and 

familiarize yourselves with what 

the Biennale is all about. It's still 

looking for volunteers to help out, 

and it might be lot of fun and really 

interesting to get involved with.

low tech fun; a simple, inventive change from the whole 

blindlingly similar, commerce driven, pseudo-high tech, 

lame o, way too shiny, pop record, how does my hair look, 

all about the big sales, music video thingy. it's invention 

kids, and has a sorta hand made in the basement with your 

friends kind of, lets try it this way feel to it, big up !

treading that impossible line, between essential 

but cruelly dry information and dynamic design,

Dead Star, by Michel de Broin, is made from leftover batteries 

at the end of their day. I'm never gonna throw a battery away again.

from the everything comes from somewhere series ....

an interesting if tangential article that my more ruthless, and well dressed students may enjoy. 

one of the few charms of middle age ....  if there are any,  is finally being able to see how things connect, or at least suspect how they might connect, and also, noticing how there are everywhere, very fine, nearly diaphanous ( look it up ) threads, that join so many human endeavours and aspirations together.

like design and the cowboy shirt, enjoy

what a fantastic piece of work; funny and true in equal measures
