design 1 & 2
interestingly, and as if somehow secretly synchronized ... , two former students e-mailed me virtually simultaneously with an item they both thought might interest me, or be of some use to my classes.
That they're both very talented young designers, and doing rather well further made me suspect a conspiracy of some kind ... regardless, here are the links, give the matter your due consideration and we will, in honour of Duc Tran and Mohammed Thiam, discuss the issue of " fair use " in class. Neglect at your peril.

how very Andy Warholian!
that's actually somewhat true.. warhol seemed to have gotten away with it and i don't see any referencing original photos anywhere near his work...
hmmm, but didn't Andy use the images in a completely unique way ? thus re-interpreting, re-inventing the image ?
yea true...
A truly warholian image would have repetitions and plain colors
That was bad wording on my part he
Duc really was one of your best students, it's true!
I said former students - not best, nor mine, you putz. Doesn't anybody read anymore ? Fewer magazines, more literature I say !
well played...
Speaking of literature,
Ive been reading Marcus Aurelius...highly recommended for anyone who's bored with Britney and Chris Brown!
@ Sean: yeah you putz!
