New Inspiration

It's been at least a year and a half since I earnestly sought design inspiration or actively kept up with design trends that lately I've been down on myself for having let myself fall out of the loop. But recently I've found a couple links that has spurred my excitement and I feel are worthy of posting. My boyfriend purports he sent me one of the links a few months ago but I seriously have no recollection of it. Bad girlfriend am I.

This agency has latched onto some good things and I'm looking forward to seeing more of their artists in future. A few of the artists with this agency work with some lesser known but awesome musicians. I recognize La Boca who's done album covers for the DC recordings crew. Quite a few have these artists have cycled through my itunes playlist. I've always believed good album covers leads to good music, mostly because I've noticed any artists worth their salt tend to collaborate with other inspiring artists.





This site is great for classic design inspiration from the 50s thru the 70s. It's a blog site that continually updates their articles. I stumbled onto them while looking for 70s book cover inspiration. Totally worth looking thru.

Videoless

Been posting mostly videos lately so figured that maybe I can change things up a bit and maybe inject a little personality this time round. Well whatever little I have to inject. A friend sent over a link to a youtube hindi cover of common ppl that led me to the original version sung by jarvis cocker and i must say i'm kicking myself in the arse for missing that boat the 1st time it came around in the mid nineties. Must have been after the tailend of my britpop phase. He is one sexy muther! MREOW! Sigh, shallow as it may sound makes me glad to have my own little brit boy to contend with. Yum.

Tweet Tweet

I can't help thinking about how pointless twitter is after seeing this on current tv. Each time I tweet I really do have the guilty thought of who the eff cares? :P



Also check out this other brilliant video from current.tv. I love these guys. According to their website the age bracket for their target audience is the 18-34 year old crowd. So what does that say to me? Does it mean once I celebrate my bday in september I must move on to something meant for older folks? And what would that be? Vh1? Network television? Oprah? It doesn't help that I've been recently contacted by old high school acquaintances who all are married and have children now. shit. maybe i'm overdue for a bun in the oven.

omg like this is soooo kewl

I just stumbled onto this website that makes me kinda moist like warm gooey chocolate cake. i love this concept! it's a website that let's you mix and match any image from the net together in it's own drop and drag editor that lets you share with your friends. The interface is Flickrlike and currently it's mostly fashion sets but why let it stop there? I'm thinking interiors! art collages!! themes!!! collectibles!!!! the possibilities seem endless!!!!! Yet another time waster to add to my ever expanding list. Cool!
