Way to go, girls!

Today I saw the coolest thing in the National Gallery of Art: the Guerilla Girls portfolio.

I wonder if the MoMA would put that on display?

Helvetica LE Blu-Ray?

Has anybody’s limited edition Blu-Ray Helvetica shown up yet?

I should really be working on other stuff…


This is going to be part of a magazine cover for a student project. Because at this point it’s eaten up too much time for it to not go into some homework.

And a fine medium it is.

I got a call from the head of the graphic design department tonight. She wanted to be sure that when my thesis goes on display, the media should be listed as ”OpenType.” On the upside, she didn’t make me change it to something less interesting!

Why I love hocky.

1. Getting drunk and screaming.
2. Guns N Roses, Poison, and Motley Crue.
3. The playoff games end in fights.
4. When an injured man is rolling on the ground in agony, clutching his shattered face, it is an opportunity to score.

LET’S GO CAPS!

The best random text generator.

I’m spacing my thesis font and using abstract art criticism instead of random text. This crap is wonderful: it’s full of oddball words that either don’t exist or only a lunatic uses, and because none of it really makes any sense I can ignore most of the meaning.

IV

Why is the diagonal in the sans-serif 4 drawn noticeably narrower than the verticals and horizontals?

Anybody know where I can get Idea Magazine 325?

Does anyone know of a store that might still have an issue of Idea 325 for sale?
