I´M THE NEW BLACK - BACK TAPE IS NEW AGAIN

Now this is cool. Finally someone found a way to play with these old tapes.
I saw years ago an exhibit of a guy that painted the actual cassettes and he really did an amazing job but this really takes it to the next level.
Glad the artist decided to turn black and not the other way around!

2009 social media wrap-up

Nice cartoon synopsis of the year in social media from Rob Cottingham.

:PHUNK STUDIO : 4X4 DEDIGNERS FROM SINGAPORE

Near 15 years after this 4 people studio started, the diversity of their work
is absolutely impressive. Book covers, Electric guitars, Entertainment Parks, Skateboards... these guys have no fear, quite the opposite, they seam to find an opportunity in every new format to practice their own style. A style that flows really well taking in consideration it is a mix of Manga Aesthetics, crazy creatures and western icons from comic books.
They exchange their roles in every project. Like a band in which every member plays different instruments. Actually they met in college and tried to start a Rock band but found out (to our great luck) they sucked at it. As you can see that was a great decision.
