me news
rhythm & color
amongst the many talented creative people all around me in the ‘duintjer cs’ building where my office is currently situated, is mister ‘erik hoogendorp’ former partner / founder of design agency 178 aardige ontwerpers in amsterdam
since a year or so he has decided to go solo and get back to his roots, a move which i very much empathise with… his work varies from motion stuff like this wonderful experiment in stop-motion (using kids yoghurt pots) to highly crafted books and corporate identities, see more for yourself right here at jihaa, what it all has in common is a high level of quality and a real sense of fun…
3,449,527,133rd
two interesting infographics (or data visualisation, or interesting diagrams… or whatever the current term is) i came across this week: one from rolling stone entitled the new economics of the music industry, say wat appl egets 40 cents on every itunes dollar-euro sale!!! that is really smart and absolutely scandalous…

network week
again this year i have been asked to do an introductory session for photography students from the kabk academy in the hague as part of their ‘network week’ together with my good friend lukas göbel, taking place on the 10th of november 2011 at the ‘eye’ film museum in amsterdam, the subject is ‘collaboration’ between photographers and art-directors…
incidentally i also did a talk (on the very same subject) earlier this year together with my mate ‘ruud baan’, which has just been uploaded to ‘me stuff’ here, although the quality is very poor and it is in dutch only…
