a t-shirt tribute to the stranglers ‘heroin’ classic from jetset which i spotted on their site… it would have been better without the exclamation mark though…
me news
taken on me / me on
…during the Dutch Design Week 2009, (17-25 oct. the van abbemuseum presents ‘Take on me (take me on)’ a live-exhibition project…
It features four groups of ?artistic designers?, individuals or agencies whose ways of working fall outside the usual, conservative definitions of ?art? and ?design?.
Each group will create their own production line in one of the four corners of the original part of the museum and gradually extend their working process throughout the building.
The four groups on assignment are: Acclair, Conditional Design, Metahaven, and Orgacom.
conditional design (featuring amongst others ‘luna maurer’) are definitely worth checking out and the show also sounds interesting to me… maybe see you there, this weekend?

some appealing ‘damp’ looking images from irish photographer mick o’dwyer
…mostly though I took the opportunity to work on two things: composition and colour. I figured the subject matter would take care of itself and if I took things slowly a coherent set of images for each project might gradually evolve to tell their own story, and evoke a sense of place…
some random images from the world wide web
actually they are images of a web, now on the web…
