i have been invited to do a talk at MADfest this coming saturday… in the city of deventer
a new festival combining ‘music & design’ (get it? mad) and all things in between & i have (drum roll) two!! free!! tickets!! to give away, yes you heard completely ‘free’!!
just send me your all-time favourite joke, the two which make me laugh the most get the tickets, it’s that easy… come on then (deadline is friday morning)
an online film festival for gif animations, entries are open during november… the jury includes (bizarrely) inez & vinoodh
(tip via ‘pepijn rooijens’)
officially launched last week: amsterdamdam …contains over 800 images from the Dam Square in Amsterdam. The sources of the website are seven historic and various private archives…
a wonderful idea and very well executed too (link via the designer himself: the very talented ‘hans gremmen’)
a historical illustrated alphabet of london, created around 1850
one shop which i pass everyday in amsterdam is local ‘vinyl junkies’ paradise waxwell records
a record store with a small window space that has always been used to maximum effect with a series of 24 sleeves either based on a colour (queensday orange) or a theme such as ‘covers featuring fruit’ and so on… it’s one of my favourites to look out for (images borrowed from their facebook page)
