World Cup

Here we are, 17 days away from the 2010 World Cup … and it couldn’t get here soon enough. I’m sure by now, you’ve seen this Nike commercial on the tube or online. Did you know it was an 18-month long project and involved director González Iñárritu? Neither did I, until I browsed the W+K section of the interwebs.

Make sure you’re fully ready for the World Cup with this free iPhone app by ESPN and this amazing World Cup calendar.

Incase | Evan Hecox | Arkitip

evan-hecox_arkitip

Without a doubt, Evan Hecox is my favorite artist. Which, coming from a guy that couldn’t give you a favorite movie, actor, album, or band, I’d say that’s a pretty stout remark.

Love his style, the subjects, the attention to detail, the colors, everything. I was hooked the very first time I saw his art work and designs for Chocolate. I have the books and some prints. Between my sister and him as inspiration, they were two of main reasons that I got back into print making.

This video created for the recent Arkitip, Incase Curated is complete inspiration for me and the product ain’t too shabby either. So, hats off to all those involved in this project, it is top notch and made my day. Cheers.

BBC: Winter Olympics Promo

There isn’t a single thing I don’t like about this spot. The style, the story, it’s all amazing. Created by Marc Craste for RKCR/Y&R.

Think NBC will create anything this good to promote here in the US? No? Me either.

CL!CK: A LEGO Short Film

LEGOs will forever be on my favorites list. Especially if they keep making amazing short films and commercials.

Well done, indeed.

You know you’ve taken something from the curb too, imagine if you were followed and interviewed about one of your curb-treasures.

Inspiration: Rich Gemmell

This is why I love the interwebs … get to work, with your morning cup of coffee, make some rounds and then, bam! You hit a road block of great work.

Whilst casually carousing the internet storefronts, I passed the windows of FFFFound! where I saw the top illustrations of Rich Gemmell, that lead me to Booooooom’s post on the UK based illustrator. Great style, textures, colors and themes.

Feel it all Around

Sometimes my friends make things and sometimes these things end up all over the place. This is one of those things that’s all over the place.

Dock Ellis and the LSD No-No

Brilliant. Pure brilliance … all of it. The story, the art—the man was on fucking acid and threw a no-no. Dock Ellis is my new, favorite pitcher.

The count-by-count story was originally recorded for the NPR show Weekend America. More info here.

The Complex of All of These

Abigail Uhteg’s The Complex of All of These is: two months, 3,000-ish photos, intaglio and letterpress, handmade flax and abaca paper, german bradel binding and handsewn endbands, set to Ratatat. Wow, is really all I can say about it.
