Type Games

I found this type game on Jason Santa Maria's site. His site is amazing but back to the post at hand. This game is not quite angry birds but it might be for type nerds. Try to get a perfect score! Try the game here

DQM X VANS





Dave's Quality Meats and Vans equals dope. Both have street credentials and the collaboration makes a lot of sense. No gimmicks or hooks allowed, just simple quality goods. If you haven't been to this store yet, it's a must see & cop. The store is laid out in a fresh way and I didn't mind value proposition. Get you some! Oh and there's a BAR in the basement!

Relax X Reality




I designed this piece earlier this year and decided to make it a reality. With the help of Amelia Irwin, we screened this intricate design on Glo-Tone French Paper 19"X25". The 1pt. lines held up and came out better than I could have imagined.

Holga . D


I hope this camera gets made. It's a digital camera, retains the qualities and simplicity of the original Holga camera and brings back the joy and delayed gratification associated with good old analog photography.

Watch the Throne




New York is an amazing town! One minute you're at desk your chomping on carrot sticks. Next minute you're at the Natural History Museum Planetarium listening to Kanye & Jay-Z's new album in a reclining seat cellphoneless (oh yeah, they were confiscated).

High hats and cresendos were perfectly synced up to realistic animations of planets colliding, being born and other celestial activity. There was tons of symbolism and ambiguity. It was an allegory for this collaboration. It was like Stanley Kubrick directed Powers of Ten. I'm serious ya'll. At one point, Jay and Ye trade bars back and forth while two galaxies collide, interact, jostle and soon became one. Which can be interpreted as "Watch the Throne". The album is a triumph!

The idea of having your listening party in a planetarium is genius and pulling it off in an elevated fashion is nuts! The experience was completely immersing and overwhelming at times. As the lights came on everybody filed out, my friend and I chilled for a bit and behind us was Kanye West chilling! In my mind he was thinking, "These Beats are Dope."

The Lost Tribes of New York City



Good friends Andy and Carolyn London are in the MOMA! More specifically, their film is in the "Talk To Me" exhibition, curated by Paola Antonelli. They generously extended an invitation to me for opening night, to which I was like, "I'm F'n there!" This is by far the most eclectic and interesting exhibit I've seen in quite a while. Full of curiosities and treats even for the most jaded museum goers. Don't play yourself, go now! Click the headline and check out there film!

Takeaways: Create what you want or better yet in the words of the illustrious Humpty "Do what ya Like"

Geodesick Mickey



Listen y'all, Walt Disney and Bucky Fuller were great friends. So, I mapped Mickey's iconic face to the geodesic dome shape. Blam!

These designs were original created for a Uniqlo X Disney brand collaboration

Yep!


I created this type design a while back and shared it with a few friends. Now it's time to share it with the internets.
