hysterics in a bottle



"If you take someone's thoughts and feelings away, bit by bit, consistently, then they have nothing left, except some gritty, gnawing shitty little instinct, down there, somewhere, worming round the gut, but so far down, so hidden, it's impossible to find. Imagine, if you will, a worldwide conspiracy to deny the existence of the color yellow. And whenever you saw yellow, they told you, no that isn't yellow, what the fuck's yellow? Eventually, whenever you saw yellow, you would say: that isn't yellow, course it isn't blue or green or purple, or...You'd say it, yes it is yellow, and become increasingly hysterical, and then go berserk."

typotypotypo!

i spent my entire wee hours of the
morning reading through typo books
as insomnia sunk in deep preventing
my eyes from shutting. sometimes, i
really wonder whether it's the insomnia
or my constant ticking brain that keeps
me widely awake hungry for knowledge.

- -

anyways, for typo-amateurs i strongly
recommend two books i've read thus far.

- -

01. TYPOGRAPHY by ambrose/harris




a brief glimpse into typography,
and a very easy read, lots of visuals
to engage the designer eye in all of us.

02. GETTING IT RIGHT WITH TYPE by victoria squire



clear and concise, lots of comparisons of type and
room for the critic in you to be the judge of type.
despite little visuals it manages to pull you in.

my favorite witty paragraph inside the book?


"There are no binding recipes for type combinations.
It is a matter of typographic sensitivity and experience.
Expert typographers, as well as careless amateurs,
permit themselves combinations that would horrify
colleagues with more traditional sympathies"

the new cellphone

i've always been fascinated with things that visual excite,
as all designers do- we get bored easily with things around us,
craving for a constant shift of visuals and change. well, well....
one thing is straight, cellphones are becoming transparent!
so everything is see-through, how awesome is that?!



01. iphone concept



02. Lenovo-Poison



03. LG Electronics LG-GD900

(due to come out during the second half of this year)





04. More from designer: Mac Funamizu
