Today my piece Nothing Is Nothing shipped off to NYC. I always feel a tinge of sadness when a piece sells and goes off into the world. It sounds cliche, but it really does feel like part of me going away. Enjoy it Digitas, enjoy.
Too bad Jean-Michel, you were a bright star who burned out too soon...
Johnny Marr, guitarist and co-songwriter with one of the greatest bands of all time - The Smiths - recently sat down with the BBC to talk about his guitar inspirations. Wow, it is so amazing to have the opportunity to hear Johnny not only talk about, but to show how to play some of the biggest Smiths songs of all time.
What a treat - this is just awesome.

With the new Wes Anderson film, The Fantastic Mr. Fox just around the corner, Spinner has compiled their Top Ten Wes Anderson Musical Moments. Awesome. Below I've included my favorite (from Rushmore, my favorite Wes Anderson film). The She Smiled Sweetly/Goodbye Ruby Tuesday by the Rolling Stones sequence in The Royal Tenenbaums is also one of my favorites.
What is yours? Let me know in the comments...
Wow, these posters for the amazing Dead Weather by the amazing Silent Giants are amazing. Buy them here.
The new book Never Use White Type on a Black Background explores 51 "ridiculous design rules". It looks pretty funny, and kind of true. Check it out here.
Over at the excellent Design Observer there is a piece which casts different actors as graphic designers. From Design Observer:
There's a great line in the Oscar-nominated film Juno in which the title character, contemplating the sort of family she'd like for her unborn child, resists the notion of "wholesome," telling her friend, Leah, that she was hoping for something a little edgier — like, say, a graphic designer. Truth be told, we did a little research and discovered that Canadian actress Ellen Page — who plays Juno — is, in fact, the child of a graphic designer. But still, it got us thinking: if graphic design's become so edgy as a profession that we're getting name-dropped in hit movies, maybe it's time to get serious about how we're really being portrayed. Herewith, our initial choices for some friends and likely suspects, appearing soon in Graphic Design: The Movie.
