The Wilderness Down Town

An interactive film/music video by Chris Milk: Featuring “We Used To Wait” by Arcade Fire

This site was designed with Google Chrome in mind and is built in HTML5. It utilises Google street view and merges the street where you used to live with an Arcade Fire music video. Reminds me of arty websites 15 years ago with the little popup windows. Pretty damn cool.

TypoShirt One; The Typographic T-shirt Compendium

TypoShirt One is about typography on T-shirts. It is definitely not the first publication that deals with the topic of “T-shirts”, but it’s the first one that focuses exclusively on the typography phenomenon in T-shirt culture. Only shirt motifs created explicitly with typographic means shall be presented in this publication. You can’t find so many examples of extremely expressive and fascinating claims, statements, type-images and “mobile posters” on any other piece of clothing. The transmitted messages gain a non-reversible strength and power through the motifs that are reduced to their substance, related to the form and content.

This book is edited by Florian Gaertner, Lars Harmsen, Ulrich Weiß, MAGMA Brand Design and will be published in 2010 by Index Books in Barcelona. The publication aims at graphic- and fashion-designers, but also at typographers and type designers.
