Up There is a short film produced by Mother NY and directed by Malcolm Murray about the diminishing craft of hand-painted advertisements. “It takes so much work that it’s kind of ridiculous… We try and do it as fast as possible, but that doesn’t change the fact that there are way easier ways to get it up there.” This quote by one of the painters was captured while he stood in the rain and it became apparent to me at this moment that Murray was showing us the faces behind the work we see everyday. As a graphic designer, I know too well how easy it is to be stuck in front of the computer, but also realize the value and payoff of working manually to produce handmade components for a design. Similarly, the production of billboard advertisements is now overrun by vinyl printers because it’s efficient and consistent. It’s nice to see that there is still a human hand amidst a world dominated by the digital medium. This beautiful documentary was shot with a Sony EX1.

Cosmic Excerpts is a collection by Ryan Todd from Darklord. The collection is a result of many years of disco, funk, and cosmic record hunting. What makes this collection unique is the way Todd documents only a portion of the record sleeve in order to create a gestalt of new perspective for some of these bizarre designs. Todd had this to say, “I would buy a record and if it happened to have weird, sci-fi artwork then I photographed a portion of the cover for the set, avoiding any words or identifiers as best as possible. If the record turned out to be terrible, then at least I was able to take away a cool image from the experience before donating it to Goodwill. It also turned into a little bit of a game, with random people showing up to see if they could identify records based on the bit I chose to show.”

Curious Displays from Julia Tsao on Vimeo.
Curious Displays is a product proposal for a new platform for display technology. Instead of a fixed form factor screen, the display surface is instead broken up into hundreds of ½ inch display blocks. Each block operates independently as a self-contained unit, and has full mobility, allowing movement across any physical surface.
