Comments Off on Submarine ChannelGraphic Design
The Submarine Channel has been piling on all sorts of inspiring content lately. They tout themselves as ‘world’s premiere destination for original transmedia dramas, documentaries and genre-defying entertainment.’ They recently posted a wonderful interview with the amazing designer/typographer Wim Crouwel. He is arguably one of the best at what he does in the world and has influenced and inspired generations of designers. It’s rare in this business to see someone stay at the top of their game for such a long time. Not to be outdone, Submarine also recently posted another great interview with Droog Studio. Keep an eye on Submarine, it’s nice to see a concerted effort at building some great content that lives beyond traditional broadcast.

“I truly enjoy outer space. It’s absolutely amazing that we now have the ability to send instruments out into the void of the universe to observe all sorts of interesting things. Asteroids! Moons! Planets! Dark matter! This is the perfect opportunity for a Carl Sagan quote:
“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.”
The footage in this little film was captured by the hardworking men and women at NASA with the Cassini Imaging Science System. If you’re interested in learning more about Cassini and the on-going Cassini Solstice Mission, check it out at NASA’s website:”
A wonderful little piece of motion design by Chris Abbas.
Comments Off on Jeremy DowerArt
It’s a wild guess but Jeremy Dower might be a fan of two things, dogs and shrooms (or LSD). I could be wrong but judging by his extremely trippy dog paintings I would say I have a possible shot at being right on the money.

Director, animator and compositor Eric Epstein goes by the name Najork and is responsible for this eerie ethereal video for the Memory Tapes latest track ‘Yes I know’.
