isometric geometry

visit this show if you get the time im going soon cos i heard its incredible and it makes you want to cover your room in eboy wallpaper and just sit looking at the little people all day long
if you dont know who eboy are then you obviously are using the internet for the wrong things.

Those of you invited to be apart of this here is another link, which is a lot tidier than the one posted on Facebook

Next time for all you others

Feel inferior. Link to the youtube of the video below:

Muto

You should all probably bookmark his blog here. He's doing some work on the side of the tate modern at the moment in conjuction with 5 other street artists as some sort of show. Probably worth checking out.
Peace.

Repetitive geometric paterns, kind of reminded me of jon's final piece.  Currently exhibiting with French in LA but i doubt anyone will make it to that show...
Bottom 2 are French, less geometric but still repetitive.

FE/08 Graphic Com PT2

The book tables, all the students who created books for their FMP were
laid out on boards which were supported on trestles. A clean and
systematic way of exhibiting these items.

Fwd: Getting the geometric square slowly tumbling



So, ages ago I drew this text as a logo/graphic identity for a new club night called 'JUNK'. Id be drawing lots of little cubes when I was doing illustrations and wanted it to translate into text.

I found this girl called Rudi. She's a 3rd year at Middlesex & she was doing some pretty interesting stuff with cubic text. So i thought id give her a shout here because she took the time to talk to me for ages about the Uni and her course, and it seemed relevant.

The guy i did the design for ended up turning my work down and going for a kid-with-photoshop special which was a bit like, wtf, but also my first lesson in how a 'client' really wont understand why handrawn geometric type is way cooler than a downloaded 'splat' brush and a dodgey dafont.com font on top of it, which is probably going to happen a few more times id imagine.

Props to Wraith for this sweet idea.

P.S Crap, I tried to be smart and custom it. Can you please delete the last post so it doesnt have that pony white text?
P.S.S: Double crap, I left the stupid forwarding boxes on that last one. So now you have 2 to delete. I'm really not trying to be a spammer here.
