Internetland is a wonderful place

Once upon a time, The Collective (a group of design friends in New Zealand) painted pictures and filmed the process, selling the timelapse film with the painting thereby letting the purchaser own the entire process, not just the final output. Somehow, someone in Internetland found the original video and showed it in Manchester as part of Oxfam’s Climate Change even (images above). Like they say: every bit helps. The Internetland is a wonderful place indeed.

Type on the Moon

There’s been a bunch of chatter about the ‘other’ poster for the brilliant film Moon. Which, if I am being honest is the main reason I went to see the film, and boy is a visual feast, specifically the typography and the interfaces. I hunted about and found that FontFeed has beaten me to it pointing out that it is Micro­gramma/Eurostile Extended that make the experience so original and, well, just right. Go see the film. seriously.

Where is the internet?

A beautiful 42 second film
