Lovely type from Comfortable Lead. Not lovely in that Clarendon kind of way, but lovely in that fun, hand-drawn, kind of Urbn Outfitters kind of way. I'm a fan.

firefox

posted March 12, 2004 #

I'm doing my best to make the official switch to Firefox. I've had a few problems here and there, but I really enjoy the extensible search bar and the choice of tabs vs new window. Anyone have any horror stories with Firefox or has it all been smooth sailing?

Many positive thoughts and massive condolences to Mike Buzzard and his family regarding the passing of his father.

unicorns

It appears that the Unicorns show is cancelled tonight. Something about problems at customs or something prevented the past few shows from happening. I'm not 100% sure on this, but that's what it appears to be from their site. Tuff Luff.

no time for webernet

No time for webernet browsing today. Got mad progress on my kitchen and now I have to bust out some crazy HTML for work.

In the meantime, go check out some Murder By Death (this video is for a particularly ear pleasing song.. to me).

And while we're on the subject of work - what is everyone currently working on?

I have to agree with Daniel, the Mandarina Duck site is one of the more interesting things I've seen in awhile. Very arty but very useable - a rare combo.

The Space Invaders 25th Anniversary site is worth checking out for the navigation done in 3D style of the classic.

weezer / modest mouse

posted March 10, 2004 #

This reissuing crap from both Weezer and Modest Mouse has got to stop. I'm sorry but it seems like a real slap in the face to the fans that already own and happened to have kept your albums. Why do I want to re-buy the first Weezer album for b-sides that I scrounged the web for years ago?

Modest Mouse is just as guilty (though I am sure it's just the arm of Epic Records at work), new artwork and four live b-sides? Isn't this just a dupe to get people who have heard "Float On" to accidentally buy the wrong album?

I say put out a b-sides disc if you want to release b-sides, but stop this reissuing crap.

new CD's

posted March 10, 2004 #

Aside from going nuts on purchasing some CD Singles today (Hey, I had my retribution money.. it's okay) I also wanted to give a bit of thanks out to all the great mix CD's I've received lately. Ryan Hale, Mason Poe, Scott Harkey, Robbie Player, Jeremy Davis, Sarah Rose, and Jamie Holland (am I forgetting anyone?) all brought some massive goods. Always enjoy hearing what people like, and especially what they think I'm going to like. I'll try and post exactly what was sent to me at some point in the future.

The style of Marco is pretty cool - very cut and paste style but still pretty exact. Nice.

Lots of interesting short films at Ryan.nu. The "La Reve Girafe" has a great grainy feel to it.

AVP

posted March 9, 2004 #

If ever there was a movie that was completely empty, devoid of any substance, and still over the top ridiculously entertaining - it will be Alien vs. Predator. I'm not even sure why this movie was made - but I suppose if you can figure out a way to bank on two franchises at once, why not?!

I've never been a fan of the Nike style of shoes, they've always seemed a little ornate and ridiculous to me. However, something like the Onitsuka Tiger® line of shoes is more my style. Not to sound too much like Nick but those are some damn nice shoes (though nothing beats a good pair of Wal-mart brands).

I love it when Holland Design puts up a new splash - but how bout a "download as desktop" button, brah?

c'mon belcourt - get this one

posted March 8, 2004 #

While I doubt the limited release will reach my area, the film Coffee and Cigarettes looks pretty interesting. Basically a bunch of oddly paired famous people talking - just look at that "cast" list.. RZA, White Stripes, Bill Murray, Steve Buscemi, Tom Waits, Roberto Benigni.. bizarre. Thanks Slatch.

Nice illustrated portfolio works from I Am Olympic. How often do you find a designer with with an eye for intricate detail, a penchant for interesting lines, a home in Kentucky, and a birthplace in Russia? Rarely.

enterwoven

posted March 8, 2004 #

Some fantastic photography over at Enterwoven. The most interesting part about the portfolio is not that it's displaying photographic skills but rather hair, make-up, and style... three things that rarely get the credit they deserve for a good photo.

Who said Shockwave games were dead? Check out Cowboys and Engines - a 3D interactive environment. The Shooting Gallery game is actually pretty fun and somewhat challenging.
