Expose yourself...

...to a few cool things if you’re an art director. If you’re not, well, do it anyway.

First: some Art Chandry funk that is the inspiration and reflection of most of the 90’s grunge angst-music design scene. This prolific designer’s work is crazy like a bag-o’-wild-rats-and-some-bacon crazy. Too many new peeps think design only started after graduating from SVA in 2003. Guess again. Does the guy have a website? Does he even need one? Check out a great book on his Lichentstein-on-steroids design style: Some People Can’t Surf.

Next, check out Visionaire. A magazine like no other, if you have, like, $250 per issue. Every issue unique and a limited edition. Flip through spreads online for inspiration and some cool photography.

Oh, did you need some music to chill with? Stream some Radio Paradise via iTunes radio, under their ‘Eclectic’ heading. Every genre known. Or really chill out with radioioambient.com, streamed through RealPlayer. Lava lamp and incense not included.

Lastly, logos. You know I love ’em. Brands of the World. Almost every logo you can think of in an .eps format when you need them most: Sunday night before a 9:oo a.m. presentation. Oh, and did I mention free? Don’t even wanna know how they do it.
