Too many legs under the table. Too many reasons for trouble!

Sup y'all?

I had a pretty damn good weekend, if I do say so myself. I relaxed probably too much and definitely enjoyed taking in the Super Bowl in good company.

First up via swissmiss, this graphic just has me cracking up. I can relate, even though I am sadly not totally up on the typography.









































I've found myself using Avenir for a lot of things lately, but apparently I need to look into Neutraface and Gotham.

I love love LOVE this most recent Missed Connection illustration. Mostly because this kind of connection could easily exist in my world.































Mostly I love the little creatures within the people kissing and getting entangled. *sigh* Adorable.

Next up, and I excuse me for not remembering where I found this, is some crazy art - "Strange Worlds" by Matthew Albanese. He creates and photographs hyper-realistic landscapes out of everyday materials. Hard to believe these aren't the real thing!






























































































Finally, in this lovely post from Oh? ... this photo captures my views on love almost perfectly.
















Have a great evening, everyone!

Oh, darlin'!

So I found some cool crap to show you.

I do a lot of wishing.

Next up, I've seen this chick on the webz before. It's pretty mind-blowing, but I've never seen anyone cry at any of her performances... I realize there's some historical significance there, and she IS pretty gung-ho about throwing sand around, but whoa.

What is this madness? I live in a bowl carved in Swiss mountain? Yes. It's bizarre, but the interior is way baller.

That's it for today, folks. I think that was a pretty solid post. Now back to the grind of finals. Only a few more days left!

Bowie in space

So I'm on a Bowie kick. So far I've been listening passively; we'll see how it goes.

First up is a couple things via Pikaland. Love the blog, especially since I won that awesome giveaway a while back.

Check out this charming video about Santa vs. cookies:

Keep Out of the Cookies (an animation) from Jessica Gonacha Swift on Vimeo.


Second I just really like this illustration by Scott Campbell.



Pretty cool, eh? I want to have a picnic with some clouds.

Lisa Hanawalt's art has me cracking up. It's like Richard Scarry on LSD.



























Oh and if you feel inclined to get me a holiday gift, I wouldn't mind some of these.

You're too cool for me, dude

Hello all!

Today is a weird day, yeah? Here's to hoping something wonderful comes along... there are possibilities, methinks.

First up, check out this video from Malcolm Sutherland. He makes some seriously cool videos. Found via OK Great. I don't quite get it, but I definitely enjoyed it. I wonder where the music came from and how they got it to sync so well with the animation...

These extraordinary bird photos have had me fascinated for at least half an hour. Andrew Zuckerman, you are the bomb-dizzle. Via swissmiss.






















I love infographics. And hilarious flow charts. And there have been a surplus of them lately, one of my favorites being:
