today.

mmmmmm hmm.

roadsworth-y

today's obsession: canadian artist roadsworth (a.k.a. peter gibson). he makes our local stencil work look like pre-school projects.

ain't life rand?

really into paul rand lately, for no particular reason except that one of his kids' books was part of a care package i recently sent to a new mama and it got me looking at his posters and ad/image work. for a guy from the golden era of advertising, he certainly nailed modernism.... and for a cranky old man, he continues to make his mark.

maybe he's why i like this guy so much.

avant crinkle pop

i forgot about this matthew dear record after i first got it. i've been burning it out this week, though, and today it seems particularly perf. he's playing in november at mighty with a live band, which could only be more awesome than his electro beats. they already stole my heart.
