(Sort of) Recent Work
I’ve been meaning to put up some of my recent work, but it’s a chore that I haven’t gotten around to (one of many). Tonight, I dug up and uploaded a few things from a few months ago that I’ve wanted to get up here.
First, is the poster and website I did for the Vermont International Film Festival (VtIFF) back in September and October. I also established the branding that was used on everything for the festival. This included the logo, which I didn’t exactly redesign. Bill Simmon let me borrow a metal disk with an old VtIFF logo cut out of it that was used for projecting (think Batman symbol searchlight). It was burnt and lovely. I scanned it, reworked it, and added some modified type. It’s funny, there was an article in a local paper about the festival and they wrote “The VIFF has a hip new logo designed by artist [not my name]….” Oh well, it’s not a big deal — although I would have liked to get some ink. It’s not the writer’s fault (her writing is top-notch by the way) or anyone else’s, there was just some confusion in festival’s press release.
Way back in July, I designed a t-shirt for Seven Days’ t-shirt design contest. I didn’t win, but my design was one of the clever designs that did not make the final cut.
That’s all for now. I’ll have more up soon eventually. Right now, I’m focused on redesigning this site instead of adding more stuff. When it’s done there will be tons of stuff to gawk at.

Björk Poster Design Contest!
I know it’s short noticed… Björk is inviting designers and non-designers to submit a poster design for the May 19th show in Mountain View, CA. The deadline is this Thursday, May 10, so get cracking. I’m going to take a stab at it—must flex those design muscles.
I wouldn’t call myself a fan, but I dig her music and like the videos she did with my hero Michele Gondry. I’ve heard a few tracks from her new album on WFMU, it sounds good to me.
Speaking of Björk and WFMU, here are MP3s of her real debut album—at age 12.
