Feed Me!
My creativity needs to be fed so I can digest it and defecate new work. Ugh, that’s corny and vulgar. What I mean is I’m in the mood where I want to consume books, movies, music, exhibits, etc. instead of produce. Any suggestions you, my dearest reader, may have would be much appreciated.
Here’s a list of what I’ve recently consumed:
- Wristcutters: A Love Story
- Suicide and Tom Waits, ’nuf said.
- No Country for Old Men
- I didn’t like it as much as everyone is raving about it. On a related note, Cormac McCarthy, the author of the book the movie is based on, also wrote The Road. A few people at work read it, and it sounds right up my alley.
- Control
- Black and white and lovely.
- Textpattern Solutions
- Geeky stuff. They final came out with a book for the CMS that powers this site. It would have saved a lot of time and frustration if I had this before I built this site.
- Flash CS3 Professional Bible
- More geeky stuff. I’m teaching myself Flash.
- The Elements of Typographic Style
- Typography geek stuff. This doesn’t count because I’m always reading it.
- Futurama: Bender’s Big Score
- I had no idea they made a movie. I saw it over the weekend. Better than The Simpsons Movie? Maybe.
- Trailer Park Boys: The Movie
- That’s some funny shit.
- Idiocracy
- Brilliant!
- Mad Men
- I’ve seen a couple episodes. Sexy dames and dapper men smoking and drinking at a Madison Avenue ad agency in the ’60s.
- Decked Out
- An exhibit of snowboard graphics along side the original artwork used to create them at the Firehouse Gallery. Good but too small (as usual). I bought one of the exhibit posters. Burton Snowboards unveiled their Andy Warhol line of products and I vomited a little in my mouth.
OK, that’s enough. That’s all I can think of off the top of my head.
