As promised, and as planned. The site/folio has gotten a little bit of new code. Moving away from WordPress and going all PHP and HTML. Take a look at the new design.
Something similar happened to my little blog. A little more orange, a little more similar to the clean look of the new site, but still WordPress.
Hope you like it. I do.
It’s been a couple of months since I last sunk into the realm of scripting and coding, which is tremendous fun. The folio and this blog are my playground for scripting and doing Web design when I don’t have any coding jobs, and right now I’m planning the new design as crazy.
I was never good at making (or keeping, for that matter) new years resolutions, but this year I’ve got several. 11 is my favorite number. Don’t ask me why, but the number 11 has been my numerical friend for more than a long while now, and since it’s the year 2011 I thought I have to make something special in the honor of this number. My plans for the new year are not only to do more illustration, and redesign the blog and the site, but also to start a new, additional blog, which will be more of an open project for others to participate.
I’ll be taking a trip to Oslo soon, to meet up with my awesome friends Superstar Ida and Ultra Magnus, as well as meeting Mr. Lord Bassington and Lady Nakrissimo. It will be a trip in the name of loads of different things, and stuff is cooking. I can’t say much now, but I will be posting more information as soon as I’m back.
Meow!
…or maybe just grotesque. Either way: Fantastic!
Thanks J.F. for showing me these pictures of a mask made by Art Director Mark Pernice and Sculpturer Christian Hanson
This is incredible and I haven’t laughed so hard in ages…so…now I wanted to share the joy with you.
The designer used Apple’s Photo Booth as an inspiration for the mask.
“[...]the idea was to take the 2D image that it manipulated and create a tangible face in a real environment, then in turn bring it back into a 2D image. Using Photo Booth on the mask itself may create some sort of paradoxal shift where I cease to exist.”
I can only imagine that it takes more than just a couple of hours to create such a mask. I’m really impressed by this kind of work.
A little German proudly presents:
The new web site is finally on line.
Shop and Sketches aren’t up yet though, but its too darn tired in here now. More work tomorrow.
More updates tomorrow.
