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.
As it turns out, my illustration was chosen to be featured in Digital Arts. I’m so happy about this that I can’t even put it in words…only in facial expressions and sounds.
Furthermore I’m working on a super cool project together with the awesome Angela Shetler, aka @ashetler. Links will be posted as soon as we’re done with the project.
When I came home after a delightful BBQ at Fløyen yesterday I found something awesome in my mailbox: A Cooky Friend from German illustrator and designer Sascha Preuß.
Not only did he send me the Cooky Friend (which was a free gift …how awesome is that?!), but he also sent me a sticker, some post cards and two buttons, all made by Sascha himself.
Have a look and share the happy:
Intrigued? Like what you see? Have a look at Sascha Preuß’ cool art.
First of all, Twitter is the best site for sharing cool stuff and getting in contact with awesome folks from all over the World, and you do not have the same weird pseudo social weirdness contracts as with a facebook account. Also Twitter is perfect for comedians to test new material and for whoever to share their work. Anyways and bla bla etc. I just found this awesome video via Twitter (maybe not the most practical and fastest way to print your documents, but surely the most awesome way):
Thanks tanketom for RT-ing the coolest printer in the World (not counting the 3D printer of course).
