Minneapolis-based author Andy McInnis and his team are in the process of finishing up a book about how to start screen-printing in a snap and on the cheap. As many of you know, I am a bit of a DIY printer myself, so I’m pretty stoked to see if there’s anything I can glean off of it. It’s sure to be a great resource for anyone interested in the art!
Also, be sure to check out this video that he made about an ingenious way to clean a screen. Wish I had car wash nearby… Great stuff!
Found this great video produced by The Office of Charles Eames for Herman Miller showcasing the production of the classic Shell Chair from start to finish. The music itself is worth the watch, quintessential Eames. Nice!
While I was drooling over the iPad at Apple’s site. I stumbled on this great video created by Jesse Rosten, that features two of the awesomest inventions ever combined, the iPad and… Velcro. Cool!
Vermont-based Crafty Hedgehog created these amazingly awesome knitted items that takes dissection to a whole new level! Available through her Etsy page you can purchase knitting patterns for a piglet, an alligator, a rabbit or the classic rat and frog.
It’s been a busy weekend! I flew through the blue screen Saturday and Sunday, which I’m particularly happy about because my screens cooperated with me very nicely.
I also got half way though the third color details. One more round!
Next up… the other half aka the awesome part!
As always, Pre-orders are available through Supermarket. Orders will begin shipping this week!
FYI kids, when you’re screen-printing, it’s generally a good idea to actually pull your ink on to some sort of medium… not you desk. DOI! What. A. Dumbass.
One a side note, I started the second color this morning and it looking pretty sweet!
As always, Pre-orders are available through Supermarket.
Arcade Fire and writer/director Chris Milk teamed up with a huge collection of 2-D/3-D artists, filmmakers and coders to create The Wilderness Downtown. All coded in HTML5, this site is an incredibly rich and beautiful experience.
It’s recommended that, for the best experience, you use Chrome, but seeing as though Google was involved in the project, I can see why. However, I found that Firefox handled the experience a tad better.
Also, watch out Flash, this is proof that you’ve got some real competition.
My friend Katie sent these awesome coloring book hacks yesterday! Totally love the Spinosaurus (I’m also totally guessing) holding the PBR, I think I saw him hanging around off the Lorimer stop the other day!
