TARA DONOVANArt
Great installations and sculptures by New York artist Tara Donovan. www.acegallery.net/artistmenu.php…(Via DM Stith) _Posted by Jez / Jan 08, 2009

ART OF MUSICIt's Not Us
Guest Poster — Ill Studio Curated by ill-studio, Art Of Music reflects upon the profound influence that music has on art and simultaneously art has on music and recognizes their common creative approach. The leading idea of the show emphasizes the fact that artists tastes in music are always strongly related to their work. Twenty one international artists, graphic designers and illustrators have been asked to design the poster for the concert of their dream, including the line-up of choice and in any venue imaginable whether existing or not. After Los Angeles and Stockholm the posters are now exhibited at Colette in Paris. www.ill-studio.com/aomstockholmwww.colette.fr_Posted by Not Us / Jan 08, 2009
FELIX LOBELIUSGraphic Design
For a design school I’d never heard of until last autumn, The Billy Blue College of Design in Sydney, Australia is producing some pretty accomplished designers. Felix Lobelius is next up following Malin Holmstrom and Magdalena Czarnecki featured at the end of last year. Pictured is Perspective magazine that ‘sheds light on famous, infamous and unknown personalities in different ways’. www.felixlobelius.com_Posted by Will / Jan 08, 2009
A THING FOR MEMusic, Film
The always-brilliant Metronomy have released their video for new single ‘Thing For Me’. They never seem to disappoint and real life karaoke dot thingy is no different and sits nicely in what’s becoming a very enviable back catalogue of videos, all of which you can view on their myspace. www.youtube.com_Posted by Alex / Jan 08, 2009
LUIGI BORMIOLIGraphic Design
Great article over on the much favored Thinking for a Living™ blog regarding the recent launch of the new Luigi Bormioli site. Designed and developed by BBDK in conjunction with User Experience Strategist Ian Coyle of Superheroes, ‘…the story of this site’s development is a perfect example of how, with careful management, everyone can get their wants and needs satisfied when you’re doing the right thing.’ View Articlewww.luigibormioli.comwww.bbdk.com_Posted by Will / Jan 08, 2009

ANDERSEN M STUDIOFilm
Great TV promo from London based Andersen M Studio for the ‘Ian McKellen & Shakespeare’ season on More4. www.andersenm.com_Posted by Will / Jan 07, 2009
RACHEL GRIFFINGraphic Design, Product Design
Some fantastic work from genuinely multi-disciplinary designer Rachel Griffin. I’m a big fan of the site too, letting you keep open the projects that you enjoyed to come back to – a bloggers delight. Pictured are some glasses made entirely from tape from her ‘Wear and Repair’ series. The idea being that if you break them, you can repair them with the same material that they’re made in, so rather than hindering their design they actually add to it. www.rachelgriffin.net_Posted by Alex / Jan 07, 2009

ITALIAN RADICAL ARCHITECTUREIt's Not Us
Guest Poster — Ill Studio We are long time admirers of the 60’s italian radical architecture and anti-design movement for the visual aspect of it but also for the utopian way of thinking it represented. These guys broke the rules and principles of traditional architecture and design and there should be a movement like this for everything. Also see www.clipstampfold.com_Posted by Not Us / Jan 07, 2009
MARCROYIllustration, Photography
Marcroy has just over a week left in New York, working alongside Urban Inks at the Post Expose print studio, but still found time to update his site with some sweet new screenprints. Pictured is a collaboration with photographer Andreas Konrath. www.marcroy.co.uk_Posted by Jez / Jan 06, 2009
APFELGraphic Design

JOAO PAULO CARVALHOPhotography
Sticking with my promise of optimistic images to welcome in the new year, here is the exceptional work of young Portuguese photographer Joao Paulo. Be sure not to close his window until you’ve had a gander at his ‘silence’ series. www.joaopaulocarvalho.com_Posted by Alex / Jan 06, 2009

ILL STUDIOIt's Not Us
The ill-studio is a French group of collaborators devoted to fine arts. Our goal is to bring ten individuals together, working in various artistic areas such as graphic design, photography, typography, illustration, video, motion design, etc. This picture has been taken for the last issue of the french magazine called Magazine that we have been guest curating. Magazine is a magazine about magazines. For each issue, they ask different art directors, graphic designers or photographers to come up with a concept to introduce the magazine they are reviewing. This is what we did. www.ill-studio.com_Posted by Not Us / Jan 05, 2009
FOR THE LOVE OF WISPAAdvertising, Film
London based studio Fallon have worked their magic on Cadbury’s Chocolate bar Wispa, all done for the love of Wispa and paid for with Wispa bars (including director/agency). Watch the making of the advert here. www.vimeo.com/2587832www.fallon.co.uk_Posted by Will / Jan 05, 2009
NOUS VOUSIllustration, Graphic Design

VILLAGE GREENGraphic Design
Great update from London based studio, Village Green. Pictured are two of their infamous posters for London Club, Fabric. They don’t always work but when they do they’re well worth picking up. www.villagegreenstudio.comVia Form Fifty Five_Posted by Will / Jan 05, 2009
NOTHING BUT GREEN LIGHTSMusic
Happy New Year! What better way to celebrate than a week’s worth of optimistic posts to get you in the mood for ’09? To kick off is the video for Tom Vek’s 2005’s track ‘Nothing But Green Lights’ directed by Adam Bartley. An interestingly stark take on an uplifting track. www.dailymotion.comwww.tomvek.tv_Posted by Alex / Jan 05, 2009
HAPPY NEW YEARIt's Nice That
Five days late but never mind, back to work and back to it. This was being played in a local supermarket over the weekend and it seems an appropriate place to start 2009. Blame the bankers, blame the government, blame the media, blame whoever you want but don’t forget we’ve been here before, just ask Mick. So here’s our opener for the year, Simply Reds first single from (way) back in ’85, Money’s Too Tight To Mention. If it’s anything to go by it does get better towards the second half but never the less remains a bit dodgy. So Happy New Year to everyone, hope you have a great 2009! www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqbrNwF8LJg_Posted by Will / Jan 05, 2009
MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM IT'S NICE THATIt's Nice That
So it’s the last post today in the UK and we’re doing the same. From all of us here have a very Merry Christmas and we’ll see you some time in the new year. Pictured is this year’s Carnaby St, don’t know who’s responsible but nice all the same. Answers on a postcard and I’ll get a link up. — I’m reliably informed they are designed by Paul Dart, who has created the Carnaby Christmas Decorations. ‘The inspiration for this year’s decorations came from the childhood fantasy of a white Christmas and the delight in creating snowmen from the first fall of snow. ‘ Thanks Roberta!_Posted by Will / Dec 19, 2008 
MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM AKQAIt's Not Us, Film
Guest Poster — James Houston Nothing says “Merry Christmas” like a wall full of microwaves. I thought I’d end the week’s postings on a festive note, and this video is obviously right up my street. They could have thrown a printer or scanner into the mix to beef it up a bit, but lets not get picky on this season of good will. Thanks to Will from itsnicethat for giving me a platform for me to show some interesting videos. I’ve really enjoyed writing for the blog over the last week, and I hope that you’ve all enjoyed my pickings. Happy holidays everybody. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgBUqJzgvBo_Posted by Not Us / Dec 19, 2008
MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM MR BINGOIllustration
Something from Bingo. www.mr-bingo.org.uk_Posted by Will / Dec 19, 2008

JIM LE FEVREIt's Not Us, Film
Guest Poster — James Houston Nexus Productions’ Jim Le Fevre was one of the excellent people that welcomed me to London with open arms. We were both speakers at Interesting2008, and had have been mutually backslapping each other ever since. Jim discovered that he can recreate a Zoetrope using the shutter speed on a camera as the strobe effect to separate the frames, and a Technics turntable as the rotating base. Simply beautiful and beautifully simple. For the Interesting2008 talkFor a close-up of the device, set to Elliot Smith_Posted by Not Us / Dec 18, 2008

DIALTONES: A TELESYMPHONYIt's Not Us, Music
Guest Poster — James Houston Having your mobile phone go off during a concert would usually be embarrassing, but at Dialtones it’s a necessity.I really wish I could have been in the audience for this one – Dialtones was a concert where musicians onstage would create music by mass-dialling the audience’s mobile phones. The phones had been pre-registered and contained custom ringtones which had been specially created for the show.This has been a huge influence for my own work, and already feels dated thanks to the rapid growth of the mobile phone industry; I’m glad that the performance captured this moment in time, as I don’t think that .mp3 ringtone samples would have the same charm as these old-school polyphonic counterparts.A true masterpiece – seeing the overlooked potential in an everyday object, and harnessing that potential as a means of expression. See the performanceFind out more about how it was put togetherTelesymphony website_Posted by Not Us / Dec 17, 2008
