    Photographer and Designer Erin Hanson has come up with some great illustrations, and even greater advice and thoughts, in this clever series called Need To Want Less. These are rules we should all strive to live by. Something tells me it would make the world a better place.

    I was perusing the aisles of my local supermarket when I happened across 8th Continent Soymilk. Their branding is amazing. Simple, whimsical illustrations with great type. Definitely caught me eye and made me want to buy. Then I happened on their website which, although it’s Flash-based, carries the fun of the branding over brilliantly. You can visit it here.

    Matthew Dear \” Little People\” from Black City

    Matthew Dear comes back with probably his best album, Black City. Check out the sample above. You will not regret it.

    Wow. Just, wow. Andy Kennedy has created a wonderful animation using natural and man-made objects, with clay as the main medium, in this stop motion animation created on glass. Brilliant!

    This is one fun video and a very catchy tune from Jaill, one of Sub Pop Records new bands. Should get your toe tapping this morning.

    I am beyond excited. So excited I literally almost fell out of my chair.

    Okay, first the back story. I am a HUGE Beat Generation fan. I live and breathe these guys and gals who wrote some of the best literature and poetry ever. Now, they have a film based around the creation and publication of Howl. Almost as good as the long rumored On The Road flick, this looks outstanding and with a superb cast to boot. Can’t wait for this one…
