I’ve been wanting to get my kids' names tattooed on me for a while. After having a bad experience with an artist, I decided to use 99designs.com for one of them and the results are incredible. Can’t wait to show it off, once it’s tattooed on me.

A short film on Mike Langley, sign painter, for Vassilaros & Sons Coffee Co. From The Portland Egotist:
The attention to detail and steadiness of sign painting work blows our mind. You get that sense here in a very small dose, but if you have a chance be sure to check out Sign Painters because it will give you a respect and a healthy dose of inspiration for this unique section of the typographic fields.

My soon-to-be neighbor Souris put together this rad coloring book called Outside the Lines: An Artists’ Coloring Book for Giant Imaginations. Looking forward to mine arriving soon. Pick a copy up for yourself or your kid!
Soon you will be hearing from Pandora how they need Congress to change the way royalties are calculated so that they can pay much much less to songwriters and performers. For you civilians webcasting rates are “compulsory” rates. They are set by the government (crazy, right?). Further since they are compulsory royalties, artists can not “opt out” of a service like Pandora even if they think Pandora doesn’t pay them enough. The majority of songwriters have their rates set by the government, too, in the form of the ASCAP and BMI rate courts–a single judge gets to decide the fate of songwriters (technically not a “compulsory” but may as well be). This is already a government mandated subsidy from songwriters and artists to Silicon Valley. Pandora wants to make it even worse.

Inspired by Peter Saville’s incredibly famous album art for Joy Division’s Unknown Pleasures record, last night I made this JavaScript powered, touch-reactive ”pulsar simulator.”
Click (or touch) and drag to create spikes in the graph to emulate the last gasps of a dying star. Or, just watch it as it creates a randomized, wobbling, moving homage to one of my favorite bands.
OMG. Love this.
