Chip Kidd is one of those brilliant guys that not too many people know about. To learn his name you have to open up one of the books hes designed and look on the credits page. But he also gets a lot of press because hes created some of the most eye catching and dynamic images to ever grace the cover of a book. Some...

I love his work too: Both The Learner and The Cheese Monkeys. That's life as a graphic designer (and somewhat a web designer/programmer)

I live, breathe, sleep. eat, think, design. design. design. every day of my life....It's who I am:
a graphic designer + web designer + web developer + etc [designer]

Chip Kidd is a master of his craft. Simplicity of design at its finest.

Peter Chung became very popular with the stoners back in 1991 when MTVs Liquid Television premiered the animated Aeon Flux shorts. Since then Chung created the half hour Aeon Flux show, directed the Matriculated segment of The Animatrix and The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury.

For the past year Chung has spent his time collecting and remastering all the animated Aeon Flux material into one...

Funny story, I bought my Aeon Flux t-shirt from him at the Comicon. He asked my opinion on who to play Aeon in a live action movie.




what did you say?




Sorry, just read your reply. The first person to pop into my head was a stripper I knew. So I just told him no one came to mind. He thought of Famke Jansen. This was right after her debut in Goldeneye.

For all of us wannabe sex addicts out there, here is Richard Ross head scratchingly hysterical book Patently Erotic. Now you can find out who designed the sound-playing condoms and the tear away bra. Its a great book and would make a perfect stocking stuffer for your perverted friend or someone you want to give a hint to.

Buy Patently Erotic

The television world was shocked back in 1995 when American Gothic premiered on CBS. This was a dark show set in a small South Carolina town called Trinity where murder, black magic and the devil were common occurrences. The town was basically controlled by an evil sheriff named Lucas Buck [played by Gary Cole]. The show was an even bigger surprise because it was created...

M.I.A. latest album is Arular is being propelled by the dancehall hit Galang. But beneath the surface of this danceable fun track there is a power and politicalness that M.I.A. has carried with her whole life.

Check out the official website for M.I.A.

M.I.A.: Oh my gosh, so much shit. Its the most amazing place in...

Annie has been shooting up the pop charts with a multitude of singles from the album Anniemal. This Norwegian natives pop sound started a groundswell of support from the internet that is now crossing over into major radio play. I got a chance to talk with Annie during a short visit to New York City.

With The Libertine, director Laurence Dunmore has faithfully committed to film one of the most colorful men in history, John Wilmot, the second Earl of Rochester [Johnny Depp]. The film follows the Earl's adventures in London, from his passionate romance with a young actress, Elizabeth Barry [Samantha Morton], to the writing of a scurrilous play which blisteringly and bawdily lampoons the very monarch who commissioned...

Ralph Steadman is certainly one of the last of his kind. One of the radical cartoonists and caricaturist of the 60s who co-created the idea of gonzo along with Hunter S. Thompson who he collaborated with on a number of projects including Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

In the past decade or so Steadman has been indulging his personal passions such as wine with...

I dont know a ton about strippers but if I was able to pick and choose them at will, Diablo Cody would definitely be the one for me. Cody is an intelligent, sexy and beautiful writer who went on a hilarious experiment a few years ago. A somewhat nice girl growing, Cody moved from Chicago to Minneapolis to be with a guy she met over...

Hugo Weaving had a difficult task when he reteamed with the Wachowski brothers and their director James McTeigue on their adaptation of the Alan Moore and David Lloyd graphic novel V for Vendetta. James Purefoy had already filmed some scenes as V then was let go, giving Weaving only a few days to prepare before coming to set to replace him. But Weaving relished the...

Yes, he moves and you see him flitting across the rooftops and things but he has a great stillness.

That's a very good way to put it. Good insight, Mr. Weaving.
As paranoid as I am that movie's going to be screwed up, little things like this give me hope.

I just hope to god that he plays Elrond again in the upcoming Hobbit movie. :] love

Ive been a lot of movie sets over the years, both big and very small. But nothing prepared me for visiting the on location shoot of V for Vendetta. A good chunk of the film shot in London, thankfully it was all done before the bombing. V for Vendetta is based on the graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd and is set against...

Can I yell "Lightning bolt, Lightning bolt!" as I throw a rolled up sock at you then? Please??? love

But seriously, I've yet to read or listen to (on NPR) a good review of this film. I'm not a follower of the graphic nover/comic/whatever. I've just heard it's not a terribly coherent film. I'll probably catch it when it hits HBO/Cinemax/Starz on Demand because it's got Ms. Portman with the cute buzzcut. oink

i have a serious girl crush on Natalie Portman.
