“Compressed sensing is a mathematical tool that creates hi-res data sets from lo-res samples. It can be used to resurrect old musical recordings, find enemy radio signals, and generate MRIs much more quickly. Here’s how it would work with a photograph.”

It seems that everything we’re working on right now is top secret and can’t be posted anywhere due to NDA’s. Meanwhile here’s a design and illustration for San Diego band Mind World Steppers.

New Work July 10, 2009

admin — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 00:40:09 +0000

Here’s some new stuff I’ve been working on, some is still in progress some is finished:

This is the artwork for a brochure just completed for The Infusion Project. They are doing a bunch of Comic- Con afterparties, so we had to do a whole brochure just to cram in all of the info. I did an illustration for it since I don’t really have any presence at the Con this year, so at least some work of mine will be on 30,000 brochures all over the city next week.

A new design for the underground Refuge project and refuge Recordings–coming soon.

I did the flyer, tickets and created a quick website for the Magical Sunshine Festival. I’ll be djing there as well. This is a big San Diego event that is showcasing a lot of SD djs. Very cool.

Another vector drawing for a series of t-shirts that may or may not happen. I just do the work, can’t make these people actually do something with it.

Estimating how much a project will cost and how long it will take is extremely important for your business. You can always just throw out any old price to a prospective client but if you’re not careful you could actually lose money completing the work. This article on Smashing Magazine is very thorough and will help anyone develop a better strategy and understanding of how to come up with effective estimates.

Interactive PDFs are taking a step forward with the ability to embed .SWF files into InDesign. Automatication offers the plug-in for free; of course you can–and should–donate money to the project. I read about it on InDesign Secretsand you can too. Good stuff.

Future Websites and the Experience

admin — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 00:17:36 +0000

There are a ton of futurist articles out there. This is a quick read that gives you a good idea of how to think about the web and how we relate to it now. Who knows how it will evolve but I like this article because it gets you to think about it, in the context of right now.

Here’s a link to a great article about why your portfolio may not be even looked at–no matter how good it is. Creative people often forget that networking is so important, which means you’ve got to get out and meet people…
