Where the Wild Things Are

Greatest kids book ever...and scared the bejesus out of me when I was a nipper. When I heard a film was being made of Sendak's classic I was worried. But with Spike Jonze directing - IMO Gondry or Jeunet would have been better - it should at least pack a visual punch to match the book.

The saving grace could well be Dave Eggars writing the script - if you haven't read "A Heartbreaking...

Mr Clement rocking it again

Posted by Geoff June 25, 2007

Love this guy's work. He's also super nice and deserves to make it big for having the energy to handmake his own toys. Check out the interview with him in Clutter Issue 6 to see what I mean.

Taken from his blog - new Lapin prototype, "Pet Lapin". Due out this year.

Friday moan (where's the sunshine gone?)

Posted by Geoff June 22, 2007

Wasn't sure I was going to post this as this blog should be hitting the happy vibe (god knows we need it with the biblical weather in the UK...it's June FFS!!!). But recently there's been a few occassions where stuff is happening that I think will ultimately cause this 'scene' to implode.

Tim Biskup and cell phone provider Helio teamed up with a raffle that gave people free GID...

Mystery James Jarvis print!

Posted by Geoff June 20, 2007

I love Jarvis' work. I love fonts/typefaces. So to hear that they were combining for the Design Museum's 50 year celebration of Helvetica got me more excited that is perhaps natural ; )

The show celebrating the typeface is combining the talents of 50 designers/illustrators/artists will be coming to London late summer and then touring the UK.

Oh look...i'm blogging about Horvath again. I swear it's not an obsession, honest!   So Horvath's blog has been alluding to a new toy - UMA and now all has been revealed.

Shark update

Posted by Geoff June 15, 2007

I'm even more excited by these now...awesome sculpt and the addition of the severed leg adds a lil something to the mix of the standard and black colourways.

And thankfully the one I really love (far right) is the most widely available. Woo!
Expect the Black (Keith Poon - 150) and Mitsubishi Zero (Huck Gee with the rising sun headband also 150) to drop at SDCC. Lucky Yanks.......
