Happy NEW Year!

A Conceptual Form

This is MATHEMATICAL FORM 0001 by Hiroshi Sugimoto, from the series Conceptual Forms. Makes my brain stop.

The Good Lifo

Lifo is the newest and best free press in Athens. Like most cities Athens is full of these free magazines, though most of them are not really free. The most popular one sells advertising space inside personal ads, resulting in ads like "I saw you wearing a v*daf*ne t-shirt, you looked hot etc". Lifo is mostly good, apart from some weird lifestyle elements that make me think we are still living in the 1990's (some even in the 80's) so I recently I made a harsh comment about it in another blog, and then I felt guilty: Lifo comes from Stathis Tsagarousianos, the man responsible for the best ever greek magazine, the legendary 01. By the way when are we gonna get the 01 compendum?

Hotel Blue Wave featured in the fantastic "DVD companion" book "Everything will be ok" by Thisisnotamagazine. The DVD features a re-edited segment of the Hotel video with new music by Radioganesh Peep1. Check it out, also for Angelo Plessas' amazing double page.

Back from Milano

Too tired to say anything clever about Milan, or about elegance, design, history or humor. This is no tacky town, for sure.

Off to Milan

AndrewBurgess.com

Just found this Cat Town on AndrewBurgess.com. Andrew worked with me on several projects such as Mirrorsite, InvisibleHome and a pre-proposal of Forever Laser. Now he's based in Iceland, doing some pretty cool stuff. I love this Cat Town and also the Hand Tower. His site is super minimal and all the content is presented in a continous fascinating loop.

Time for Quicktime

Finally I've uploaded the animations for projects that could not possibly be explained without motion: Hotel Blue Wave, Mirrorsite, P130 and Animated. More is coming soon. Hope the bandwidth doesnt' kill me, but then again it would be nice if it did.

A drawing for Alkis

Just did these drawings for my friend Alkis who passed away recently. The images will be used on the flyer for a party at Factory club on christmas eve. You can download the high res image from here. Print it big. Put some music on. Dance around and think of Alkis.
