seaside-born: “Victory Falls dropped their EP, with my designed logo on it! Cue my 90’s grunge rock inspired sounds for the day.”

Awesome work, great simple composition (love the top bleed: unexpected), clear communication, nice iconic logo with a distinct urban message. Can you post a song?

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated! I would be delighted to share a song from them in an upcoming post.

“Digging into the research, the use of ‘scarlet’refers to scarlet dyed wool, as it is double dyed to get the intense color. It seems to be a poetic way of saying her household is clothed doubly, layered against the cold. Regardless, the imagery of a family walking through snow in bright scarlet cloth became firmly lodged in my head. So, Scarlet is a name that is both visually striking and nods to a beautiful book in the Bible, Proverbs 31.”

Went to Molly Malone’s for a friend’s going-away party last night and tried this for the first time. Go go gluten-free hard ciders! I think Woodchuck has a strong competitor now…

It also happens to satiate my little flame of The Hunger Games fan-ishness. :)

“Oh Little Town of Dog-leham

And still the puppies lie

They lay in deep, and restful sleep

A bone floats in the sky”

THE CHROMATIC TYPEWRITER

What a lovely new use for an old gadget. Washington-based painter Tyree Callahan has modified a traditional typewriter and turned it into a painting machine, or “Chromatic Typewriter”. Callahan submitted the beautiful typewriter as part of the 2012 West Prize competition, an annual art prize that’s determined by popular vote. The keys on the vintage 1937 Underwood Standard typewriter have each been replaced with a different pad of color to give some rather interesting results!

Hey check out this awesome book made by a few friends of mine on Zelda and Theology. It’s edited by Jonny Walls (husband to the wonderful Emily who wrote that rad Unemployment bit) and the awesome cover art designed by Jake & Jamie of A Pair of Pears!

“The level of interactive adventure, exploration, immersion and storytelling The Legend of Zelda brought to television screens across the world was unheard of and it planted an integral seed in the garden that one day would grow into the diverse gaming landscape we know today. Far from stopping there, The Legend of Zelda series has continued to release top-shelf games adored by critics and fans alike. Zelda, like all of our greatest fairy tales, legends and myths, presents that elusive and exclusive kind of enlightenment that only the fantastic can provide. In this collection, various contributors explore the connections between this cultural zeitgeist and theology.”

After seeing (or is it hearing?) Andrew Bird’s stellar performance in the Muppet movie last night, it’s apt that his new album and tour would be announced today! Andrew Bird’s new album “Break It Yourself” comes out March 6th.
