Retail Ideas for Melbourne
A while back I put together some Ideas for London (will repost as soon as I can find where I saved it). Now it’s Melbourne’s turn. The city that often boasts of it’s ‘most liveable city’ status, is currently attracting over 1000 new residents a month and sits in the Monocle Top 10 Most Liveable [...]
What’s Up #60: Rebecca Wolkenstein
Rebecca Wolkenstein is a person [rebeccawolkenstein.com]. She is also using her good name to single handily champion the work of Australian designers and photographers locally and around the world. Creatives currently under her wing include Beci Orpin (see What’s Up #59), Jonathan Zawada [zawada.com.au] (editor of Petit Mal zine [petit-mal.com] amongst other things) and Jason [...]
What’s Up #59: Beci Orpin
Beci Orpin [beciorpin.com] is another one of those hard working Antipodean Graphic Designers / Image Makers whose work rarely reaches the eyes and ears of those outside of the confines of Australian’s golden shores.

It also has a lot to do with the involvement of their new art director Na Kim [ynkim.com] who [...]

The Confab Audio Files #1
The Confab Audio Files were a brief series of ‘podcasted’ discussions presented by Aaron Moodie [peoplecollective.com.au] and Michael Bojkowski [okinterrupt.net] in June and July 2009. File 01 in this breif series looks at free pitching and crowdsourcing, whether or not graphic design is art? (ie It’s not!), digital rights management and the biggest library in [...]
What’s Up #57: Colophon
Colophon [colophon.info] have just produced a publication on the life and times of unstoppable New Zealand based typographer Joseph Churchward. Not only does it include many lush examples of Churchward’s typographic work, both published and unpublished. But you also get a discussion on the ‘unsolicited’ work Churchward used to produce that he affectionately referred to [...]
