Good luck America, don’t screw it up.

Chuck Westbrook (Do you think he’s American?) has a great idea for getting good blogs noticed by people who want to notice them. It’s kind of like one of those pyramid selling schemes Lynne Faulds-Wood told us all to be careful of in the 80s, but it’s for blogs and it doesn’t want you to end up bankrupt.

Basically, check out Chuck’s idea over at his blog, where everyone will loyally read a neglected blog for two weeks. After the two weeks are up, another blog gets the spotlight. Nice idea, now fingers crossed they’re not all rubbish…

Noticed by the ever on-the-ball Kyle Steed, image from Demotivators.

Friday was the launch of Bastardised, the book based culmination of Bunch Design’s Made in Bunch identity project. I sent in an idea a while back and heard recently that I might have made the cut so I went along to find out.

Well, it turns out I did, and I found my entry on page 136 which won me a free copy and a souvenir badge.

…just bloody stumps left.

Oh my God.

This is lovely, a quirky game concept being developed by Ian Dallas which sets you the task of finding your way around in a completely white environment. Don’t worry though, you have some black ink at your disposal to pick out doors and objects. Could be loads of fun or completely baffling, one or the other. Whichever though, it gives rise to something very graphically distinct. Graham Linehan thinks it’s the next Portal…

Looks wonderful, it’s being coded in XNA though, so I’m unlikely to ever actually play it. Shame, could have been great as a PlayStation download, an iPhone app or even for the Pandora…

These pictures have been shamefully hidden away for far too long, so even though it’s old news I thought I’d share. A few of us from work went over to the first Typographic Circle exhibition of the run earlier this month and there were some very lovely things there.

Please excuse the blurry pictures, it was a blurry kind of evening, that’s what happens when you give designers free beer…
