Batman forever

No, not the rubbish film, the video which shows the Batman logo changing over all its various incarnations.

This isn’t just a geeky indulgence, it seriously shows how much variation can still be found in something simple and essentially already ‘designed’, as well as the impact small changes can have on the character of a recognisable symbol:

Logopolis

There’s a new Doctor Who logo. Some people don’t like it. I do.

It’s a hell of a lot better than the awful eye of Sauron London taxi logo we’ve had since the show came back…

Doctor Who intro logo

In fact it’s closest really to the very first logo, from the William Hartnell era, let’s hope the Radiophonic Workshop theme tune comes back too…

Doctor Who logos through the years

…and if it’s possible look past the Photoshop lens flare and the MASSIVE letter W, it has a quite old fashioned quirky silhouette. I’m not convinced by the need for a TARDIS symbol, but hey. It looks like there’ll be a whole new dark and vintage feel to the new show’s identity in 2010.

Amazing, love the attention to detail and humour packed into each and every one. There’s even a Cube Dudes Flickr group now where everyone who has managed to find their old Lego sets in the loft are having a go. Found over at io9




Blood Sugar

Sorry, I had to post this, it’s Friday. Cassetteboy is a bloody genius. If you’ve seen it before, watch it again, then check out the others on his site.

Even Jeremy is terrified.




Formula One 2009



The new Formula one season kicks off on the 28th March, and this year there are a lot of changes. This pretty slick video outlines the main ones, courtesy of Sebastien Vettel, Red Bull and a hefty helping of lovely CGI graphics.

Impressive, but of course, every UK F1 fan is waiting for the return of the Fleetwood Mac theme tune now it’s back on the BBC…

Sorry Jamiroquai, but it’s still the best.
