These are silk screened, limited edition posters, black and gold inks on thick black stock. Quality stuff, if I may so boast. I’ll have the band sign the ones I didn’t hand off to the poster show and then put them up for sale soon! I’ll bring that up again when it happens. I’d imagine many of the other artists will be selling theirs too so look out for those.

The actual poster show will be held this Saturday, the 19th at 112 Printworks in Seattle. If you’re around, do come. Meet some amazing designers and plenty of other cool people. Here’s the FB event page. Hope to see you there, make yourself known!

Also, if you didn’t catch me say it, I will be performing Think/Feel with Beat Connection at the festival on Sunday, May 27th. Come see us in the Banana Shack just before Tycho, Star Slinger, Apparat, and James Murphy!

Why a backpack and not a shirt, you say? Because that’s the competition going on right now. Much easier to win a limited time contest than to enter a shirt design into the endless, swirling abyss where it could take months to get something printed.

Thanks, lovelies.

I was having too much of a droolfest to just haphazardly post this on twitter. Found this deliciousness via FPO. Here is what she says about these pieces:

This is project is self promotional. I wanted to send out something that truly was about my myself and how I design. I didn’t want to send out something that was my C.V. designed in a clever way. I wanted to grab someone’s attention that had a sense of humor. People take design too seriously, especially when searching for jobs. I basically wanted to say “Hey, I know that your busy and have a team full of great people, but I can get the job done too”.

1 I think this is just brilliant. I see the hand scrawled numbers on each record and can only imagine the headache involved in ordering and organizing those. Well worth the effort. Get the full track on iTunes.

2 Fascinating. I love that someone took something vintage and archaic and brought it into a new dimension, a future reality. See more and read about it on the-product.org.

3 This is a business card. Over achievement to the max but that’s what makes you stand out. I am picturing all of the faces that will nerd out and ogle over this. Design by Katharina Hölzl.

And here I end with the view from where I sit. Rainy Seattle.

In mid April, the twin and I popped over to NY to attend SVA’s accepted student’s day, reacquaint ourselves with the beautiful melee, and meet up with some friendly talent. We stayed at a sweet little place in Manhattan near Madison Square Park. The noise kept me up and I found myself in a number of cold sweats due to the heat and humidity more than a few times but awoke slowly the first morning by a more pleasant sort of bustle. Below our window, a flea market had appeared from the wasteland that was a parking lot. We adventured through Chelsea and Midtown, took the subway and traversed Central Park. We sought good food and fell in love with the city just a little bit more. When we met Taylor and Tom with Grant, we saw Brooklyn and took a little boat back over to Williamsburg. On the water we could see the statue in the distance, it was a lovely little jaunt! I struck out on my own just once and loved the experience. New York is only daunting on the surface but with enough time and a spirit for adventure, it really is quite friendly and exciting.

2 Stacey Rozich Interview by BossnotBoss

3 Rad by Rad Hourani, Fall/Winter 2012/2013 | New York by Le 21eme Arrondissement

1 It’s an amazing piece for all it’s ridiculous quirk and charm. Well shot, well acted, well done. teamdaddy.com

2 Interview with a good friend, by good friends! Lovely insight into Stacey’s amazing work. Read more here | bossnotboss.com

3 Really quite love this and there’s not much else I can say. Either you do, or you don’t but I admire the strong uniformity, the contrasting leather, straps, and buckles. Imagine these placed within the context of a post-apocalyptic dark, barren, beautiful, starry landscape. Shot by | Adam Sinding
