Mechanical Ballet by Fernand Leger (1924). Amazing to think all these edits are done by hand with the print and a splicer – no Premiere or After Effects here…

We’re very pleased to now have a few prints for sale at the excellent Counter-Objects.co.uk. The shop is from the same people behind the (equally excellent) book store Counter-Print.co.uk, which is well worth a visit if you’re after rare or vintage art and design books.

Folkways
March 5th, 2010





I received my copy of the rather tasty Folkways earlier this week. Beautifully designed by Spin (of course), published by Unit Editions, and a bargain at £7.50. Lovely. Highly recommended.
Len Lye
February 21st, 2010The beautiful work of Len Lye.
UPDATE: As you will see from the comments – Roger Horrocks has written what looks to be a great book on Len Lye (which also includes a DVD of some of the films). Available to buy in the UK from Amazon, and there are some further links for international orders in the comments.

Flashback
February 10th, 2010



We have a few spreads in Flashback, the new book from Vict:onary documenting the wealth of designers partaking in this new-fangled Retro design malarkey. Due to the amount of content in these books the results are often mixed, but overall, this one’s a nice addition to the book shelf and probably worth seeking out if you’re into this kind of stuff I think.
Sixpack – Lucifer Jacket – Available Now.
February 4th, 2010

Sixpack France have just released a very limited number of our Lucifer jackets into their webstore. Following on from our Lucifer T’shirt, the design is a homage to the satin jacket featured on the hero of Kenneth Anger’s 1972 film Lucifer Rising, and features a fully embroidered back panel! Nice cheerful jacket for Spring.
