Robert Abel & Associates

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

The amazing work of Robert Abel & Associates from the late 70s/early 80s. Perhaps best known for creating special effects on Tron, The Andromeda Strain and The Black Hole, they also produced an impressive catalogue of TV ads and idents.

More after the link below – but I could’ve easily put 20 or more clips of their work here!

+1 Magazine

Friday, July 17th, 2009

We’ve designed the cover for the forthcoming issue of our favourite free mag +1 Magazine. Should be in shops around the end of July, and will also include a feature on the relentless battle of La Boca vs DC Recordings (with some awful images of us I suspect!).

François Truffaut – Fahrenheit 451 (1966)

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

Nice new advert for the Nokia N97 by Wieden+Kennedy, featuring the Kelpe track “Quick Broken Harp”. Check the brief glimpse of our Kelpe sleeve at the beginning!

Alan Fletcher – Clam Ashtray

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

I recently picked up one of these ashtrays designed by Alan Fletcher for Mebel in Italy in around 1970 (I think). I don’t smoke, so I’m not exactly sure what I’m gonna do with it yet, but it’s a very beautiful object so maybe that’s reason enough to have one.
