Senses working overtime #123

1 Feminism sells!

Fun, spunky, thoughtful article on advertising for women.

2 Graphic design

Fun, spunky and, erm, thoughtful part 2: A fabulous romp through 500 years of graphic design in print. I love that people like Rian and Allie write these kinds of articles and position them on the interweb for us all to enjoy.

3 Your compelling reason

This piece from George Couros features an amazing advert that may make you cry (something got into my eye while watching it).

4 Voyager 2

It left 40 years ago and it's travelled an eye watering 11 billion miles so far!




5 Tay Tay's not a happy bunny
New single, new Taylor Swift. Awesome!

Loving the font use. Anything that harks back to iconic material from Saul Bass like Vertigo gets my vote!

Senses working overtime #37

This is the second (or maybe third) week I've been in London to do the senses working overtime.

What an amazing city - yes there are problems, yes there are crowds, yes there is more rubbish on the streets, yes there are many smokers still but I can live with all that because there is an energy and a buzz and a sense of being that I don't get anywhere else.

But anyway - enough of me - what has assaulted my senses this week? Let's get to it...

1 2016 has rolled around
This is a pretty cool summary of 2015 (in four minutes!)

2 Emirates
omg OMG OMG OMG

The smirk says it all!

I took the tour last week. It was beyond awesome!!

3 Movies for 2016

Looking forward to a lot (A LOT) of these 2016 releases. 

4 Jazz noises

This little post from The Guardian is pretty cool - a run down of the best jazz noises from last year, including a great track from Polar Bear.

5 Hitchcock

These story boards from Hitchcock's films are works of art in themselves.

1 Margaret Drabble
Here's another reason why I love reading The Guardian.
