Pussy Power!
May 9th, 2007
Check out May’s issue of i-D magazine, it features one of my favourite artists Cat Power. Her last album was called The Greatest and I’m not going to disagree with her, its an absolutely amazing album.
Cat Power (real name Chan Marshall) is still a relatively unknown artist, but those that have heard her beautiful, soulful voice would struggle to think of a better female singer than her at the moment.
The Bible… The Barnbrook Bible

Hurrah! finally a comprehensive book by the great contemporary designer, Jonathan Barnbrook, is due later this year and is simply called ‘Barnbrook Bible’.
Barnbrook is responsible for some of the most creative typefaces of the last decade such as Delux, Moron & Bastard available from his type foundry Virus.
Not only that, he’s also repsonsible for some great political design works, particularly against the Iraq War and also notable work for Adbusters, fighting against the corporations stranglehold over everyone of us.
Due out in September 2007, you can pre-order it from Amazon.co.uk here.

Here is the latest typeface released by Alejandro Paul and available to purchase from Veer.
Candy Script is the latest in a along line of wonderful typefaces created in the last few years. This sits comfortably alongside his other recent masterpieces Affair, Ministry Script & Buffet Script.
The following is taken from the press release:
Inspired by Argentina and its culture, Alejandro Paul’s Candy Script captures the country’s spirit. It comes from the tradition of window sign painting, but its thick hand-brushed characters have a personality all their own.

A very funny take on the typical viagra spam e-mails we all get in our e-mail boxes. This stuff will take someones eye out if your not careful!!!
Created by the clever chaps at Airside… if only all spam e-mails were as humerous as this they wouldn’t be such an irritation to us all!
