Featured. 2009 Calendar. SHIFT Japan.

SHIFT is a web magazine from Japan that was founded in 1997 (That's like 100 Internet years ago). They do their thing really well... all aspects of global culture, design, art, fashion, everything. Every year they produce a calendar that is available online and all over the globe in special boutiques. I have always been a huge fan of Shift Magazine and all that they do, so it is an honor to be included in this 2009 Calendar. どうもありがとう (Thanks Shift!).

Interviewed. Tastemakers Society.

This past summer I had a chance to speak with Manny from The Tastemakers Society. We only had a few minutes, so we decided to do a "one-liner" interview. He threw out 20 words and I threw back 20 immediate responses. A fun format for an interview. TTS is an awesome web-magazine that covers all the bases of culture. Hook up a bookmark and stay tuned.

MWM x ZUNE Originals.

The laser-engraved ZUNE MP3 Player that I designed earlier this year is now available. You can customize your own with options of 5 colors, different sizes, and 3 lines of laser engraved writing on the back. I also designed various full-color versions of the symmetrical artwork that you can download from the site for your Zune screen and desktop wallpaper. Music is a crucial part of my creative process, so it is a huge honor for me to be involved in such a cool project. Thanks Microsoft! Click-Zoom.

Illustration. Entertainment Weekly.

Last week I had the pleasure of working with Entertainment Weekly Magazine on this full-page illustration for a feature article "Fall Music Preview 2008". The illo on the left was my first shot and the piece on the right is the one that will go in the magazine. I am fond of both so I figured I'd share the process. This issue hits the racks this Friday. Another really fun project that celebrates the union of typography and colorful abstract geometry. Click-Zoom.

Interviewed. XFUNS Magazine. Taiwan.

I am honored to be featured in this month's issue of XFUNS Magazine (from the makers of IdN Magazine in Taiwan). Top-notch. This beautifully designed publication showcases and interviews top global design studios, animation magicians, and illustrators. Click-Zoom. MWM/XFUNS Interview transcript at bottom.

Unplugged.

From the vault.

During the studio move last week I discovered a few copies of currently sold-out B/W Bangers Volume One & Two. I still have a few copies of Three & Four for sale in my Online Store. Some people feel the first two series were stronger, as they were very graphic with just black ink and no greyscale. I personally feel the evolution to watercolor is more interesting. I still haven't fully decided what B/W Bangers Five will be, but I am looking forward to working on the new series this winter. If anyone is interested in buying a 1234 Set, shoot me an email. Preview: MWM B:4 - B:3 - B:2 - B:1. Good times!
