Rock Chick

bird_and_guitarIt seems to have been a while since I last posted an entry…I got man-flu, then had to move house – that’s my excuse anyway. I have been busy though. Cog is thriving as always and I have been working on a new identity for a client for the last couple of months – all will be revealed soon.

In a little bit of time I conjured up, I visited the Céleste Boursier-Mougenot installation at the Barbican. A really interesting piece exploring the relationships between movement and sound. I did manage to get a quick photo before being told off (I wasn’t the only one taking photos!), which is the one shown above. Go and see it if you can.

Arts Catalyst

by John on January 4, 2010

arts_catalyst_websiteSo, another little project I have been working on at Cog went live over the festive break. This time in the form of a website for The Arts Catalyst, who commission contemporary art that experimentally and critically engages with science. I must add that I merely designed the site and the very technically knowledgeable web team at Cog built the beast.

It was important that the design was a good representation of what they do, mixing art and science, so what better excuse than to build a site based around the rule of thirds – unfortunately, those pesky pixels wouldn’t allow me to be as accurate as the golden section. The end result is clean and contemporary.

Merry Xmas from Tanya Bennett

by John on December 16, 2009

WestyI got sent this today from a good friend of mine, who now lives in Hong Kong, with a nice little Xmas message – thanks Westy! It’s too good not to share. She’s got a blog too (as all us hip young kids have got), which you can visit here…but don’t forget to come back.

Tanya, if you read this I am trying to free some time before Xmas to return the favour.
