Just saw a new GoGurt commercial which they use time lapse and wall painting. Reminded me of a video I saw a long while ago from the artist Blu. Blu is an ambiguous animation painter who uses public walls to present their work. They made this video “MUTO” in Buenos Aires and in Baden. Well worth a watch.

So in the search of discovering my personal feelings about crativity and what creativity means, I can across this video from a TED conference from 2006. Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity.

First Entry, The Purpose.
Just bought the domain: tomlovesdesign.com. Graphic design, by its nature, is very subjective. By definition, graphic design is the process of communicating visually using text and images to present ideas. I don’t plan on using this as a forum for me to express what I feel is “good.” Instead I want to use this as a place that can inspire creativity. If design is the pool in...
