Structured Procrastination
May 15th, 2009
Many procrastinators do not realize that they are perfectionists, for the simple reason that they have never done anything perfectly, or even nearly so. They have never been told that something they did was perfect. They have never themselves felt that anything they did was perfect.

Design Process
May 8th, 2009
A joke from photoshopdisasters.blogspot.com:
- Receive requirement
- Sketch out rough
- Get approval
- Create artwork
- Review
- Create finished artwork
- Preflight and proof
- Notice reflection is upside-down*
*optional
See the image here.
I thought it’d be good to remember the process and leave a note on purplemass (forget the last item!).

Did the Nazis & Soviets have the same graphic designer?
April 27th, 2009
The similarities are uncanny then again it was the 1930s & 40s and maybe there weren’t that many graphics artists around!
Read this article titled “Nazis and Soviets Acted as One” by Henry Makow Ph.D. from henrymakow.com.
The images are from the above article & web site.

Heptagrama: the web, but verified
February 17th, 2009
Heptagrama is a serious effort to summarize the Internet and make the world a better place.
Seems to have been written by two guys one guy about the web/the world and anything in between. I really enjoyed the Mind Body section about men and women.

New Design for purplemass.com
January 16th, 2009
The other night I spent a bit of time changing the Simpla theme (which is superb in its own right) to something a little more colourful and well purplemass like!
I’m not 100% sure about it. Would appreciate your comments.
Think I’ll spend some time this weekend getting the colours of text & headers right.
