You can't miss: SmArtHistory

Ever regret not going to art school? Here's a great little resource that might fill that void. SmartHistory is being developed as an alternative to a art history book. Not just that, it also has a great design and user interface. You can quickly see a sample of images from a certain time period. Below is an excerpt from the Industrial Revolution period. You can also search by artist and medium.

So take a look if you want to beef up your art knowledge: SmArtHistory

This week in Veer: Best type video ever

Guys, I really found a jewel this week. Veer put out the ABC's of typography in this awesome video.
It's similar to bembozoo, if you've seen that. But way cooler. You'll just have to see for yourself.

F is for Fail

Response: Meredith visitors and advice

Like everyone else has already posted, I can't believe it's actually over. (The Meredith project, that is.) Probably the single biggest project of my college career, so far anyway.

It had its ups and downs, but as I look back and reflect on it, overall it was a success. It's always great to hear professional critique; everyone from Meredith was so gracious and constructive with their feedback for everyone. There was a good diversity of staff represented: visual, editor, web, etc..

I had to miss one of the presentations, but the ones I saw were wonderful! Each group had creative ways to present themselves. (and lots had treats! always a good idea.)

Hope everyone got a chance to relax a bit and enjoy it!
