Got your attention? Who here loves typography?! Well I do that's for sure. It is very important to me, even though I can't do diddly in the graphic design or even photoshop department. So I have two typographical (is that a word? or is that about maps?) treats for you.
First?
(source)
Isn't this incredible!? Girlfriend made this using lyrics from 10 of her favorite Daft Punk songs. It took her over 100 hours. Now I love the Daft but she takes the cake! (hopefully not the cake I made last night, cos that's delicious!)
And the second? This is where the bad word comes in. This is NOT the clean version of the song and thusly NSFW.
(I've tried everything and I can't get the videos to come up. Typepad tried to make it simple to do but now it's just impossible. This is a problem. Maybe it's cos I have a Mac? Do they work for you? Please follow the links if the videos aren't up, even though I know that's a pain)
This song is fantastic. This song makes it okay that the lawyer that lives/works below me slams his doors late at night cos I have probably been playing this too loud to hear him anyway. It's a shame "California Girls" ever existed cos this should have been the song of the summer. Good work Cee Lo, you got kinda totally annoying with Gnarles Barkley but this is my jam. I see a musical redemption. ALSO, the point to this post, how about that type work and the colors!? Awesome.
And a surprise third bit-o-fun...Let's round it out with this great song by an awesome band with an incredible record.
The Morning Benders - "All Day Day Light"
Can you tell I just love videos where the words pop up all fun and sans serif!? Also, their current album, Big Echo, is one of the best so far of 2010. So there ya have it.
What type/font related things are geeking you out right now?
