Hypnotizing LED dynamics by Alex Beim:
“Lucia is a project I have had in my head for the last 2 years, and now is finally coming together.
I have always been fascinated with LED matrixes, by both the look of the matrix and by the light they emit. I find myself often staring at horrible signs with bad animations just because I like the device itself.
I think these devices are poorly used and I always wanted to get my hands on one of them to make the whole genre proud.”
This summer I have completed two smiliar projects with two very different clients.
The first one is a flyer/poster/website for a promotions company for their Halloween style event this year. The photography, graphic/web design is done by me:
The book How to Make Good Pictures by Kodak Eastman Comapny Inc. has inspired me yet again to post some of what the American folks in the 40s would have considered great photorgaphy. As a matter of fact, I draw lots of inspiration from 1940s photographs that are masterfully crafted. There is still nothing like looking at a hand developed black and white print from a medium format or a large format camera.
Recently there has been a craving for all things vintage in cameras. The other day I found a small booklet by Kodak Company titled How to Make Good Pictures. After reading this quick guide I fell in love with the typography and the content.
There are many guides like this one but few that have that kind of depth and are dated 1943. A modern photographer can easily take advantage of the lessons in this book. Its amazing to see and read how little has changed in the basic underlying structure of photography.
I will be posting some more photos from this book in the next little while.
Right now I am working on a Communication Design Degree from Emily Carr University in Vancouver. Currently I am in Rotterdam studying Graphic Design at Willem de Kooning Academy.
