A Night of Contemporary Art at the DIA
Thursday, January 22nd, 2009
The Detroit Institute of Arts is curating a special selection of contemporary art for friends of Media Genesis and Boyle Burdett on January 22nd, and we got to create the promotional material for the event. The first image was sent out as an email, and the second is going to be printed as an 18 x 24 inch poster. We're really happy with how they turned out, it's especially fun to take a set of visual elements designed for one medium and remix them in another.
Bonus Factoid: Pentagram made the logos for both the DIA and DSO (Detroit Symphony Orchestra). And both are excellent.

MediaG Newsletter
Monday, January 19th, 2009
One of my favorite projects at work lately has been the redesign of our newsletter. Not only did we redesign the look, we completely revamped the content and restructured how each story is presented. We mostly cover topics related to website development, but if you use the internet(s) at all there's bound to be something of interest to you. We're working on our third "issue" right now and in my opinion they're just getting better and better -- but we can always use feedback. Click here to visit the newsletter site, leave some comments on individual stories, and sign up to get the monthly newsletter in your inbox.
Update: full page January newsletter can now be found here.
