In the picture you can see how the Ecofont is created by omitting parts of the letter. At the shown size, this obviously is not very nice, but at a regular font size it is actually very usable.
Use Ecofont the next time you’ll be printing a white paper (that your not going to read anyway).

AntiVJ is a visual label initiated by European-based artists whose work is focused on the use of projected light and its influence on our perception.
Also check out Exyzt’s installation for Etienne De Crezy – most advanced visuals that I’ve seen in a long time.
It is all live action and works by using the shutter speed of the camera rather than the rather irritating stroboscope methods other 3D Zoetropes use.
Very cool and to a large extent useless…
As you can see above light graffiti is much more than this! Vicky Dasilva does fine art photography, and does it pretty good! Check out the “8ft fluorescent moved on metal track” at http://www.vickidasilva.com/

From an e-mail to the Microsoft employees:
The first phase of this campaign is designed to engage consumers and spark a new conversation about Windows – a conversation that will evolve as the campaign progresses, but will always be marked by humor and humanity. The first in this series of television ads airs initially in the U.S., and it aims to re-ignite consumer excitement about the broader value of Windows.
So this is the result (at least the first ad) made by Crispin Porter + Bogusky. It’s less Microsoft than I had expected and definitely shows a new direction. I’m exited to see what this will do for them in the long run.
Levi van Veluw´s photo series are self-portraits, drawn and photographed by himself: a one-man-process. His works constitute elemental transfers; modifying the face as object; combining it with other stylistic elements to create a third visual object of great visual impact. The work you see therefore is not a portrait, but an information-rich image of colour, form, texture, and content. The image contains the history of a short creative process, with the artist shifting between the entities of subject and object.
Very cool! Check out www.levivanveluw.com and his behance.com portfolio for more stuff.
Radiohead – “House of Cards”. Light captures the 3D shape at close proximity while lasers is used to capture the environment. Pretty cool. Read more about it here and create your own visualizations.

I know this is an ape, but I like the word monkey better – it’s just more fun. Well, we talk too much about monkeys at the office, so this is one fits very well. BTW. Macaco Louco in Portuguese means Crazy Monkey!
This post showcases over 70 examples of sexy, bold and experimental typography. Some examples are typographic posters, some are typographic illustrations and some are just sketches with type. In any case, you will hopefully find some inspiration for your future works.

Twistory takes all the crap tons of data that the Twitter users submit and visualize it in a very simple way. Pretty cool.
