Visual Complexity

For a long time I’ve been interested in visual presentations of information as it provides a true combination of form and function. Not only are all of these designs beautiful, but they provide interesting and unique perspectives for understanding various types of information. Anyway, with the type of work I’ve been doing lately my interest in this type of design is becoming reignited. I’ve started to gather a nice selection of examples (new and old) I thought would be cool to share and also wanted to see if I’m missing anything… let me know!
If Fonts Were People

The fact that Arial is a redneck was enough to sell this for me. Awesome. Wow, I’m a nerd.

My friend Matt sent me this yesterday. It might be old news, but I’ve never seent it. Pretty unbelievable though. This must have come out right before the name became unbelievably taboo.

I’m on vacation right now so the following isn’t exactly relevant for me at the moment, but I thought I’d direct all those sitting in an office to the Work Friendly Browser. It basically skins any site you’d like to browse (like mine) into a Microsoft Word like view. When you check it out make sure to press the boss key. The result is priceless.
This idea reminds me of the “work safe mode” from listentoamovie.com. Anyone remember that site?

Yes it does.
Do You Love Me Or My Hair?

The new campaign, for Milk of all people, is strange and awesome. The concept is based around a band/dude named White Gold. They have interactive music videos (not unlike the Arcade Fire videos I talked about before) for songs like Do You Love Me Or My Hair, biography snippets, games, taming of a white tiger, etc. The budget was obviously huge and probably incredibly tedious to produce, but oh man it looks like it was fun to work on. What I’d most like to know though, is how did Goodby get Milk to buy in to such an insane project?
