Maintain your seats in
the upright position and prepare for takeoff.
One of my favorite phrases. I collect phrases. They dive into my head
and swim around, waiting for the second they are shocked by charged neurons
and are dispensed through my own mouth. I feel that same way about many
things. It's like being a filter for the world around you: being able
to take put together a string of thought, make it into an idea and then
having a way of executing those ideas into functional elaborate answers
for the viewing of others. The first time I recall the word design
was in a Robert Frost poem. design: a designated plan. What I see is that's
exactly what design is, its a structure that provides function and aesthetic
to everything it's applied to. These two forces have to be at great balance
and have to feedoff each other for the idea to attain success.
My main influences are all over
the artistic map; Salvador Dalí, Gabriel García Márquez,
Dave Kinsey, Barbara Kruger, 16th and 17th century Japanese Prints, Eugene
Atget, Helmut Newton, Tchaicovsky, El Lissitzky, Alexander Rodchenko,
Lazlo Moholy Nagy, Pink Floyd, The Bauhaus, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichentstein,
Milan Kundera, Oliver Stone, David Finch, Mike Myers, J R R Tolkien, like
I said about phrases, all of these people provide a sea of information
from which to explore my own views.
