shape of sound

‘The Shape of Sound’ is an interactive audio-visual performance by Dead J and Dora.S. They use music as the trigger to dictate the visual transformation. The visual element includes dot, line, surface, triangle, square, sphere and other basic geometric shapes, with the music interaction it brings a swift and fierce audio-visual experience. 

a lovely font from a design magazine

I've found a magazine cover from a Chinese design magazine"设计界”, loved the font of title, the squares and the gaps, for me it's a great font design, its accurately converys the tone of the magazine.

Qi Pao

The cheongsam play /tʃi.ɒŋˈsæm/[1] is a body-hugging (modified in Shanghai) one-piece Chinese dress for women; the male version is the changshan. It is known in Mandarin Chinese as the qípáo (旗袍; pronounced [t͡ɕʰǐ pʰɑ̌ʊ̯]) Wade-Giles ch'i-p'ao, and is also known in English as a mandarin gown. The stylish and often tight-fitting cheongsam or qipao (chipao) that is most often associated with today was created in the 1920s in Shanghai and was made fashionable by socialites and upperclass women.[2] 
defination from wikipedia.


Searching and gathering information for my "hero" assignment, stray from the point as usual... found this image accidentally, adore it! such a nice dress, beautiful colour,!! For me it's not only a dress, it's also means a period of history, means 20s of China, the golden age of Shanghai,means a lot more...

Reflection

This is a practice I did for typography poster. I tried using mask tool in Photoshop to create a reflection effect.

Words behind images

Public-interest adverting are always a good example of visual communication. I found two smashing images when I looking for wallpapers for my ipod, those 2 images delivery serious information without any words as many public-interest ads does. Sometimes images can beyond any words.
