Interesting logo and social music networking site – Soundcloud. Love the integration of sound waves into the cloud! Soundcloud makes it easy to share, send and receive music. I’m gonna check it out and let you guys know what I think. Checkout my profile here: http://soundcloud.com/nikibrown/

Nano-chromatic? wtf?  Apple also refers to the iPod Touch as “The funnest iPod ever?” Who did apple hire to do the copywriting? Needless to say I still bought a touch (boylston apple store didnt have them…i ordered online…boooo).

One of my graphic designy friends gave me one of Scotts posters as a gift a few years ago. So after this poster I discovered his other work that features lots of smooth vector graphics, texture, angle and great typography:

Scott is also a musician, and he is the man behind Tycho – a mix of laid back electronic music. He describes his music as “rolling sonic landscapes that extend off into the horizon”. I listen to his music when I design. It puts me in a calm, serene state.
