Blotter Art – Trippy Tiles

admin — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 17:46:32 +0000

I came across a great site – blotterart.com. Blotter art is the art used on sheets of tiled and perforated paper for ingesting LSD (d-lysergic acid diethylamide). Each tiled piece is a “hit” of LSD. There are some amazing and beautiful designs that have been created throughout the years. Really an inspiration to look at. Blotter Art has become a highly collectible form of art. There are signed additions of famous blotters and such at the site. There are many sites showing examples of this cool art medium, but blotterart.com is a great place to feast your eyes (and maybe lighten your wallet) if you are into collecting. The image below is of a Geisha Girl Blotter signed by the Grandmaster of trippyness himself – Timothy Leary!

Top 100 Plus Design Blogs: Inspire and Re-wire Your Desire

admin — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 00:17:15 +0000

This list of Top 100 Plus Design Blogs is used mostly for my personal inspiration. Design Blogs come in many flavors. These flavors are more dynamic than most web docs due to the nature of their creators… designers at heart. I hope you find a blog that you have not seen yet. I will append this list as I see fit… If you have a Design Blog and it’s not on the list (and you think it should be on this Top list) submit your site in the comments. We would all love to have a look see. I’m at 125 design blogs and counting. Here we go (in no particular order)… I was going to just make a list, but decided to put a little more heart into it. Plus, this way you can get a visual taste of what your eyes will encounter when you visit a site.
