Contemporary Needle Art
I went to see my doctor this morning and was so excited to walk into the lobby of the building and recognize the knitted artwork of Emily Barletta. Her work was all over the blogosphere this past year and it definitely caught my eye.
It is currently being shown as part of a group show;
Stitched, Looped, and Knitted: Contemporary Needle Art.
Featuring Emily Barletta, Lauren DiCioccio, Laura Kamian, Aliza Lelah, Ruth Marshall, Lacy Jane Roberts, Lisa Solomon, Esther Traugot, Marina Vendrell.
September 21 - December 4
The Mills Building
220 Montgomery Street
San Francisco CA 94104
I snapped a few quick pics of Barletta's work and the pieces of a few of the other artists featured:

The Art of the Film Title
At last year's SF International Animation Festival, I caught a showing of PLAY: The Art of the Animated Film Title by Design Films. It was a series of film title sequences from the 1950s to the present, designed by the likes of Saul Bass, Maurice Binder, Jakob Trollbäck & Co. and many more. I've been holding on to the program for almost a year now, with the intention of looking up the films again. So I've decided to list them here for you along with clips of the sequences found on YouTube or links to where you can watch them elsewhere online.

Tweet, Tweet
Micro-blogging a la Twitter has completely taken over my life. OK, that might be a tad drastic, but I'm at least a little bit addicted. So, in honor of Twitter, I bring you Twitter-themed Etsy finds.

My birthday is coming
Acceptable birthday gifts include (but are not limited to):
1. An iPhone. I am probably the only design dork who still does not have one. Sad. Though you might want to just give me a gift certificate because I've heard through the Twitterverse that a new one will be out in June.
2. This puppy.
3. OR this one.
4. Visits from friends.
5. A sound machine - haven't been sleeping well with all of the street / house noise
6. A TRIP! Anywhere!
7. A road bike. Mine is cute and works well as a commuter bike, but I would love to go on longer weekend rides and it's just not going to cut it. I'm really intrigued by these bamboo bikes by Calfee Design, as bamboo is a really sustainable material. But they're certainly not cheap.
