My dear friend Adrian emailed me to let me know that Rinzen (he is a proud member of this unstoppable vector powerhouse) will be featured in the upcoming April issue (number 87) of Juxtapoz Magazine.
I should note that this is the first time Rinzen will have their portraits shown (as a group), unadorned by their signature vector illustration.

Congratulations, Rinzen on a well-deserved spot!

Ponyloaf’s Grey Area
Ninja August 14th, 2007
I’ve been listening to the Cowboy Bebop box set lately. But today Brisbane electronic act, Ponyloaf, came back on my radar. They describe their music as “cyber-industrial synthrock robocore.”
I’m happy to say that ALL of their CDs are finally available for purchase online! Wohoo!
Their latest CD, Grey Area, came out in late June.
Their older albums feature some lovely vector art. =) These images are from their first CD, Epic Travels.
And these are from their second CD, O Complex.

Back from the future (crossed the int’l date line on the way home)
Ninja May 28th, 2007
Hallo everyone! I trust you’re all enjoying your long weekends. =) I just flew back on the red eye from LA and am trying to stay awake to re-adjust my sleep schedule. Alas, I only got 15 minutes of sleep on the flight so this is probably a losing battle. I already feel my eye lids closing on their own accord.
It feels good to be back home! I came back to a lovely surprise—not one, but two packages greeted me.
The one on the left is from Adrian, and the one on the right is from Stefan. =D
Stickers, postcards, and a fun tee in the first package. How sweet of him! Thanks, Adrian. =)
Yay!!! And my original monster from Stefan! Danke!!! We agreed to an art swap a while ago. I mentioned that I really liked the way he drew bark, so he kindly drew a winged friend perched on a branch. He also included a very nice handwritten note =) Such a kind and funny guy!

I’m working on making a Mother’s Day gift guide for the modern mum and came across these tees. If you or your mum are into comfy tees, why not check out the selection from 2K. 2K invites artists and designers to come up with their own cool tees (Bjork, Yoko Ono, Experimental Jetset, Upnorth). They normally go for $35 a pop (not including shipping), but they’re having a sale now! Select tees are just $19.95. The 2 tees I’m eying are these lil’ numbers from Rinzen & Shynola.
