The big mix up

|

The only thing I love more than graphic design is music. Specifically, listening to and combining sets of songs into mixes.

If I wasn't an art director working for a magazine, I would probably be a struggling dj somewhere. To pay tribute to my favorite past time, I created a new mix about mixes and posted it to the Web's best mixmaker haven -- Art of the Mix. Be sure to drop into their image gallery. The art that folks submit can range from cheesy Web graphic collages to sophisticated covers featuring original artwork and typographic treatments. Truly a must-see, even for the non-mix lovin' creative type.

But back to those of you who would consider yourself a mix appreciator or creator, be sure to add Thurston Moore's latest book Mix Tape : The Art of Cassette Culture to your library, or just hop over to Wired to read his article "The Best 90 Minutes of My Life" or to NPR to listen to his thoughts.
