Brain power
As a child I remember watching documentary about the human brain. In the final scene, a subject had wires coming from his head connected to a toy train set. He was able to control the train with his brain. Illustration for Scientific America for David Pogue’s column about the brain as a remote control for future devices. Ann Chin, AD.
This or that
One of my obsessions when Mrs. Yang is away on one of her many projects is organizing the house when she’s gone. I’m always fascinated with how fellow illustrators create their workspace and look for ideas to steal. This illustration was done for SooJin Buzelli for PlanSponsor magazine about organizing your financial house.
Society of Illustrators 55
More good news from the Society of Illustrators as the “Get Out the Vote” poster for the AIGA was accepted into the advertising category for SOI 55 annual show. Much thanks to the Society and art director Joanne Zamore for the excellent job.
Island of one
Post mortems are always fascinating. The big idea after the most recent election was demographics and the mathematical problems one party might have in the future if they keep on their current path. This illustration for the Chronicle of Higher Education was about the isolation first generation students feel on campus. Ellen Winkler, AD
Aches and Pains
The Booming section of the New York Times speaks to me in more ways than is comfortable. Once I pulled a rib muscle taking a nap. My life has come to the point where stretching properly before sleep is necessary. Illustration about the Boomer generation obsessing over aches and pains. Laura Chang, Editor.
Jet green
Airlines are on my mind as our flight back to JFK has been cancelled because of Hurricane Sandy. We were originally arriving today but looks like we won’t be back until Friday. Fortunately we’re staying with fellow illustrators and photographers so we are sharing studios until New York clears up. Illustration for Time Magazine about the push by airlines to use biofuel. Nai Lee Lum, AD.
