Another week. Things are interesting with NDC. The moment we gave this little venture its own glory stricken pink presence it began demanding all sorts of stuff from us. For example it was no longer sufficient to look like some French resistance revolutionary back room bombed out office space with the dirty windows, now NDC wants good walls, decent trim, and some pink paint! Over the next couple months NDC is taking our office and turning it into a well honed design temple where daily prayers will be called from the roof over distorted loud speakers. We will chant stuff like GOOGLE LOVES YOU, and DESIGN WITH GRIDS. We can see the professionals gathering with their sleek indie clothing designed carpets laid out on the new floor (we intend to put in) bowing reverently to deities of design goodness. The whole scene will include Eucharist with Americano shooters, and organic spelt berry muffin wafers so that we may taste the proximity of graphic design love and the burning trinity of visual communication's compassionate heart. Is this starting to sound way to esoteric for a design firm? We roll that way sometimes... ask us about Vipassanā meditation during your new web design start up meeting. If sitting and observing your breathe doesn't get you in touch with the creator, then maybe driving damn fine cars real fast does, and if your into that, then you will probably want to know that NDC has been contemplating the nature of motorsports adventuring with a recent tasty oil based project for Targa Canada West. TCW is the passion extolled by Dr. Kelly Silverthorn an avid motorsports enthusiast who knows how to punch the pedal, cut corners fast, and work the engine during long distance rallies in the Targa vein (Read about Targa history here). We thought, "HELL YES!", Targa sounds fun, and threw some grease on our keyboards while we punched the throttle on building a site and promoting the Hell out of this great event. Denis and I are considering racing his old school BMW in the event, but only if we can paint pink stripes all over it before race day. What do you think of that? |
