The emphasis was to develop different display type. This is a work in progress. http://cyanandblack.com/289129/Type Elaborate Contraptions http://cyanandblack.com/384394/Elaborate-Contraptions http://cyanandblack.com/384394/Elaborate-Contraptions Thu, 29 Apr 2010 20:31:16 +0000 Cyan and Black 384394 Previous / Next image (1 of 3)<img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/384394/cargo-elaborate.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/384394/cargo-elaborate1.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/384394/cargo-elaborate3.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> Elaborate Contraptions is a book about how to plan and build a chain reaction that performs a simple task. It outlines the different principles of physics and building in order to build one of your own, and then demonstrates start to finish how we built ours. It explains how to solve a problem creatively and how to work out the kinks to make your machine run smoothly. http://cyanandblack.com/384394/Elaborate-Contraptions Handbills http://cyanandblack.com/383058/Handbills http://cyanandblack.com/383058/Handbills Thu, 29 Apr 2010 01:22:17 +0000 Cyan and Black 383058 Previous / Next image (1 of 2)<img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/383058/cargo-handbills.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/383058/cargo-handbills2.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> The handbills project was done in response to working at the publicity center on my campus. Hundreds of handbills would be ordered for every event, and in a lot of cases sit unused. This project took all of the handbills left over from old events that were sitting around, and were folded into paper airplanes to show how this marketing strategy is ineffective and wasteful. In addition to the left over handbills, 100 new airplanes were created and distributed to the programing offices, with suggestions for alternate publicity, and an opportunity to give feedback. http://cyanandblack.com/383058/Handbills Cyanimals http://cyanandblack.com/343287/Cyanimals http://cyanandblack.com/343287/Cyanimals Wed, 28 Apr 2010 21:57:56 +0000 Cyan and Black 343287 Previous / Next image (1 of 2)<img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/343287/cargo-cyanimals.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/343287/cargo-cyanimals1.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> Cyanimals is a illustration blog that I started to channel my need to make tiny cute things. This way I can focus a little time out of my day to make a new animal with its eyes dangerously low on its face.

MP33 is a record store. With actual records. But this record store is not full of scratched up used vinyl from people’s basements or garages. This record store is selling the latest releases as well as an older collection of new vinyl. But here’s the twist. Along with all vinyl purchases come digital copies of the album. That means you can have the rich audio quality of a new record, and the easy portability of an mp3. http://cyanandblack.com/142115/MP33 about http://cyanandblack.com/118318/about http://cyanandblack.com/118318/about Wed, 21 Oct 2009 04:54:25 +0000 Cyan and Black 118318 <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/11482/118318/about-pg.png" border="0" width="670" height="365" align="left" /> Nicole Mills is a designer and illustrator from Bellingham, Washington, where she is finishing her BFA in Graphic Design.
