So... what to do for this Art Basel in Miami? How about more than 150 artists, music, live painting, body painting among other things under 1 roof for 12 hours straight? That sounds like a plan for me... Plus, I designed the flyer, so... yeah. See you all there! Oh! And due to some technical issues, the opening is actually not on the 3rd, but tomorrow Dec 4th.

THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS!

This guy never ceases to amaze me. Scott Hansen was a great inspiration for me through college, both as a designer, and musically with his DJ alter ego Tycho. Even though I have shifted in styles, his artwork always strikes me and leaves me in awe. I haven't had the opportunity or time to follow his blog like I used to, nor listened to his newest tracks. I am sure they are amazing, judging by the ones from the past.

It seems that everybody is feeling the need to freshen up their brand now a days. We've seen it with big corporations such as AT&T and Xerox. The time has come for MSN to re-analyze their brand, and so they did. I still haven't drawn any conclusions as to how I feel about this one. In one hand, I do like the new typography a lot better, I am not a fan of italic logos. I am still trying to figure out why a butterfly...

This whole week has been a waiting game. Anxiety hits me and my friends as we wait impatiently for the upcoming Funkshion: Fashion Week Miami Beach. My friend Stefani was kind enough to contact the right people and got us press passes to cover the event. As a prelude to this awaited event, I had to, of course, get new gear. Amongst the newly acquired items, are these Steve Madden boots. I can't wait to put them to good use next week, while taking photos and meeting awesome people. Look back for more posts on the event next week. Till then!

While taking a look at issue #59 of V magazine, I came across a little interview with artist Rye Rye. Even though I was really interested about reading about her achievements as a young artist, what really caught my attention was her shoes–some really nice hi-top sneakers with a leopard print on them.

I am calling all designers, photographers, copywriters and illustrators! I am looking to start an online magazine with general creative content. All of you interested, potential collaborates, please email me at contact@albertoorsini.com so I can send you a proposition with the scope of what I want to create. All types of artists welcome.

I had to get them. I actually got them a size bigger just because they didn't have my size and I needed this. What? Yes, it is necessity. Ok... Maybe not, but I really wanted them. Aren't they cool?
