@torietorie HA. A nobel thought to connect global warming, Al Gore, with all of this destruction… there seems to be a few puns which fit: www, flames, tag clouds…

Nice commentary by Mr. Kottke… I love the reference to Adolf Wolflii. Maybe there will appear some similar meta-narrative maps. Are the horizontal lines a staff of future musical notation?

SH is off to a solid start. The little Broken Arrows simultaneously recall Neil Young in Topanga Canyon and Harry Nilsson’s The Point.

bravo! stole my heart with this one! The hat flies down to cap this off and the lady bird beetle gets to charge with the black horse of victory! Peace, indeed; if only we as a people could solve our own battle for peace in such a loving, heartfelt way.

My feeling is that it is not only a lame font choice, but a weak answer. I would have liked to be rid of the awkward torso, not merely “covering it up,” blushing, with a prudish, girlish twinkle or zap. the animals have lost the plot. illustrations are the only savior of this one for me. #8 get’s a backwards-facing trucker-hat… back to work. I’d thought it was all sown up for CousCous but now I can’t see any signs of a clear win.

Vanity? His or ours? Consistently imbalanced use of the color pallet. Poor typographic choices, Cap/no-cap nonsense… in white?!
There is one beautiful idea here, on the nape of the neck, which takes away my breath.

Many abhor purple. People endeavor lame techniques hourly or regularly. Please..

Rainbows of sensuous energy never qualify, under intense situations, to establish an artists appeal for the art to be taken seriously..
Oh, and I have an abhorrence of purple.

I’d like to see it when these are brought back down to earth.
The progression has seemed to lose it’s footing more with each step. Maybe that’s alright. But I agree with the consensus that these are all overwrought so far.

... because of 9, I have to vote for Kevin.

I think that Shaun jumped the shark with his return to his previous Summer Solstice design; whereas Kevin very naturally returned to motifs that he had set down throughout the match, without merely resorting to default filters. ~ R4 Chumps

Outstanding play!!
bringing the multi-verse together in a completely unexpected manner… both visually and literally.

Disappointing fourth volley.
I thought that to turn from 2.oh to a real world print application was a real stroke of genius. Shifting the baseline upside down for the return address was a bit adolescent perhaps. But for a boy of 15, a man of 30 or even an old coot of 40 or 45, it is aces over kings above what Shaun turned in. Late.

“A tool is a tool” is a harsh call when it comes to a discussion of default filters. Are four chumps, in a game of doubles, to lob a soft return when served with such deftness? I would say Kevin’s redux dexterity isn’t merely a lob. I read an applicable quote in the book Abstracting Craft. Speaking of tennis, pagan rituals and other incunabula, Jan Tschichold said it best, “Rückstellung Filter sind für Holzklötze”.
