So says Sisyphus?
FROM PAPER TO PIXELS, design and code, and everything in between. The world is a list. A list tells a tale. I am a list: Typography, infographics, publication & book design, logos, UI, UX, animation, data science, app design, yet to be imagined things. A prosaic list perhaps. Let me share with you another list (not as practical, but more interesting…).
Jorge Luis Borges claims the provenance of the list that follows is from “a certain Chinese encyclopedia” called the Celestial Emporium of Benevolent Knowledge, said to divide animals into “(a) those that belong to the Emperor, (b) embalmed ones, (c) those that are trained, (d) suckling pigs, (e) mermaids, (f) fabulous ones, (g) stray dogs, (h) those that are included in the present classification, (i) those that tremble as if they are mad, (j) innumerable ones, (k) those drawn with a very fine camelhair brush, (l) others, (m) those that have just broken a flower vase, (n) those that look like flies from a long way off.”

If you have a list that you would like transformed into splendid paper or spectacular pixels, let’s chat about your vision. Please email me – factotum at this dot com.
