| msikma | What's up? | 08:03 |
| msikma | How's Ubun2 going? | 08:05 |
| elkbuntu | it's still spelled without numbers, for start | 08:07 |
| msikma | Ubun2 is a design project for Ubuntu | 08:12 |
| elkbuntu | ah, cool | 08:13 |

| viller | what's happening with ubuntu-art? | 08:14 |
| viller | nothing is going on for feisty | 08:15 |
| kwwii | I guess it is still too early to tell | 08:18 |
| === msikma [n=Msikma@s55933ad4.adsl.wanadoo.nl] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| === effraie [n=effraie@jem75-1-82-228-146-152.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| viller | why too early | 08:26 |
| viller | they should say something | 08:26 |
| kwwii | sure, I agree, but since nothing has happened it must be too early for someone's planning | 08:27 |
| viller | the ubuntu-marketing list (which I'm also subscribed to) is having conversations all the time | 08:27 |
| viller | probably the developers list too | 08:27 |
| kwwii | sure | 08:27 |
| kwwii | my guess is that the problems during the last cycle still need to be worked out | 08:27 |
| viller | ok | 08:28 |
| kwwii | but I must add that even though Kubuntu artwork (which I did) worked out great and on time, there is also little happening on that front | 08:29 |

| kwwii | hi troy | 09:49 |
| kwwii | how's life? | 09:49 |
| troy_s | Busy as hell. | 09:50 |
| troy_s | Yourself? | 09:50 |
| === PingunZ greets kwwii and troy_s :) | ||
| troy_s | Pingunz... sorry bro... didn't see you there. | 09:50 |
| PingunZ | no problemo :) | 09:51 |
| kwwii | hi PingunZ | 09:51 |
| PingunZ | kwwii, Will you be the kubuntu Feisty artist ? :) | 09:52 |
| troy_s | The design for all buntu's is still completely hooped. | 09:52 |
| PingunZ | Can I get some detailt about that ? | 09:52 |
| PingunZ | :) | 09:52 |
| PingunZ | I wanna see that starbuck's work .. :) | 09:53 |
| kwwii | PingunZ: not sure...I've talked to sabdfl about it but until now do not have a contract | 09:56 |
| PingunZ | Hmm | 09:57 |
| PingunZ | Before I say mean things about sabfl .. can I see some starbuck work ? :) | 09:57 |
| troy_s | oh crap pingunz. did i not ship you some of their design work? | 09:58 |
| PingunZ | nowp | 09:58 |
| PingunZ | How bad is it ? :p | 09:58 |
| troy_s | here is a taster... | 09:58 |
| troy_s | lol. it is some of the best design of late 20th | 09:58 |
| === PingunZ downloads :) | ||
| PingunZ | troy_s, No, I mean .. icons .. or wallpapers .. or dunno | 10:00 |
| PingunZ | linux art | 10:00 |
| PingunZ | troy_s, Has he ever made any of those ? | 10:03 |
| troy_s | that is a team that ended up with that packaging. | 10:04 |
| troy_s | there is no 'he' in good design teams. | 10:04 |
| troy_s | although there are often folks at the higher end who get the accolades. | 10:04 |
| PingunZ | So .. is there any visible linux art online ? :D | 10:05 |
| msikma | Hello troy_s | 10:06 |
| msikma | How's Ubuntu art going? I've not paid attention to this channel for quite some t ime | 10:06 |
| PingunZ | msikma, I was just asking the same thing ;) | 10:07 |
| msikma | hehe | 10:07 |
| PingunZ | msikma, Looks like Starbuck is taking over .. don't ask me more :) | 10:07 |
| msikma | I have worked on some art but very little. And I still need to make the Metacity/widgets theme design into a real, working version. | 10:07 |
| PingunZ | you should ask troy_s about it .. looks like he knows more | 10:08 |
| msikma | I really don't have the time to learn all about it, unfortunately; at least not now. It seems like a slightly esoteric system. Maybe I'll post an advertisement so someone can do it for me and be the co-author of the theme. | 10:09 |
| troy_s | there is bugger all | 10:10 |
| troy_s | regarding official ubuntu artwork | 10:10 |
| troy_s | it is all in the hands of cliff | 10:10 |
| msikma | Cliff? | 10:10 |
| PingunZ | msikma, He seems to be the _art_ team now ;) | 10:11 |
| troy_s | he is | 10:11 |
| kwwii | examples of his work? | 10:11 |
| troy_s | he is the guy who did that tremendous job on dapper | 10:11 |
| PingunZ | I keep asking about it .. | 10:12 |
| troy_s | www.spacejunkdesign.com | 10:12 |
| PingunZ | What does tremendous mean ? :) | 10:12 |
| _MMA_ | Hi guys. Does Andrew Fitzsimon hang out here? Id like to chat with him about the "Ubuntu-Title" font. | 10:12 |
| troy_s | yes he does from time to time _MMA_ | 10:12 |
| PingunZ | rofl .. I'm stuck in his flash movie | 10:12 |
| troy_s | its the last flash | 10:12 |
| PingunZ | can I get a link to the real homepage ? :) | 10:12 |
| troy_s | you will need a proprietary system to see it or the beta linux | 10:12 |
| _MMA_ | troy_s: Whats his nick so I can keep an eye out. | 10:13 |
| PingunZ | I only see his picture | 10:13 |
| msikma | That site of his looks okay. Not anything great. | 10:13 |
| troy_s | _mma_ sorry i cant remember, it has his last name in it | 10:13 |
| msikma | I don't really like this kind of site, though, so I may be biased. I don't find the design thrilling. | 10:13 |
| troy_s | msikma -- its tripe. | 10:13 |
| _MMA_ | Ok. Thank you. | 10:14 |
| PingunZ | Can someone like .. link me to a picture of his site .. or send a a screenshot of some of his work ? :D | 10:14 |
| === PingunZ has flash probs | ||
| troy_s | most of it is spec work pingunz | 10:14 |
| troy_s | of shoes | 10:14 |
| troy_s | with a little that it looks like a friend of his used. | 10:14 |
| kwwii | cool stuff | 10:15 |
| msikma | PingunZ: sure | 10:15 |
| msikma | just a sec | 10:15 |
| PingunZ | k thanks | 10:15 |
| msikma | http://gamingw.net/pubaccess/28695/Picture%204_2.png | 10:15 |
| PingunZ | Nice .. | 10:16 |
| PingunZ | But does he have any *linux* art ? | 10:16 |
| troy_s | that's a good image. | 10:16 |
| troy_s | pingunz: it is kind of irrelevant. | 10:16 |
| msikma | troy_s: I don't do that JPEG rubbish :) just the real thing, 32-bit PNG! | 10:17 |
| troy_s | chances are, if sab is going to hire someone worth their salt (and I don't mean to hint that 'cliff' is _the_ guy) he will have probably zero linux experience. | 10:17 |
| msikma | Well, that can be a good thing too. But I sincerely believe that someone with a good amount of experience with the system is a better pick. | 10:17 |
| troy_s | but until sab accepts that no one 'worth their salt' will put up with micromanaging when it comes to art and design, it will repeat the same cycles. | 10:18 |
| troy_s | msikma -- certainly pros and cons to both. | 10:18 |
| troy_s | ultimately, it needs to be a design lead. not a single solo warrior type. | 10:18 |
| troy_s | someone who is attentive to contemporary design (outside of gimmicky operating system hell) and a formalized education in design. | 10:19 |
| PingunZ | look at kw.wii .. he made the suse art .. as a singe art warrior .. and he got promoted to a *herO* | 10:19 |
| troy_s | hey look at pingunz | 10:19 |
| troy_s | that image has liebniz in it | 10:19 |
| PingunZ | rofl | 10:19 |
| troy_s | lol | 10:19 |
| kwwii | lol | 10:20 |
| troy_s | we were talking about it yesterday with his theory of language that operates at the speed of thought / light. | 10:20 |
| === PingunZ is off to bed | ||
| kwwii | I wish | 10:20 |
| PingunZ | night all | 10:20 |
| msikma | Oh, troy_s, take a look here: http://www.yomaraugusto.com/ - this is a Brazillian designer who came to work at our studio recently, he's got amazing typography stuff. | 10:20 |
| troy_s | that's the thing | 10:20 |
| troy_s | a good lead will know that linework, typography etc, are all different domains. | 10:20 |
| msikma | He's teaching us calligraphy courses | 10:20 |
| troy_s | looking now... is it bloody flash? | 10:20 |
| msikma | Yes, sorry. The site is rubbish, he doesn't know anything about the web. Some friend of his made it. | 10:21 |
| troy_s | hold on loading a shite 32 bit browser. | 10:21 |
| troy_s | wow... | 10:21 |
| troy_s | is it all his? | 10:21 |
| troy_s | that mixing of sketch with illustration is pretty po mo | 10:22 |
| troy_s | i like that quite a bit. | 10:22 |
| msikma | haha, maybe a bit | 10:22 |
| msikma | Yeah, all of it is his. | 10:22 |
| msikma | It's really amazing to watch him grab a calligraphy pen and jot down beautiful typefaces as if it's his handwriting | 10:23 |
| troy_s | his sketchbooks are nice too. | 10:23 |
| troy_s | i like that styling... that is that really cutting edge organic feel. | 10:23 |
| troy_s | contemporary organics. | 10:23 |
| troy_s | quite beautiful really. | 10:23 |
| troy_s | wow... | 10:24 |
| troy_s | his illustration is quite amazing. | 10:24 |
| msikma | I like the brownone sketch book. You can get a good view of his calligraphy stuff from it. | 10:24 |
| troy_s | msikma -- under image the 'illustration' link | 10:24 |
| troy_s | very good work | 10:24 |
| troy_s | gee no shocker | 10:25 |
| troy_s | masters in fine art | 10:25 |
| troy_s | from the nederlands. | 10:25 |
| msikma | from Brazil :) | 10:25 |
| troy_s | impressive stuff | 10:25 |
| troy_s | yes but his ma is from the home of rem | 10:25 |
| msikma | I'm glad you like it. | 10:25 |
| troy_s | actually, the studio you are grunting in has some pretty talented folks. the hr department knows what to look for on a resume. | 10:25 |
| msikma | We don't have a hr department. :P | 10:26 |
| troy_s | well | 10:26 |
| troy_s | the head cheeses who are doing the hiring then... how does that sound? | 10:26 |
| msikma | Including interns, there's 9 of us. | 10:26 |
| troy_s | they are hiring folks with a good compliment of ability and education assuring that they will be on the edge of contemporary design. | 10:26 |
| troy_s | so this fellow is one of the 9? | 10:26 |
| msikma | Yep | 10:27 |
| troy_s | 'superficy' is quite a nice photo too... | 10:27 |
| troy_s | latrec black is well done too. | 10:27 |
| troy_s | sheesh... | 10:27 |
| msikma | Very inspiring to look at a good portfolio. | 10:28 |
| troy_s | well it is inspiring to look at work that is innovative | 10:28 |
| msikma | He told me that Brazilian design is essentially much like German design. | 10:29 |
| troy_s | emily carr has some very talented students over here. | 10:29 |
| msikma | Is that where you spent college? | 10:29 |
| troy_s | no | 10:29 |
| troy_s | i have a few aquaints who gradded from there. | 10:30 |
| troy_s | the 'bizz' cover on his page is impressive. | 10:31 |
| troy_s | i have to say i love yoma's stylings. right up my alley. | 10:31 |
| troy_s | wow -- looks like he did a mercado release or was involved. | 10:32 |
| troy_s | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_carr -- that's the artist who's name the school is founded in. | 10:33 |
