Illustrator Martin Ansin’s poster for the recent ‘Taming Light‘ exhibition featuring painting, photography and illustration inspired by the films of Stanley Kubrick. Would love to get a copy of this.

Strangelove™
Strangelove™ – Font inspired by Pablo Ferro’s hand-drawn type used in the titles for Stanley Kubrick’s ‘Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb’. Also includes some great dingbat/illustrations.
Stanley Kubrick Reanimated
Antony Hare’s reanimated portrait of Stanley Kubrick, drawn and re-played using Adobe Illustrator.
Stanley Kubrick's Napoleon
Jeff Dawson of the Times’ article ‘Stanley Kubrick’s Napoleon: the greatest movie never made?’ is an interesting re-telling of the usual Kubrick/Napoleon stories which ties with in the release of Alison Castle’s book in November. The (expensive) limited edition book looks fantastic and comes with access to an on-line library of 17,000 related Napoleon images. Hopefully Taschen will do a cheaper re-print as they did with the ‘Stanley Kubrick Archives‘.
Connected: Moon, Maths, Jon Hopkins
- Moon – Duncan Jone’s homage to classic sci-fi starring Sam Rockwell is out in June. Watching the trailer there’s distinct parallels to Kubrick’s ‘2001‘ and the Clooney version of Andrei Tarkovsky’s Solaris especially with the overall-look of the film. Also worth checking out is Gavin Rothery’s concept art for the film.
- iPhone Math Apps – Round-up of math apps for the iPhone via Wired.
- Caught Jon Hopkins supporting Plaid at the recent Ether Festival. Got to say that his latest album ‘Insides‘ is my favourite album so far this year. Top notch electronica!
