Reeve Rixon - Portfolio
Check out the fantastic portfolio of designer-editor-photgrapher...well everything'er, Reeve Rixon. If I needed a creative head I'd give him an interview just to see his hand-crafted wooden portfolio!
Stunning work across numerous disciplines. Check out his website here.

NYC Phoneharmonic
A truly brilliant medley of the most popular ringtones, performed by a small orchestra. Loved this piece from start to finish, great work indeed.

Cardiff Met - The Graphic Spectacle
The Graphic Spectacle from Julian Deborré on Vimeo.
Always a great show to check out if you're in the Cardiff area. My old stomping ground of Cardiff Metropolitan University (formerly UWIC).
Great promo video too! Definitely recognise the shop at the start, think I must have lived round the corner from it.

The Wayback Machine
The Wayback Machine is a tool hosted on the Internet Archive which sends you back in time on the internet! It may be nerdy, it may be incredibly boring to others, but I found it fascinating to took at the history of some of the major brands and how far both them and the web itself have come since the birth of the internet.
Here's some of my finds so far!
Clarks 1998 - MS paint style
Google 1998
Myspace.com 1996 - They definitely sold that domain name too cheap!
