well, that distinction still exists, although it's true that a lot of designers working on the web do their own front-end dev. but design for the web is just a combination of graphic design and interaction design. most sites are content- rather than functionality-driven, so it's predominantly graphic design

on all of monte's sites, including MonteIT* the only fonts he uses are default type faces and ornamental SP fonts. i'm sure the only fonts he knows are SP fonts
so bill goes "hey monte i want someone to redo the site for free" and monte's like OMGZ SERIOUSLY YOU JUST MADE MY LIFE and bill's like 'uh okay' and then monte throws something together with Lansbury and bill goes "dude i'm kind of past that font' and monte's like oh fuck what do i do now and he just fiddles around until he finds the default system font that looks the most like what he thinks an SP font looks like, papyrus. |

In my experience it has been functional websites that contain inventories and ways to purchase selections of thousands of items and also maintain that site. But they're looking for a book designer, for instance. Or a sign printer.
I tell them I can design that site but can't be responsible for building and maintaining it. That's a whole other can of worms. |

That new website looks like something you would find when you use "The Wayback Machine".
By the way >>> Here's the SP website from 2000: http://web.archive.org/web/200010180...ofi/index.html 2001: http://web.archive.org/web/200110310...ofi/index.html |

well i meant her and monte but you know what
what if all three of them worked on this POS website, i'd believe that too which would mean bill just doesn't care anymore, actually. because it's not like that was true of the album presentation and general art direction, which I'm SURE he had a big hand in, up until the last two even machina, which i hated, was a fucking gorgeously packaged piece of artwork. but ocieannaennrennerner is basically the liner notes equivalent of this website |

To my eyes the artwork went to another level as early as Zwan. Yea cute and all, but nowhere near the SP albums. Future Embrace wasn't ugly, but forgettable, absolutely ordinary.
And then came ""ahaha the zeitgeist is we-no-care-trash, and since I'm such a culture critic I'll make fun of it by doing an entire special edition wannabe KidA booklet featuring Paris fucking Hilton. Gotta DUMB IT DOWN." And here we are now. Machina really was the end of artwork. |

Machina was more or less the end of Yelena's involvement with SP's art direction.

Sure. but that's not a reason to go in a [...don't know the correct word] "unartsy bullshit" direction, just an excuse. It's the same excuse regarding music videos. Yes the 90s are over bla the market changed bla there is no million dollar budget for a video. As if you can't do a good, interesting, creative music video (or packaging design and album cover) for far less. It's an bullshit excuse to blame a reduced budget instead of admitting that you are simply too lazy or unimaginative to put work into it. And the production costs of the Zeitgeist edition must have still been pretty high, you hardly ever see paper of that quality around by now. Quote:
Maybe he'll come round and step away from this DIY approach. Getting a producer for this album was a good first step. Last edited by pavementtune : 03-27-2014 at 04:11 AM. |

why did billly changed the name to "...nexus", why nexus? nexus is old fashion already, it is not original, sounds bad. Bad fucking choice. and why tha fuck is resistance pro and zuzus on a official SP site??? zuzus ad I could live with, it is something zen, odd teas etc... but resistance pro wrestling, shit amateur wrestling? Why Billy Why? This guy is really loosing all the feeling to touch the things. |
