See CS4, LR2 in person at Adobe HQ
If you’ll be in the San Jose area next Tuesday, Oct. 14, you’re welcome to join us for the next meeting of the area Photoshop User Group. Info, pizza, and drinks are on the house, and event details are below.
Bryan O’Neil Hughes, from Adobe Systems, will show presentations on the new Lightroom 2 and the even newer Photoshop CS4. We’ll have pizza and drinks at 6:30, and the meeting will start at 7:00, in the Park Conference Room of Adobe Systems’ East Tower, 321 Park Avenue, San Jose. To park underneath the Adobe building, use the Almaden Avenue entrance, under the East Tower. If the security guard at the parking entrance asks for an Adobe contact, use Bryan O’Neil Hughes’s name. He’s our contact there (as well as a Photoshop Product Manager). Please RSVP via Evite, and feel free to forward this invitation to anyone you know who might be interested. If you would like to be on our email list, send a note to dan@weinberg-clark.com. See you there, Dan Clark and Tom Upton
Monday Illustrations: Current events to optical illusions
- Current events:
- The Sarah Palin Debate Flow Chart [Via]
- An NYT infographic shows how Congress voted, district by district, on the bailout plan (first time around) [Via]
- From the history books:
- While the Supreme Court considers tobacco company advertising practices, Contexts.org posts some vintage Marlboro ads targeted at moms. [Via]
- CreativePro’s got a roundup of strange old illustrations found by Gene Gable. (SF is so colorful and gay!)
- James White pulls together Saul Bass’s most iconic logos. [Via]
- I love Bryan Katzel’s super cool long-scrolling design. Scroll down the page to see how it mixes foreground elements with a stationary background. [Via]
- Optical tricks:
- Axel Peemoeller has crafted a parking lot signage system whose messages can be read only from certain angles.
- I have no idea how this works, but I like it: Math, art, and the Droste effect
