Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far is the latest book by the master Stefan Sagmeister, one of the grand designers of modern day design.
A while ago I read that the book’s packaging was laser cut to reveal different swapable patterns through Sagmeister’s face; but this video really explains how it works.
Awesome. The one I like the most is the T.
Plus the book is really cheap!. US$24 at Amazon.

Just today I received a comment on my blog from the very people who were behind the amazing Artificial Dummies I posted a while ago. They’re the great minds of TODO and the heads up was from their very own Andrea.
TODO is, in their own words, an interaction and media design agency. Stablished in Italy, this group has a whole lot going for them. Kickass interactive works, a kickass website, a kickass video collection and even better, an amazing level of creativity.
At the risk of being a bit repetitive, the video I left you above is an explanation of the almighty Artificial Dummies. Beautiful music and a subtle explanation on the little creatures.
Still I urge you to check out their websites. Their work is really a pleasure to watch and imagine.
Thanks a lot Andrea on the heads up! Much success!.

For those of you who don’t know , Bodies: The Exhibition is an event created by german artist and scientist Gunther Von Hagens, where real human corpses preserved through the process of plastination are showcased to observe human anatomy at its core.
Yesterday I had the privilege of seeing this exhibition and even more, to see it with the lovely Paula, and without a doubt, this is a unique event.
With tours that go through each of the body systems, a disposition of the different body parts that allows thorough analysis of each, and assistance from young health related students; this exhibition is at first an obliged visit for anyone in the medicine field, but mostly it is an event that must be seen by anyone who wants to understand and be amazed by the wonder of the human body.
For further information visit Bodies’ official website.

The fellas over at Coroflot take a yearly survey to designers from different areas and places all over the world. It’s purpose is to answer different questions regarding salaries throughout countries, creative fields, specialities, etc.
The image shown above shows the yearly income around the world for a designer in year 2007. For our short-sighted friends around here, the country with the lowest yearly income is Brazil with US$25,869, and the one with the highest is India with US$65,262 a year.
Be sure to check the survey to see several other interesting charts as well as prior years’ surveys.
