Desktop AR Issue

This is pretty exciting. July's issue of Desktop Magazine features an augmented reality marker on the cover. Once you have purchased your copy head on over to http://www.desktopmag.com.au/ar, fire up the webcam and enjoy the animation by the talented folks over at Boffswana. The Desktop Magazine July issue is on sale from today.

SOYA 2010

The Qantas Spirit Of Youth Awards (SOYA) is the leading grants program for emerging creative talent. SOYA provides practical support in the form of $10,000 in flights and cash, but the real incentive is the opportunity to build a professional mentoring relationship with creative leaders like Marc Newson, Zimmermann, Deanne Cheuk, Jan Chapman and Liz Ann Macgregor, helping young innovators expand their horizons, build up their business base, and learn the ropes from leading industry icons and some of the greatest creative minds in the world.

Mark Gowing

I make no secret I have a few favorite Australian designers. I probably even have a top 5... but that is probably taking things too far. If there were such a thing, Mark Gowing is in my top 5 without a doubt. I know, fan boy right...

The first time I experienced Marks work first hand was for the suburban theatre company (in the suburb I grew up in, Belrose represent!) Glen Street Theatre. Since then I am constantly blown away by Marks work for the likes of Hopscotch Films, 2SER, The Weather Channel and more recently his hand in motion works, EyeSaw and numerious cultural posters.

The above image is from Mark's exhibition at the Warsaw International Poster Biennale. His website also had a massive update over the weekend, much more incredible work to explore: http://www.markgowing.com

Xtra Shiny

With a name and logo as cute as Xtra Shiny, I expected just as much from their portfolio. I wasn't let down. This Adelaide based team produces solid and diverse work, all showcased in a slick website. I adore the illustrations used on the above GHD campaign: http://www.xtrashiny.com.au

Semi-Permanent Brisbane 2010

Semi-Permanent 2010 rolls into Brisbane this Friday with an impressive roster of industry speakers which are sure to impress.

INfront will be showing support by sending along Joel Goodman to be our man on the ground for the day. Joel will be reporting back with live tweets, photos and wraps on each speaker to keep you actively informed.

Similar to the RAFW 2010 coverage we have loaded the events system with speaker interviews, bios and galleries. During the week we will continue to add more interviews and gallery images to each speaker.

Get over to our pre-coverage and soak up some interview goodness from the likes of Vince Frost, Jasper Goodall, Alexia Sinclair and Stephen Dupont before the main event.

New Talk: A Positive Spin

Marcus Piper has posted his latest Talk article aptly titled, 'A Positive Spin' which takes to task the industry reaction to foreign agencies winning local cultural briefs.

This direct address to the very core of the local commercial creative industry is sure to strike a chord within the community.

Flood

Flood is a team of super talented individuals whom we have featured in various forms over the last few months.

They are responsible in part for many creative endeavours such as TCWK, See-Saw, Ice Cream Magazine and Happenstance. On top of that, they have launched their new site today.

Robbie Powell

Robbie Powell has some fantastic design work and some equally beautiful photos.
