This set of images is simply called "All images make a sound". I have no idea who created them, just found it on http://thingsilikethatyoumightliketoo.blogspot.com/.

Really love this work by Will Dorner - there's a whole range of photos and scenes. It's kind of silly yet interesting to look at. It reminds me of the stupid dancing I sometimes do when I'm bored in a nightclub - consisting of not dancing at all, and moving just one body part out of time. Very strange...

Douglas Fraser. His style is bold and powerful. I like the way he constructs his paintings and gives figures strength through harsh, dark tones around their muscles. The way he uses heavy blacks give each piece a serious undertone. Above is a picture of last weeks Time magazine cover (14th June).

...these lovely prints by Sam Bevlak. Really nice quality to them. Printed on old bits of paper with type on, a nice aesthetic is given by the layering of old and new. I just love the way the type shows through the gaps, giving an extra dimension to each print and a sense of depth.

...these nice illustrations by Josh Cochran.

...these fantastic posters for some of Quentin Tarantino's films; including my favourite film of all time - Jackie Brown. Designed by Ibraheem Youssef, the posters are clearly directed towards the fans, as many of them require seeing the films to understand them. Saying that, on their own they stand out as very striking pieces with a good use of typography, especially in the Jackie Brown and Reservoir Dogs posters. I also love the way Youssef has used crayons to represent the characters in Reservoir Dogs - they are given code names of Mr.Brown, Mr.Orange etc. to protect their identities for a 'bank job'.
