Lots of PSST’ers and friends will be at OFFF NYC Nov 2-4th. Dstrukt and the Ronin are going to be presenting and they’re also doing the main titles for the event in their collaborative guise as Devoid of Yesterday with HECQ providing the aural treatment. Here’s a little sneak peek at what that’ll be … Chris Hewitt described it as “Hans Zimmer meets Tony Scott on acid.” Sounds good to me!
Justin Cone and Orion Tait are also going to be speaking on Sunday in a Motion Graphics Panel Discussion with Psyop, Stardust, Tronic and Simon Robson. See you there!

Some images from the PSST! title sequences that I designed were published in Neo-Geo: a new book out now by Die Gestalten Verlag. I just got mine in the mail! “NeoGeo documents the new flirtation with geometrical forms and solid colours in today’s design.” Some really amazing and beautiful work in there by the likes of Espaun, Lifelong Friendship Society, Mario Hugo, Steven Harrington and many many more.
Some more images after the jump …
