Make. Construct. Do. - Quote 2010-02-02T16:56:01-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/r_buckminster_fuller/ You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete. - Quote 2009-04-27T14:44:00-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/whatthefont/ Thank god. I’ve been needing something like this forever. Ok, just like three years. - Link 2009-02-11T21:15:00-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/the_places_we_live/ No words… - Link 2009-01-27T22:52:01-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/the_new_muxtape/ Justin is testing the new Muxtape.  Looks like a hosted solution for bands and simple pages.  I love the look, not quite as much as the first muxtape but the same simplicity is nice.  Wait and see I suppose but it doesn’t seem as striking or useful as the original.  He really had something special with that original. - Link 2009-01-27T19:37:00-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/been_a_long_time_coming/ My brother, Tyler and I have been fortunate enough to have been in business for ourselves three and a half years now. Considering that we bought our first laptop with the money from our first job, you could say with confidence that we are bootstrappers. We’ve done almost as much learning as working since 2005. Having no educational background in design has made it especially challenging and rewarding for me. I was a blank slate and have been able to mold my own education. And after three good years capped by a stellar year in 2008 I can definitely say there is no place I’d rather be and nothing I’d rather do.  Which brings me to the point of this post. We have a new website for the business! We’ve had the opportunity to work on some amazing projects and have grown as designers more than I’d imagined possible over the course of the last two years. Yes, that’s how long it’s been since we’ve updated our website. I’m excited about our new site, the people we’ve worked with and the projects we’ve worked on. Check out the new Blackbrush site and drop us a line. - Article 2009-01-23T15:59:00-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/layer_tennis/ The Coudal created design match is back.  The competition in the fall of 2007 was stellar.  Can’t wait for this to start.  You can still see some of the old matches but they are much better live.  Tune in.  - Link 2009-01-23T15:56:00-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/tracking_obamas_campaign_promises/ We should have one of these for every candidate. Not that I’d hold it against them if they don’t follow through, change their mind, or discover some better solution to a problem.  But I’d like to know about it. - Link 2009-01-22T21:13:00-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/openstreetmap/ Great free tool to create vector street level maps. - Link 2009-01-20T15:31:00-08:00 http://travisfleck.com/entries/just_my_type/ Free interesting typefaces from designer Jakob Nylund of Formconspiracy.
