Designer, Timothy Goodman, came with an awesome typographic illustration that shows exactly what he learned about the election. Listing a total of ten, Goodman really tickles our funny bones with a few of them.

Lord of the Masks.
Much like the character, Jack Merridew, in the classic book, Lord of the Flies, humans being escape rather easily once they are wearing a mask or some facial covering of some kind. Artist, Jozef Mrva, plays with that very concept in his ongoing series of mask made from cardboard. Mrva plans to expand the project with a stage performance, musical performance …
Birthday.
Artist, Anders Krisár, creates an odd pairing with the two sculptures being presented today. Titled, The Birth of Us (Boy) and The Birth of Us (Girl), the sculptures are both made from acrylic paint on polyester resin, fiberglass, oil paint, screw eye, steel wire, and wire lock.

Voting is a serious matter …
Ode to the Interwebs.
Artist, Caroline Walp, has created a satirically sarcastic series titled, The Best Thing That Has Ever Happened to Me. What is that “best thing”? It’s the fucking internet, bro! Using digital prints and letterpress prints, Walp’s series is a collection of outrage statements that are conveyed with deadpan delivery. Our favorite: “when I die, spread my ashes across the internet…” …
Happiness in Light.
It has only been a day and nearly 97% of the world’s panties have dropped over Mumford and Sons’ new visuals for their single, “Lover of the Light”–their latest album, Babel.
