tom wesselman x herb lubalin. so glad i stumbled on this today [ via boicozine ]. i've been in the vicious cycle of looking at 'current/modern' graphic work for days now and it's nice to refresh the vintage.
inspired,

AMAZING. Still.
Uhm....i just kept taking notes!
- the set
- the fashion
- the colors
- the sound
- the camera
- the microphone
- the backup singers
- his voice
- their dance
- the goddamn flute.
it's kinda crazy ridiculous.

What a Legacy.
Russian inventor Léon Theremin created (invented) the world's first electronic instrument almost a century ago. its sound is eeeerie and immensely emotional.
physically, its quite a looker. what's even cooler than its familiar sound is how you play it - its as if it came back from the future.
i netflixed "Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey". dude had an amazing life - check it out. veddy interesting.
