THREE DAYS. Jesus. My mind was blown.)

Seriously, miki you are very very lucky. John Warwicker is one of the most interesting people i know, i would really like the chance to meet him one day.. i like the interview he did that is on the onyx pearls tomato dvd.

Having said that, im a little suprised that you would think that skyscraper took anything more than 3 days to make.... it is quite random, chopped up and it doesnt look like the kind of thing that was planned and created with a vision... the notes in there seem like things collected over time, underworld talk in the making..

Nevertheless it is a unique masterpiece, and takes pride of place in my collection...

Haha. It's probably because I've tried doing some typographic-type stuff in Photoshop, and never managed to get it looking anywhere near as great. The design's a bit messy, sure, but that's what makes it so compelling - it feels deliberate, like they're trying to emulate the visually-busy nature of the city, and it looks beautiful, not like it was a rush job at all!

how Tomato worked overall

which appears to work like this: aNt and co just sit with their adidases on desks and chuck stuff together 10 minutes before the deadline - typical creatives!!!
