Mimiyo Tomozawa

Mimiyo Tomozawa is big in the underground Japanese comic world, but is probably best known by people like me for designing a couple of album covers for Jim O’Rourke. I think her work is hilarious. Some equally strange music from her band Dokidoki can be found here.

ISO50 + Obama

03 May, 2008

iso50_obama.jpg

Scott Hansen (aka ISO50) has been asked to produce the next Barack Obama poster. He is the 2nd artist, after Shepard Fairey, who’s been asked to participate in designing for the Obama campaign. Pretty good tactic I’d say, to stir up even more young votes.

They’re producing a limited run of 5000, at $70 per poster… nice handy sum of $350k. Look for it on the ISO50 site and at the Obama store in coming weeks.
