Creating a New Yorker Cover On the iPhone
Jaime Leifer writes "The cover of the June 1, 2009, issue of The New Yorker, entitled 'Finger Painting,' was drawn by Jorge Colombo entirely on his iPhone — a first for the magazine. Colombo, a New York-based artist and illustrator, uses the iPhone's Brushes application to vibrantly depict New York street scenes." There's a video recapitulating the creation of the piece, omitting all of the undos.
a group of 30 4 year olds using a magnetic refrigerator alphabet wrote all the features and articles in the same magazine. In un-related news the New Yorker seems to be having financial problems as fewer and fewer people read the garbage they publish.
errr....umm...*whooosh* *whoosh* Is this thing on ?
Is a man not entitled to his own computer? "No!" says the man in Washington, "It belongs to the poor." "No!" says the man in the Vatican, "It belongs to God." "No!" says the man in Moscow, "It belongs to everyone." I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose ... Apple.
FTA: "Before, unless I had a flashlight or a miner's hat, I could not draw in the dark."
Apple, thank you for finally enabling us artists to draw in the dark. Only Apple could pioneer this astounding technology.
How ironic that TFA has a flash video that does not work on the iPhone. I'm sure there's a youtube version out there somewhere but I'm too lazy to look.
I forgot something in my response?
