microcalligraphy – ou… aquela sensação UAU!

julho 8th, 2009 Posted in Design na veia, mkt

Wikipedia tells:  ”Micrography, also called microcalligraphy, is a Jewish art form developed in the 9th century, with parallels in Christianity and Islam, utilizing minute Hebrew letters to form representational, geometric and abstract designs. Colored micrography is especially distinctive because these rare artworks are customarily rendered in black and white.”

em suma, técnica extremamente foda que muita gente usa e causa inveja na geral… certo mano?

    Este individuo posee el correo electrónico anterior es para empañar la imagen del Che Guevara, no sé cómo tratar de ponerlo en su lugar, estoy enviando este mensaje a todos los que, como tengo en el Che un símbolo de lucha y dedicación a sus sueños, no esperes que nadie me siga, pero tan pronto como puedo enviar mensajes a ese hijo de puta poner en su lugar, él dice q la gente q idolatran al Che son idiotas y esas cosas … Parecía ser un fan del Hitler, dijo todo lo que oiga Miércoles aqlo era falso, era ya un mentira.Desde gracias todos.Atenciosamente; Tatiana Campos.gellblue@hotmail.com
