Four Lions

This looks simply brilliant (and controversial)!



Four Lions tells the story of a group of British jihadists who push their abstract dreams of glory to the breaking point. As the wheels fly off, and their competing ideologies clash, what emerges is an emotionally engaging (and entirely plausible) farce. In a storm of razor-sharp verbal jousting and large-scale set pieces, Four Lions is a comic tour de force; it shows that—while terrorism is about ideology—it can also be about idiots.

Based on three years of research and meetings with everyone from imams to ex-mujahedeen—not to mention a wealth of surveillance material from major trials, Four Lions plunges beyond seeing these young men as unfathomably alien or evil. Instead, it portrays them as human beings, who, as we all know, are innately ridiculous.

Notter + Vigne

I originally came across the work of Geneva based design duet Notter + Vigne after seeing their awesome Lovecraft Poster (I think on FFFFOUND!). Any ways, delving a little deeper they have some great work on their site.

Grafikcache Is No More

Not sure of the reasons why, but such a shame to lose one of the better design blogs out there. RIP Grafikcache.

Grafikcache

The parting message from Dave Smith:

The Grafikcache has indeed come to an end but a few have asked that I leave the Grafikcache up as an archive.
