Six Symbols

I made this Flash graphic from some common visual memes:

Circle, triangle, square, two lines, two arrows.

I used Illustrator, then Flash to acheive maximum abstraction, an approach to japanese calligraphy.

It evolved from this drawing:

Recognize it? Record, play, stop, pause, back, forward... like a CD or a tape player. I chose them because they are common ways that I access memory, and this is a site to help me learn and teach.

The symbols have come to represent six philosophies in my life.

Do more, play music, draw pictures, write fast, back to work, and travel forward.

This site is my ongoing experiment in aethetics and design. I encourage feedback, and have much more to say, but my main message is this: Whatever you do, do more!
