unity of ideas
“It is the act of unfocusing your mind and inducing an inner fog to escape the responsibility of judgment—on the unstated premise that a thing will not exist if only you refuse to identify it, that A will not be A so long as you do not pronounce the verdict ‘It is.’ Non-thinking is an act of annihilation, a wish to negate existence, an attempt to wipe out reality. But existence...
updates
Small changes to the site. There is now a side column with a site description that I created. In there you’ll find links to find my work on Flickr, Behance (when I finally get to that) and profiles elsewhere on the internet. I also included some links to go to other things that I like, as well as a link to Kent State University’s website for my major and a clickable link to quickly...

Muxtape →
This website is created a photographer and web designer that I posted about already named Justin Ouellette. He created an online service to keep the concept of the mixtape alive and well online called Muxtape. Using it is amazingly simple, register with your email, upload songs, send your link to everyone you know. Pretty cool stuff, the link to mine is on the right. I figure it has a great...
MATERIA (Part 3)
Finally finish the PDF booklet that accompanies the MATERIA Wine packing project that I have been working on for my Intro to 3D class for quite some time now. It feels good to finally have it completed, it was becoming a larger project that I had anticipated every day that I was working on it. I feel very at peace with my color palette, typographic system and how the design speaks what I wanted...

DVNO →
If any of you have heard of it yet, the new video by Justice is amazing. DVNO takes the lyrics from the song and uses them as series of animated logos taken from old corporate spot logos. Machine Molle, the motion graphics and design group from (also from France), were the ones who made it. Check out their site, and the video there under the “Music Videos” section.
Or if you are a...

MATERIA (Part 2)
My product packing project is nearly over (read more here: http://thejameson.com/post/27722354). I have the form completed, the design is done and now I’ve applied my color theme to the project and based it off of the label that I had printed at OfficeMax for the bottle itself. I’ll be posting the project once I finish it, but this is the wine bottle’s (mostly) complete label...

Fruit/Veggie Spot
I know some of you seemed to get a kick out of the Zombie Kiwi from the other day and have been asking me about the project that I am doing it for. Its called the “Fruit Spot” (or vegetables… produce really). Our goal is to make a 6”x6” frame of reference and illustrate various fruits in chromatic greys, muted colors, and then a combination of those and prime colors...

GRAHHH (2)
Here is the second version of the Kiwi Monster. That was an awkward day in class, I showed up with this, while everyone else had these still life type things going on. Weird. I’ve refined it since then though, toned it down a little and made the monster part a little more secret instead of in your face. I’m still having fun though, so I guess thats what matters. I had never known...

tada!
I killed thejameson.com awhile ago due to lack of interest (as well as waste of money and never finishing anything I started). Most of you that went there saw that it had basically been the same intro page for… well… ever. So I finally ended up using something and building from this blog’s internets spaces to bring it together with thejameson.com and make it into one thing! You...
MATERIA
For my Intro to 3D Design class, we were given a lot of freedom in regards to our current project. The problem to solve, is to create a creative package to an already existing product. I chose wine bottles as my subject, as wine has become a recent interest of mine. Instead of choosing a company that already exists, I decided to create a new company from scratch and use this opportunity to...
