- From Wikipedia: The many meanings of Constructivism Across graphic design, teaching, philosophy and many others…
- Flash do-it-yourself Constructivist Compositionals This is really nice – flash posters in a Constructivist style that are covered in structures of colours and shapes that a user can turn off and on at will – it’s like a structure for art rather than an art-work in itself.
- Video for Franz Ferdinand’s “This Fire” Still with the Constructivist theme – this new video from Franz Ferdinand manages to merge Constructivist poster art with comic books, megalomania, infographics and 80s Synth Pop style. Awesome.
- Radio 4 on Microsoft PowerPoint and the Decline of Civilisation (Real Audio) “Part of a controlling tendency of modern life – taking things that are long, complex and serious and turning them into something simple and trivial.” I think to an extent this is bunk – but the representative from Microsoft doesn’t do them any favours.
