Design & Development: Inklude.com The Book Surgeon Using knives, tweezers and surgical tools, Brian Dettmer carves one page at a time. Nothing inside the out-of-date encyclopedias, medical journals, illustration books, or dictionaries is relocated or implanted, only removed. Dettmer manipulates the pages and spines to form the shape of his sculptures. He also folds, bends, rolls, and stacks multiple books to create completely original sculptural forms. "My work is a collaboration with the existing material and its past creators and the completed pieces expose new relationships of the book’s internal elements exactly where they have been since their original conception," he says. "The richness and depth of the book is universally respected yet often undiscovered as the monopoly of the form and relevance of the information fades over time. Dettmer is originally from Chicago, where he studied at Columbia College. Update: Read our exclusive interview with the Book Surgeon here. Brian Dettmer's website

Doodleacademy, un canal de vídeos para aprender a dibujar Dibujar es un arte que muchos llevan en la sangre desde que nacieron, aunque, como en la mayoría de los casos, requiere de entrenamiento constante para mantener los “motores en marcha” constantemente. Existen muchos canales en Youtube creados para ayudar a dibujar, aunque pocos me han llamado tanto la atención como éste que os presento hoy: Doodle Academy. Se trata de una colección constantemente actualizada de vídeos que nos ayudan a dibujar animales de todo tipo con un paso a paso que muchos agradecerán.
