Web Designer Magazine: Digital Mazey Interview

See some great samples of my designs and read my interview in Web Designer Magazine Issue 198 - on sale now!

In the meantime, here's a taster...

What came first: the spider or the web?

To grow our empires we need to start thinking about the shift from fixed websites to the apps, iPads and multi-faceted web services of the future.

"Web services?" I hear you cry. For those of you who don't know, future technology buffs are already working on making your lives easier by moving your desktop programmes into the cloud (ahem, aka online).

So, to set the scene, you take the long laborious commute to work, and damn, you forgot to hand in that article for your 9am-or-die deadline.

What do you do?

Well, at the moment, if you haven't got that document on your laptop/phone/iPad etc, then, quite frankly, you may find the return journey home comes sooner than you expected (and I don't mean a good-will-gesture 'half-day').

"It's how we've always coped, so what's different?" You might add...

Sooner rather than later, people are going to be able to access all their programmes from the cloud (and it's already happening!). Imagine, turning on your computers and hey presto what have we got ourselves? Only an easier lifestyle full of stress-free document accessibility!

So, let's embrace this new world of technology. There's only a few years left before we can start rambling "it wasn't like that in my day..."

Digital Mazey - Art Direction & Photography

As promised I upload the images I created for The Songmen. The chaps had a new recruit and once again called on me to help them create some smashing new photos with a conceptual twist. As vocal perfection is at the heart of their music-making I suggested going for an ironic touch by covering their mouths with extra strong tape. Thus preventing them from using the tool they are best known for and allowing their audience to see another side of the boys. They loved the idea and from this was born a series of playful photos to accompany their biographies on their new website.
