M&S 2012 Favorites: Longreads!

We had a terrific but terrifically busy 2012, so we’re still digesting all the brilliant work—articles, books, music—released last year.  And it seemed like a nice idea, even if it’s a little late, to share some of the best stuff we stumbled across.

Please enjoy our list of long-form writing lovingly assembled by our in-house designer and list-maker, Roque Strew, after the jump.

Ignacio Torres - Stellar

This project began from the theory that humans are made of cosmic matter as a result of a stars death. I created imagery that showcased this cosmic birth through the use of dust and reflective confetti to create galaxies. The models organic bodily expressions as they are frozen in time between the particles suggest their celestial creation. In addition, space and time is heightened by the use of three-dimensional animated gifs. Their movement serves as a visual metaphor to the spatial link we share with stars as well as their separateness through time.
