Is this the best week ever? Maybe it’s just the recent bout of spring sunshine (finally!) talking, or maybe it’s all the totally awesome projects that have gone live this week. Below are a few of my favorites.

Making Faces: Metal Type in the 21st Century — by, Richard Kelger

A documentary on the late Jim Rimmer, who was one of the only designers to create and fabricate fonts in both metal and digital formats. I love the devotion to the process that Rimmer displays — and how convincingly it is captured by filmmaker Richard Kegler. Truly fascinating stuff! And how cool is it that one of the rewards is an unreleased font by Rimmer?

Viral Linquistics Music and Drawings Notebook Collaboration — by, Aaron Meyer

I love good collaborations, and this combination art’n’music project from artist Heather Kai Smith and experimental-folk musician Honeybear fits the ticket perfectly. Ten bucks gets you a 40 page sketchbook filled with Heather’s original work and two download codes for an EP of Honeybear’s music — one for you, one for a friend! Don’t know about you, but I’ve dropped ten bucks on causes far less worthy (cab rides when I’m late for important meetings…cough cough).

Stored Potential: Repurposing a Giant Grain Elevator — by, Anne Trumble

Anne Trumble wants to cover an abandoned grain elevator in Omaha with interesting and educational art about land use, agriculture, and food. She’s inviting 16 different artists to create each of the pieces, and then plans to celebrate with a huge dinner party (all food locally sourced!) at the feet of the gargantuan structure. To me, this is very, very cool. Also, one of the rewards is “Corn in the Mail” — really!

The Promise Keepers — by, Riley Michael Parker

Two quick, totally guaranteed ways to my heart: describe yourself as “daring, satirical, and beyond over-the-top” and cite John Waters as a primary influence. The Promise Keepers wins on both counts! This feature-length film follows a polygamist family as they “kidnap, slash, and dance their way through 85 minutes of the most shocking and jaw-dropping scenes you are likely to see in a narrative film.” Yes. Please.
