But after what you've said I'm not sure if I should watch it ;-) Yes, Sagmeister is more of an Art Director, than a designer. He himself admits that he lacks a computer knowledge, but compensates it with having others to do the job and implement his ideas. hmm… and I haven’t seen The Machinist.

Emo artist. Most of his stuff is good, but he seems to be more of an artist than a designer. I don't think I've ever gone through the kind of "angst and pain" he is talking about. It's a job, not life! He does have some interesting concepts, though. I liked the billboard with the faded letters done on newspaper. I haven't seen Momento, but I know the concept of the movie. It's similar to The Machinist (an indy film) with Christian Bale, which I have seen. There were parts of that movie, though, that I just couldn't stand. I was thinking exactly what Joey said.

Not sure about that. Btw, it's worth watching <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memento_%28film%29" rel="nofollow">Memento</a> if you enjoy following some mind-boggling situations.

That's what Sagmeister's body carving project reminded me when I first read about it. :-) Joey, have you seen that movie Memento, where the main character, suffering from amnesia, keeps notes on his own body in a form of tattoos so he doesn’t forget about them?

I can't imagine a graphic designer from little ole East Texas doing something like carving the design into their body. They might shave the design into the side of a cow though.
