Dutch Artist Gives New, or Old, Meaning to 'Notebook' With Video

by Ian Rowan on April 28, 2009 at 04:28 PM



Earlier today, we stumbled upon Evelien Lohbeck's animations via PSFK.com and found them to be right up our alley. Shunning the whole netbook craze, the recent Academy of Arts, St. Joost graduate has turned to her trusty artist's notebook to sketch her own Windows XP interface, YouTube channel, and Xerox machine -- all in one. Something tells us that her version of XP doesn't crash.

With a degree in animation, Lohbeck blurs the boundaries between drawing, the digital, and the real; her notebook can make toast and cheese, show her reflection, produce candle light, and play the opening refrain of the White Stripes' 'Seven Nation Army' on a drawn guitar. If only our drawings of stick-figure ninjas could come to life. [From: EvelienLohbeck.com, Via: PSFK.com]
