Posse Spotting: Eindhoven, Holland
Spotted at a a hardcore/punk CD stand at the Persistence Festival in Eindhoven, Holland. This is the pattern we’ve seen before here and also as a cat-friendly tablecloth during Jon’s American Summer. Fashionable scarves and punk rock vending, it’s all posse-approved.
Framed Beer Matts
Doodlesplatter posse member, Amir, sent in these great snaps of his beer matts. I love the concept of framing something as “disposable” as coasters. Amir got the Burgerman beer matts at Broadway Cinema and had them framed at Paramount Picture Framing in the UK. Writes Amir:
I assumed broadway and paramount picture framing were in collaboration for this event. Since I haven’t seen anyone else doing this online, it makes me wonder if I was the only one who did it. Imagine that.
Nice job!
Music Sales Rug
I am stupid -jealous of this rug Jon designed for Music Sales. The whimsical floor covering matches nicely with the muradoodle he did there this summer. More practical textiles, please! Shower curtains?
Autographed Aladdin Mugs
A day late, but hopefully not a dollar short. For a minimum $10 donation at this week’s New York International Gift Fair, you can pick up a mug autographed by Jon from the Aladdin Booth (#3170). Apparently, Jon did live painting here on Sunday. Who knew?! Aladdin makes sustainable mugs:
The stylish 16oz Mug is made with eCycle®, a durable, FDA-compliant 100% recycled and recyclable plastic with a 25% post-consumer content and recycled packaging. It is 100% recyclable where [5] plastic is collected, so it can be fed back into the resource loop (cradle-to-cradle). It is easy to disassemble for rapid recycling, reuse and repurpose. The Mug features double wall insulation and a closing drink-through lid, fits car cup holders, and is microwave and dishwasher safe.
Thanks to Jim of Gift & Home Today for the tip and the scans!
Deadgood Doodle Chair
Deadgood has revealed a sneak preview of an exciting furniture design project with Jon that will officially launch at 100% Design this September:
Defined by a dynamic use of colour and a unique graphic energy, Burgerman’s distinctive doodle scrawls have been screen printed and encapsulated within a resin imrpegnated craft core, overlaid with melamine and subsequently pressed at high temperatures to create a highly durable surfacing material.
Deadgood “strives to create objects that are both beautiful and unique” and from the looks of it, they have succeeded with this. I can’t wait to see more.
Broadway Cinema Beermats
Broadway Cinema launched its own ale, called Reel Ale, and to celebrate, they asked Jon to design some special beermats. One beermat (aka coaster) was available each week for four weeks. When bar patrons collect all four, they combine “to create an insight into [Jon’s] Broadway Cinema-going experience.”
Writes Jon:
For the last ten years I’ve been a regular at the great independent cinema, in the centre of Nottingham. I can’t even remember all the films I’ve seen there, but notable visits included viewing Cube, Funny Games, Cache, The Blair Witch Project, Rushmore, Pi, Dogville, Shortbus and a documentary about birds. I’ve consumed a fair amount of sweet popcorn, the odd ice-cream and since they’ve officially allowed it, many pints of beer in there.
If you were a coaster-completist, you’d also have Jon’s set of beermats for Propaganda.
Posca Pen Packs
If Michael Phelps can be a spokesman for Speedo, it’s long overdue for Jon Burgerman to collaborate with Posca. So in collaboration with their most shining star and advocate, Posca produced limited edition pen packs with Jon’s artwork and stickers inside. The packs contain six extra-fine bullet tip pens in black, white, red and hard-to-find metallic silver and gold. Pack size is approx 140×90x10mm. The Posca pen packs are available in select shops in the UK and through Jon’s webshop here for £9 UK or £11 non-UK.
Doodled Cushion
Remember Steve’s sermon on the uselessness of pillows on Coupling? If your girlfriend insists on couch cushions, make a case for this one by Jon for NINETEENSEVENTYTHREE. It measures 500 x 500mm and is digitally printed onto 100% cotton. The doodles are a blue and grey colorway for £40.00 per cushion.
Custom Sofa
Jon customized sofas as part of Tiger Translate in Beijing. The sofas were used on stage that Saturday, and also feature the doodles of Jeremyville, Luke Bennett, Ben Frost, Li Qiu Qiu, Song Yang and Nie Jun.
Octane3 Magnet Set
Jon contributed a design to the third set of magnet triptychs exclusive to Octane3. Each pack consists of 3 different magnets (Set 1: Shawnimals/Peskimo/Lunartik; Set 2: TADO/Hicalorie/Sket One; Set 3: Jon Burgerman/Kenn Munk/MAD). Each 58mm disc is produced on flexi-magnet material and can be stuck on your fridge, radiator or maybe even your car. The magnets come housed in a translucent wallet and limited to 100 sets each. The sets are still available at Octane3 here for £4.99.
