Blast from the Past

I was trawling the interwebz having a look at different styles for a little bit of inspiration, where I came upon a website containing a bunch of nifty little infographics - a style of design I had completely taken for granted. Take this awesome space exploration infograph for instance!

Suddenly I was reminded (with no pun intended) of my favourite video clip from one of my favourite bands, "Remind Me (Someone Else's Remix)" by Royksopp. I really like the insight into the almost monotonous daily workings of an office worker, and I simply adore the quirky infographics spanning from alarm clock function to the process of milking cows, from percentages of fast food consumption during office lunch to train networks and more. Seems MTV Europe loved it too - it won Best Video in the 2002 MTV Europe Music Awards. Check it out!
