I solved some technical issues in the new website of Rombout Oomen, a visual artist in Amsterdam. The website was designed by Pittig.

Three new FREE esc.rec. releases!
Three high quality free esc.rec. mp3 releases especially for you! Just in before the end of the year:
slo-fi – ‘s loot (esc.rec.17)
Yoshimi! – II aka The Cheshire Rat (esc.rec.18)
Toxic Chicken – Make My Day (esc.rec.19)
Thank you slo-fi, Yoshimi! and Toxic Chicken for doing such a good job (again) and for providing these superb releases for free! I designed the cover of slo-fi’s loot. Oh, and of course I designed three new (or renewed) esc.rec. microsites to go with the releases:
www.escrec.com/slo-fi
www.escrec.com/yoshimi
www.escrec.com/toxic-chicken
I guess esc.rec.‘s New Year’s resolution for 2008 will be to offer more free mp3 releases like this. I will try to focus more on a better balance between limited (cd-r) releases with unique artwork, ‘regular’ cd-r releases, online sales (which don’t exist yet for esc.rec. releases), free releases and maybe some ‘specials’ for my esc.rec. subscribers.
Anyway, hope all keeps going well for esc.rec. in 2008! And the very best wishes to you ofcourse!

KunstGoud website finished
Here it is. The new KunstGoud website. The previous one was the online documentation of visual artist and goldsmith Jeannette Knigge. But now KunstGoud is her brand new goldsmith studio, shop and gallery in the historical centre of Deventer. Jeannette started Kunstgoud together with Ingrid de Rapper, a former student of Jeannette’s goldsmith course.
Graphic design for KunstGoud was brilliantly performed by Eva Blaak/DEBOKOFHETLOKET. I built the KunstGoud website largely based on her graphic design. With a searchable database, easy CMS and RSS it turned out to be a pretty full featured website, while maintaining a very clean, clutterfree design. I also took a shot at photography on this one. All photo’s on www.kunstgoud.nl were made by me.
KunstGoud is to open on the 11th of December this year and I’m currently also designing and building their display cabinets. They are going to be great, but are still a long way from being finished. So I have some busy times ahead. Starting December 1, you’re more then welcome to take a look overhere.

Linksopdebus.nl
Linksopdebus.nl is a small website. Or in fact, it’s nothing more than a small collection of links… or no wait, please let me explain…
‘Links op de bus’ can be translated as ‘links on the van’, but in Dutch it also reads as ‘on the left-side of the van’. I just had to find out how this combination of clever advertising and silly word joke would work in reality. That’s why I now drive around with ‘linksopdebus.nl’ on the left side of my van. All the links on linksopdebus.nl are directly related to the users of the van.
Update: I’m looking into advertising possibilities of linksopdebus.nl, because of Jeroen Diepenmaat‘s enthousiastic response…
Update 2: It is now possible to advertise on linksopdebus.nl.
