I made an influence map!

I'd never heard of influence maps until a few weeks ago, but thanks to Harveyjames I realize what a great exercise this is. Really made me think about what inspires me artistically.

Basically you make a grid of however many squares and fill them with images of things that influence and inspire you. Use more squares/larger images for bigger influences!

Here's my list (with links if you're curious)!
1. Milton Glaser
2. Seymour Chwast
3. Otl Aicher
4. Peter Max
5. Heinz Edelmann
6. Parra
7. Katsuhiro Otomo
8. NES graphics
9. Network Osaka
10. Kevin Dart
11. 80s blank VHS covers
12. The Zonders
13. Olly Moss
14. Fez
15. NIntendo Power
16. Atari commercials
17. So-Me
18. Futurecop!

And I can't forget Studio 4c (even though I did).

  1. Nice influence map!!! I like the Olly Moss design you selected, I'd not seen that one before. Now, after seeing the So-Me graphic, I feel compelled to listen to Uffie.
