ZHKKH-ART book
This book is about Russian sociocultural
phenomenon named ZHKKH-ART (housing and utilities art). I was wondering,
is ZHKKH-ART actually an art movement or it's just a sociocultural phenomenon
that only sociologists, urban anthropologists, culturologists need to investigate?
In this visual research i found the answer on this question.

PET PLANT - fertilizer for house plants

fans of #urbanjungle culture. They rent

That's why plants for them are substitute for pets.
The brand concept: fertilizer for pet plants like food for pet animals.
THE DEATH OF TYPOGRAPHY
Variable fonts are an extension to the
OpenType specification, introduced on 14 September 2016 which will essentially
change future of fonts. And perhaps it will lead to the death of typography.
I have researched this question, imagined a mix of a Helvetica and the Comic Sans,
was terrified and have made this video.

MATEMOJI
This sketch is about modern digital world.
Hero of this video doesn’t have free time to go to the countryside on a weekend.
And he found some Matemoji (mate + emoji) bot on the internet which helps
him to see countryside beauty with AR technologies. This video is brutal-glitch
styled for digital-detox aftertaste.
