Abandoned Projects #1
Train Drawings 2008-2010.
As a way of interacting with the perceived invariableness of my daily commute, I began a series of "automatic" drawings that were dictated by the ebb and flow of my train ride.
Reason for abandonment: I came across the work of William Anastasi.
Odds of revival: 10:1

Dragon Tattoo Poster?
Being designed by the amazing Neil Kellerhouse, who is, for my money, THE best movie poster designer working today (not that it would take that much to design a poster better than the usual Hollywood high octane blandness). Mr Kellerhouse far exceeds.
NOTE: Upon further investigation, this may or may not be final poster art. It was originally posted on the movies "unofficial" Tumblr site. Apparently there's been some issues with the movie poster. No more gossip on this from me.
Speaking of Dragon Tattoo, New ish of Design Bureau has, what sounds like, an interesting interview with Peter Mendelsund.

First idea, worst idea?
I occasionally use post-it notes to jot down very rough thumbnails. They make a size that has nearly the exact same proportions as a book cover. I then either stick them above my computer, hand them off to a designer or throw them out. Looking through some of these from the last couple years made me realize how few of them actually make it through to final. Part of it must be the book cover kill rate, but I also think I might be using this process as a way to get the bad ideas out of the way, though for the life of me I have no idea what projects half of these are for.
