Tim Mantoani's Studio

This image brings back so many memories. Now, I don't use the Gretag Macbeth SpectroLino SpectroScan XY scanning spectrophotometer, today I use the iO table but for years this was my instrument of choice.

Then I also used the Powerbook G4 Titanium, which was my first high end laptop.

Moving to encompus.com/blog

Over the next month I will be transferring from Blogger to our newly designed blog. Access the new Blog here. I have really enjoyed using Blogger. It's very easy to use and maintain, however our needs have changed and we are moving to WordPress. I have had colorcritical up and running since 2003 and in that time it has been stable and easy to use and update. Thanks Blogger! I invite you to check out
the new blog where the design has been updated. Here is to new beginnings!

Colorworks AIGA Event


Colorworks AIGA Event
Originally uploaded by colorcritical
I will be speaking about color management and the web at the COLORWORKS AIGA event 9am - 4pm at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice at USD on Saturday February 23, 2008.

The event will feature Leatrice Eiseman, Color Guru at Pantone as well as Paul Wharton of Larsen. The event centers around color theory, branding, and color forecasting as well as my technical discussion on Color Management and the Wild Wild Web.

If you have free time come down, I am sure it will be a great event and you will feel the energy that surrounds color and it's meaning and communication.

See you there!

Color Control Freak 08


Color Control Freaks
Originally uploaded by colorcritical
It was freezing cold in Grand Rapids this last week. I have never been so cold. But then again, I am used to San Diego weather where if it rains for more than a few centimeters it makes major news.

I meet with fellow color freaks Mark Gundlach and Phil Nelson. We went over the new 08 seminar materials and I must say I am excited to present this years content. It's a little different than years past with some added material from Pantone.

The one day seminar is sponsored by X-Rite, HP, Pantone, and Eizo. With updated content and easy going approach to color, Color Control Freak 08 will surely be interesting. I will be speaking in Minneapolis, Kansas City, Portland, Denver, Dallas, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and Houston.
