SCANNERDOT.COM 2.0
STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT / SITE REFRESH
London-based composer/multimedia artist Robin Rimbaud, aka Scanner was gracious enough to invite Day For Night to enhance his informational site Scannerdot.com. This latest update emphasises a forensics approach to design production! (And most importantly, making the site mobile device-friendly!)
Our long-term development strategy is to aim for the ultimate; providing a comprehensive e-Commerce page, further improving all shopping and downloading options, developing an exhaustive discography providing fan access to all matter of rich Scanner releases and downloadable media as possible, and by restoring a thirteen-year old archive of newsletters, which reveals a fascinatingly autobiographical track-back to the history of the international sound arts scene since 1994, viewed from the perspective of one of electronic music's prime movers, collaborators, and orchestrators.
For such a diverse recording and performance artist, this represents still but a small portion of Scanner's recorded artistic achievement, as we also for the first time embedded Robin's Flickr photo gallery – to show the world what a wonderful eye the man has behind a lomo or iPhone quad camera!
Experience the strikingly dark beauty of Scanner’s musical and personal work here: >> Visit Scannerdot.com

As frontman for the legendary Tijuana Brass, Alpert rose up the charts during the 1960s with over 15 top-ten hits; many of their singles and albums pushing the Beatles out of the #1 spot. With business partner Jerry Moss, he created the legendary A&M Records; leading the artist-as-label-owner movement in independent music.
Designed in joint association with Jim Kelley Design Group, this site represents three key dimensions of Herb Alpert, through his Music, his visual Art – Alpert is an accomplished sculptor and painter – and his Life. Full project credits >> >> http://www.herbalpert.com

SALVADOR DALEK. “BIRTH.” DAY 035
COMPACT DISC
“Birth”(Day 035) is the nascent studio outing of ambient
and progressive cinematica artists Salvador
Dalek. Not to be confused with its wiser, elder sibling Julie Android,

Born June 2001 as a live remix identity of Eric
Scott and Pete Moraites, this moniker is the one they have used since their first association,
through the collaborative projects they have created following Tomato Workshops NYC,
where they first chose recording and remixing as an outlet away
from other professional activities in the fields of multimedia.
UCare.tv is a socially responsible news, entertainment and resources network for individuals, non-profit organizations and philanthropic funders. Grounded in the belief that "When UCare you make a difference," the network allows members to help raise sustainable funds for the non-profit organizations and causes they support and to access free resources to improve their lives, their communities and the world.

ANDREW LAKEY "ANGEL MAGIC 108"
BOOK DESIGN
Artist Andrew Lakey's following in Japan has been nothing short of fanatical since the early 1990s – and this miniature exhibition catalogue was produced before his Tokyo exhibition in December 2007, in association with JMA / Lightworks (Japan) and Crave Media Publishing (Japan).
"Angel Magic 108" is an oracle pairing original Lakey paintings with thematic virtues (Patience, Beauty, Tolerance...) and extends well beyond the angel artwork Lakey is commercially known for, spanning works from the last decade of Unencountered, Silhouettes and Shadows, Hearts and early abstract works.
The book is available for purchase online at this link: Order Info >>

ERIC SCOTT. “MY NATURE”
MP3
Many thanks again to all of those who sent in their votes of support and encouragement on our submission of "My Nature" by Eric Scott, for the 2007 American Idol Songwriting Competition.
A jangling love song with a hooky chorus, "My Nature" is far less the kind of stuff AI finales are made of (because, let's face it – it’s not a power-ballad) – but easily sounds more at home with its 80s and 90s Britpop influences...
