    RIP - Todd Baldwin - Graphic Designer of DC Party Fliers

    Sad news - his fliers were some of the very best Buzz fliers...along with his other artwork like the covers for DJ Dan and Dieselboy comps... Breakbeat Science logo - soooooo much great designs - truly horrid he gave up on life and hung himself

    His website is

    Todd Baldwin, passed away on Friday, July 22, 2005. Todd, aka: "Pigeon" has been one of the most talented, influential, and by far the most admired graphic designer's of his time living in Washington, DC.

    Graduating with a BFA in Design from the Virginia Commonwealth University, Todd went on to be a co-founder of Airline Industries - whom have achieved notable works for clients such as: Breakbeat Science, Astralwerks, Burton Snowboards, Methods NYC, Lint, DJ Dieselboy, Buzz, Discovery Channel, Magnet Interactive, Blue Room, Gazuza, Gua-Rapo, and countless others. Todd's work has appeared in many publications and his current solo work was launched under the company name, Pigeonhole Graphic Design.

    Todd designed the DC PULSE cover of Issue #02, The Renaissance Issue, and has a featured interview with his work in the print and web version as well. Todd also conducted a great interview with local artist and author, Sandy Granzow, who happens to be Spike Jonze's mother. Todd's selfless help and countless hours towards contributing to DCP has set an example for us all. His passion and pride in his work speaks for itself!

                Damn that sucks. I always hate to see talent go wasted like that. Perhaps he should have just moved to somewhere else to get away from what it was that was bothering him so much. Sometimes you just have to relocate to get rid of the past...People wise.
