Oh my goodness. So, the DC Design Babes are having their 2nd event tonight at Fly Lounge. It’s a Munny Sketch party, where everyone gets a chance to show off their design skills in an off medium kind of way. If you’re not sure what a Munny is, I’m sure you’re not alone.
When Valli from DC Design Babes told us they were throwing a Munny Party we were confused, perplexed, baffled, and even maybe a bit befuddled. What is a Munny? Is it pronounced Moony or Money? And once, knowing what it is, we still had to ask why does this thing exist?!? Then we were given one as a substitute for Mac software – at some point I swear I will listen to the Mac maniacs – and try it again. And oh my goodness did we had fun. In ode to the DC Design Babes we knew we wanted to incorporate their logo somehow, but we loved the big ball of a head that looked like it just needed a little ev on it. So the ev|dcdb Munny was born.
Notice, what we believe, are three very critical design aspects. One) The ev is a little off kilter. This is because ev|dcdb is cool. It’s like wearing a hat slightly off to one side that exudes: “I’m not trying to look like I’m the freshest thing in the room, I just am”. Two) The dcdb is right above the tail. If Munny’s had pants like some girls wear with “Sexy” or “Hot Stuff” painted squarely on their bum, this is exactly how it would look. Which is also cool, in an “I’m not being sexual, but I am” sort of way. This also kind of embodies the name DC Design Babes, which we love! Third) ev|dcdb’s body is made of stone, because well, (s)he rocks.
Anyways, we are looking forward to seeing everyone at the DC Design Babes DCDB2 event tonight! Looking through the guest list it looks like it should be a good turnout, including some of the DC Tech luminaries such as Peter Corbett of iStrategyLabs, Frank Gruber of AOL that runs Tech Cocktails, and Edward Frederick of Living Social. The judges were also announced: Chris Bishop, Graham Jackson an artist for X that also does the loda posters, and Supon. See ya tonight!
