You viewed all the work, thanks! Also, don't forget to fasten your seat-belt while driving. Safety, dah.
ABOUT
½ 8 is an online gallery maintained by Anton Sokolov. Mostly artworks, available in hi-res for download & print, free of charge. If you want to pay an attribution just hang it on your wall. I do appreciate it.
Also, music that I post ~2 times a year. Ambient, raw, yet to feature vocals. Likes, comments → soundcloud. Some tracks end up as video clips.
To learn more about my approach listen to the talk about the Poster Project I gave in 2020 (get a cup of coffee, it's 1 h long).
CURRENT
Beside my personal art, I provide design direction and product management for the next generation of JetBrains apps. Currently, I work on the chat-centric platform for software development teams called Space and the untitled cloud-based IDE.
If you are interested in building software together with us, apply for an open position or internship through the careers page.
BACKGROUND
Prior to JetBrains I was leading design teams at Wrike ²⁰¹⁵⁻²⁰¹⁶, Veeam ²⁰¹⁴⁻²⁰¹⁵ and was a partner in logistic startup VeeRoute ²⁰¹⁶⁻²⁰¹⁹. The entire national postal service of Kazakhstan runs on VeeRoute’s platform since 2018.
Before I got into IT, I spent 5 years as a graphic designer and before that as an architectural visualizer. Since then I have been passionate about 3D. And more recently, I've been studying Japanese. Both aspects are paramount in the visual style of my work.
CONTACTS
