CURRICULUM VITAE “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.� - Leonardo da Vinci
Living in Johannesburg on a strict diet of coffee and clean design and I am Alexander Bosman and I am an Interactive Multimedia Designer. I have freelanced for numerous clients, where my work included web design and print media, while studying since 2010. My core strength lies in visual design but I can more than tackle UX design and Web based projects. I feel I have a true and natural sense of design, creating simple and effective work with pixel precision.

In an era of havoc and mayhem, political theft and false patriotism, a cadre of highly technicians abandon skilled the sinking ship of state to bring the word to the streets.

Flooding minds and airwaves with pollutants while grudgingly distributing real hip hop in tainted and dwindling doses. Determinedto derail this morbid status quo, Typical Cats risk the charge of treason to form an undergroundcivil service to freely circulate raw music to the masses. No agenda to push, no president to answer to, no plastic capsules, no commercial breaks.
