Following our series of Pixelmator tutorials, this week we will show you how to create an abstract wallpaper using the Quartz Composer filters. Even though the effect seems a bit complex, you will be surprise how easy is to create it in Pixelmator. It won't take you more than 10 minutes to reproduce this tutorial. And to make you really keen on doing that we will give away 2 copies of Pixelmator.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Jeff Huang and featured on the Abduzeedo Book. Jeff is a freelance art director and illustrator based in New York who specializes in Creative Design, Abstract Art, Photo Editing, and 3D. He has been working professionally for more than 6 years now and has produced work for many companies and publications worldwide.

The book of this week is a book I just got from a friend. It was in my wish list for a long time. The book is called Visual Complexity: Mapping Patterns of Information and as the reviews says, it's about our ability to generate information now far exceeds our capacity to understand it.
