Benoit Paillé -> Light Experimentation

I find these ‘Light Experimentations’ taken in northern Quebec to be very well captured and inspirational. Coming from a photographer who states “I hate landscape”, Benoit Paillé tries to create his own by modifying the environment with light. More beyond the link.

Chaos Crew -> The Tattooed Poster

Notes from Site:

“In a celebration of some of 2011′s most newsworthy events, Munich’s Chaos Crew Tattoo Studio created a massive poster that shows the true art of tattooing by using a large piece of calfskin. By using the skin instead of creating an image and transferring the work to paper, the integrity of the original [...]

Mobile Photos -> Personal Musings

It’s been a while since I’ve shamelessly posted any of my own personal musings and photo experiments. My mobile photo updates are now part of my weekly routine on tumblr, wether it was a conscious decision or not, I’ll never know. It’s fun. Lately, I’m getting a kick out of flipping my images, a simple trick, [...]

IKEA UPPLEVA -> Smart TV & Sound System

5 years from now we’ll be saying “remember when all of our home electronics had cables sprawling all over the place?”. Nice to see IKEA taking the lead on this.

Notes from YouTube Page:

“IKEA introduces UPPLEVA, a completely new range that integrates smart TV and sound system with furniture. UPPLEVA brings beauty and functionality to the [...]

Jogja Hip Hop Foundation -> Intel

This beautifully shot documentary by executive creative director Richard Gordecky, sponsored by Intel, captures the Jogja Hip Hop Foundation (Indonesia). Stunning visuals and positive messages throughout. Definitely worth 7 minutes of your time.

Leica -> Rumors Black and White M10

This is all very exciting. Rumors are flying that suggest Leica will be releasing an M10 version to their digital camera lineup that shoots exclusively black and white. Yes, no color photos coming from this camera body, just super detailed black and white photos rendered from a real black and white sensor. The other interesting [...]

Sentosa || -> The story of the Merlion

This short story by illustrator and motion graphic designer Lydia Lee is pretty fresh. The lighting, motion design and rendering style really make it stand out. Definitely worth a view, be sure to have a look at her nice type design examples as well in her portfolio.

Christopher Payne -> Photography

New York based photographer Christopher Payne places the focus of his work on the documentation of America’s vanishing architecture and industrial landscape. I very much enjoy his ‘Asylum’ series (Asylum: Inside the Closed World of State Mental Hospitals (MIT Press, 2009)) from his portfolio site, capturing unkempt interiors and the remnants of things left behind. [...]

Things Organized Neatly -> Tumblr

This is a fun Tumblr blog appropriately named ‘Things Organized Neatly’, perfect for fellow OCD’ers out there who obsess over clean lines and clarity of arrangement, balance and relationship. On a good day my desk, coffee table and the floor of my closet resemble some of these finely tuned arrangements of stuff. Have a look.

Martin Klimas -> Porcelain Figurines

These amazingly precise photos by German photographer Martin Klimas are absolutely brilliant to take in. Dropped from 3 meters, the porcelain figures are captured in mid explosion creating an effect that is rarely seen by the human eye in such detail. Super inspiring to those who love and appreciate sophisticated photography technique. Spotted -> @catoosha!

Aurora 2012 -> Christian Mülhauser

Aurora 2012 from Christian Mülhauser on Vimeo.

I have to admit, there have been so many brilliant photos and videos of the northern lights lately that I have kind of become a bit desensitized to them. However, this well captured footage by Christian Mülhauser is a good one to check out. Side note: the music is [...]

PRIME Burger -> thismustbetheplace

PRIME from thismustbetheplace on Vimeo.

This beautifully captured short documentary left me feeling bit home sick for NYC, and also a lot hungry for a good ol’ fashioned burger. Well worth the view.

Notes from Vimeo:

“Prime Burger Restaurant, in Midtown Manhattan. For many of the guys that work here, the restaurant is like a second home – [...]

Simon Harsent -> Iceberg Portraits

Photographer Simon Harsent’s thought provoking ‘Melt’ series of iceberg portraits fascinate me. At first glance they feel powerful and have a sense of permanence, but then those feelings are soon replaced by a darker reality, making them seem dismal and fragile. Aside all of that, they are amazingly captured and processed. Be sure to have [...]

Android -> Digital Standards

It’s not easy for companies to keep track of their brand presentation across all the platforms, screens and devices that exist these days. Especially when you’re in the app space, and you have hundreds of third party app designers and developers out there creating new experiences specifically for your device. How do you keep it [...]

Seattle 2012 -> Snowstorm Photos

I haven’t had a lot of free time to post this week. I’ve been shoveling snow and taking photos of all the wild weather that we’ve been experiencing here in the Pacific NW. I’ve got a bunch of photos that I will be processing and posting over the next few days, and another good night [...]
