Just when I thought I’d seen fonts made out of pretty much everything, along comes this piece by typographers Pierre & Damien/plmd.me and a professional driver Stef van Campenhoudt who have collaborated [...]

Bela Borsodi -> Still Life Typography

Bela Borsodi takes everyday fashion pieces e.g., ties, shoes, belts, sunglasses… you name it, and assembles them in ways that brings them to life and tells a story. These typographic still life images were created for WAD Magazine’s “Dictionary” Issue. They are endlessly entertaining to the eye and I’ve found that the more you study [...]

iMated -> Fun iPhone App

My mad scientists friends over at Minneapolis based agency SevnthSin have taken the phrase “there’s an app for that” to a whole new, slightly disturbing level by creating an iPhone app that will mate you and your best BFFs with just a few simple taps and limited necessary contact. Take a pic of yourself, then [...]

Giant Gundam is Alive -> Odaiba, Tokyo

Photos from -> Pinktentacle.com

I have been following the construction of this Giant Gundam statue in Odaiba, Tokyo via-Pinktentacle, BouncingRedBall and a few other great blogs that cover interesting happenings in Japan. This week it was announced that he’s finally completed and I must say he looks amazing from the pictures. Gundam stands a towering [...]

Home -> Yann Arthus-Bertrand

‘Home’ is a non-profit film directed by Paris born Yann Arthus-Bertrand. This brief window of free viewing on YouTube is sponsored by PPR. ‘Home’ reminds us all of just how important it has become that we change our ways when it comes to our growing population and our energy needs. Not only is the [...]

the Beatles Rockband -> Intro Animation Jamie Hewlett

This animated intro for The Beatles Rockband video game was created by English comic book artist and designer Jamie Hewlett (best known for his work on the Gorillaz). His classic, bold illustration style compliments the Beatles perfectly in my opinion. The elongated figures capture the character of the fab four in a youthful fresh way. [...]

UpNext 3D NYC -> iPhone App

Combine a 3d Google Earth-esque map with a navigate by building digital directory and you have the above UpNext 3D NYC iPhone map app. Once you have located the bar or restaurant that you plan to hang out at you can send a tweet with your GPS location to all your “tweeps”. This app is [...]

Death Cab for Cutie -> Little Bribes

Death Cab for Cutie – Little Bribes from Ross Ching on Vimeo.

This video is full of great eye-candy -> city lights, stop motion, light painting, M&Ms dancing wildly… all to a peppy track from a great band (Death Cab for Cutie). It’s all happening. Definitely worth a view or two.

Side note: it sounds like Ross [...]

Shoe Mashup -> Nike SB Stefan Janoski

Nike will be releasing the the above color/design SB Stephan Jonaski shoe this fall/winter 2009-10 to the public. I’m a big fan of these shoes already, I think it’s because I’m a big fan of the three classic designs that may have inspired it’s design. My Theory is the -> classic Vans Slip-On, classic [...]

The Analog Heaven Northeast Meeting is an annual gathering of synth heads and analogue freaks from around the world. The primary motivation for this event is to collaborate and display their rare and obscure synth equipment. Think of it as a classic car show for super geeky musicians. [...]

Camera Ratings/Reviews -> Flickr

Many of you (especially those who use Flickr) may already be aware of Flickr’s camera ratings/reviews but for those of you who are not Flickr users this may be useful information.

In the past couple of months I’ve had a few of my friends ask me about my pictures that post from my Flickr account to [...]

1951 R.O. Harrison Bicycle -> New Star Cycles Madison track frame

This amazingly young/fresh looking track bicycle actually dates back to 1951. Originally the 1951 R.O. Harrison Bicycle was designed as a lightweight track bike intended for use on grass, cement or steeply banked tracks. This bicycle also features “like new” period components -> crankset (built by a British company that is no longer in existence [...]

World’s First Shakable Ad? -> by Medialets

Yes, some are claiming this Dockers iPhone app as being the first “shakeable” ad, I’m not sure if I agree with them on that idea. However, It definitely comes off as more of an “ad” amongst some of the softer hitting accelerometer/GPS ad apps that I have seen out there. I wonder how long [...]

Hobnox -> Amazing In-Browser Audiotool (beta)

This in-browser audio tool is going to quickly soak up what little spare time I have left in my life for sure. I’m almost a bit upset that I found it. It’s an Adobe Flash powered audio web app with thousands of possibilities packed in. Hobnox has also built a blog, video channel and social [...]
