Jawbone is releasing an exciting and innovative new health tracking device and mobile app. It’s reminiscent of the NIKE/Apple partnership but not attached to an expensive shoe, and not specific to one activity, opening the door to a much larger customer base. You can now toss your old heart rate monitor and pedometer and that [...]

Aurora Borealis in Finnish Lapland 2011 from Flatlight Films on Vimeo. Amazing, and well worth the view. Notes from Vimeo: “This is selection of northern lights we filmed during the winter 2011 in several locations in the Finnish Lapland. It’s filmed with DSLR cameras with timelapse technique and with remote pan/tilt heads.” Visit -> flatlightfilms.com Visit -> http://www.flickr.com/photos/flatlight/ Visit -> facebook.com/flatlightfilms Notes from Vimeo page: “Midnight Sun: A natural phenomenon occurring in the summer months north of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic Circle where the sun never fully sets and remains visible 24 hours a day. This short time lapse film was shot during the Icelandic Midnight Sun in June of 2011. For 17 days I [...] Fun With Sphero from GoSphero on Vimeo. Not much else to say, other than this Sphero thing is rad, and I think it will be as big as the Rubic’s Cube (or at least it should be in my opinion). Such a great concept and design! I ♥ Sphero! Notes from Vimeo: “Sphero is the world’s first robotic [...] Above, are two of my favorite old photos of the young, passionate, genius and relentless Steve Jobs. The second photo, with a young Bill Gates seated next to him, has blown my mind from the first day that I laid eyes on it. To me, it is amazingly revealing and says so much about the [...] A friend of mine (thnx! @catoosha) recently turned me on to the Oregon Manifest collaborative utility bicycle design contest. What a great venue to bring together some of the most innovative and accomplished design minds in the business. The results are pretty inspiring and impressive. Notes from website: “The Oregon Manifest Constructor’s Design Challenge is a one-of-a-kind design/build competition, [...] I decided to check in on visual.ly this week to see how the community was coming along. Turns out, very well. There are a ton of new updates since my last visit, and some really quality stuff too. For those that love infographics do yourself a favor and pay them a visit. Visit -> http://visual.ly/ Older post -> http://circuitbreaks.com This is pretty interesting, that is, if you’re like me and many others who are actually slightly moved by reminiscing around the old gui graphics of web browsers past. From Netscape to Chrome, this interactive infographic allows us to rediscover those old browsers that we all criticized, cursed at and at times even celebrated. Yes, we [...] Compressed 02 from Kim Pimmel on Vimeo. This is a pretty incredible experimental video coming from Kim Pimmel. I’m struck by the geometry that is revealed as the ferrofluid travels the microscopic seams of each bubble. Nicely done. Notes from Vimeo: “I combined everyday soap bubbles with exotic ferrofluid liquid to create an eerie tale, using macro lenses [...] 8 Hours in Brooklyn from Next Level Pictures on Vimeo. Nice capture and edit coming from Next Level Pictures. Very much worth the view. Notes from Vimeo: “All footage was shot within an 8 hour span in Brooklyn, NYC. Several of these shots will be used in part w/ a series of spots we are directing/producing which will [...] I love the branding and design work around Amsterdam based innovation and creativity festival PICNIC (September 14th – 16th). Everything from the poster to the site experience is buttoned-up and feels nice and fresh. I wish I were able to attend it this year, the lineup of speakers is pretty amazing. Be sure to have [...] Digital Alphabet in Stone – Dom Hans van der Laan/Autobahn 2011 from autobahn on Vimeo. This is an interesting and rare view into the art of transferring type from the digital medium to stone. Makes for a fun view for those who enjoy great type and amazing old world skills. Visit -> www.autobahn.nl Slow Magic // Corvette Cassette from Feel Good Lost on Vimeo. This video by director and editor Brendan Canty is a very nice example of color filtering, compositing and kaleidoscopic effects. The amped up music track was produced by Slowmagic. Visit -> http://www.feelgoodlost.me/ This is definitely one of the more ambitious and disruptive installation art pieces that I’ve come across in a long while. Apparently, it was created and documented some time ago in 1993, but it’s been floating around on Tumblr blogs a bit lately because of it’s timely on-trend aesthetic. Here’s the overall project description from the Behance page: “Luminous [...] |
