Icon Bronco -> Cool Hunting Vid

Yes, another 4×4 post… I’ve posted many times about the magical custom rehab 4×4 establishment that is Icon, based in L.A. The folks at Cool Huntind created a nice little spot on their amazing Bronco design. Did you know that the grill design on some of the Icon trucks was assisted by Nike? More detail [...]

Camel Trophy -> 20 best images

The photos above are my favorite selects from a great collection of photos that can be found on expeditionportal.com. The Camel Trophy, often called ”the Olympics of 4×4″ first began with the 1980 crossing of the Transamazonica highway. For off-road expedition enthusiasts, it’s a great batch of photography. The full set of twenty can be seen beyond [...]

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, [...]

Society6.com -> JHSINDESIGN

This past week I decided to check out the Society6 artist’s community/storefront. I have been shopping around for an online print and frame service for some of my photography anyway, so I decided, why not try a service that also connects artists together, similar to how the Blurb DIY book service does? So far, I [...]

Elian Cycles -> Keeping it Simple Since '05

Spring is in the air… and when that happens I’m usually thinking about bicycles and bicycle related projects. While browsing some new sites the other evening I came across this Holland based bicycle design shop called Elian Cycles. I like their montra of ‘keeping it simple’, their frames seem to have some interesting geometry going [...]

Wide Angle & Macro Lens Adapter -> Photojojo

I love toys, especially toys that enhance the toys that I already have. Photojojo just added a wide angle and macro lens adapter for SLR cameras to their photo-centric product line. Seems like a nice way to get some extra miles out of that old lens you’re getting a little tired of.

iPhone 3Gs Photos -> Jhsindesign Posterous

A couple months ago I started up a ‘posterous’ blog and have been using it as an easy mobile upload platform for all my iPhone photos. I’m snapping daily and I’m often surprised at the image quality I’m getting from my iPhone, depending on the light and my ability to keep my hand steady (or [...]

Rubikon2 -> Papercut Pin-hole Camera

The above paper cut-out pin-hole camera design called ‘Rubikon2′ is available here as a nicely designed and detailed 7 page .pdf to download and build for free. Designed by Jaroslav Juřica, the camera folds up to be 98 x 70 x 68 mm and can take some pretty impressive textured shots as seen on his [...]

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 [...]

Powder Mountain HD -> Northern Utah

Powder Mountain Perspective from Ian Provo on Vimeo.

It’s February already, and as expected I have started to see 09 footage created by the fortunate souls of the world (the Ski Bums) start to pop up on Youtube and Vimeo. My Ski Bum phase was during my college years. Unfortunately, these days I rarely get out [...]

Velo Fever – Prep for Spring

It’s no secret that winter months in Minnesota are long and harsh. Going on my fifth year here, I have started to figure out a few ways to mentally cope with the realities of the relentless sub-zero climate. A few mental outlets that come to mind: planning a vacation, starting new projects (which [...]

Robot love – nerdy collectibles

I have been collecting robots and alien figurines for about ten years now. Everything from the old robot erasers from when I was a kid, to big beautiful retro tin robots. I have a box under my bed that contains about fifty alien figurines that used to be lined up across my mantle in my [...]
