I really dig this new digital audio interface called Emulator 1.5, designed for Traktor 2. The ‘tronish lightscreen’ interface feels super clean and something of a circa 1980s sci-fi throwback. In a very good way. I’m usually not a fan of too many interface colors competing for a user’s attention, but this execution demands it, [...]

Yet another magically innovative example of archetectural video mapping, created by with 2D video composition software and 3D modeling software. The amazing motion graphics were projected with a 20k video beamer at 1920×1080 at the Kernel Festival in Northern Italy (Brianza to be exact). Very much worth the view. I’d love to check out this festival.

I recently discovered the amazing photography of John “Chip” Scarlett, an award-winning underwater still photographer and certified diver of 45 years. His photographs offer a rare view into the underworld, and in many cases, in a way that transcends the documentary style of photography and very much becomes that of fine art. So much amazing [...]

As Google continues to expand as a company, I expect to see more and more innovative ‘risks’ emerge from within the walls of their empire. Google is now asking us “What do you love?”… Not quite as fancy as the Google ‘art project’ that came out earlier this year, but just as interesting from a [...]

Al Gore’s new iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch app looks to be nicely designed by UI designer Mike Matas, co-founder of Push Pop Press, and is certainly getting a ton of positive attention this week. The ‘Our Choice’ app is being praised as the “the future of interactive books” by some highly accredited experts. I’ll be [...]

Being a long time fan of Amsterdam based influential music and lifestyle blogger Nalden, I’m pretty excited to try out his new super-slick iPad app. Just a few months ago he was soliciting for a talented experience designer to help him build out his dream app, now it seems that it’s come to fruition in a [...]

This is a very interesting and futuristic eCommerce touch interface concept for use as a way to bridge the gap from an in-store experience to an online sales experience. The design was created by a Swedish mobile production company called B-Reel and the product is called ‘TRE’. I think the interface, as ‘minority report’ as it [...]

This, to me, is very exciting on many levels. Above are screen grabs from 360cities.net, a site that I have posted about a few times before because I find it to be a really innovative space to discover 360 panoramic photos. What makes this image of the Strahov library in Prague so special, is the [...]

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 [...]

Ever wonder what the world would look like if we could actually see all of the invisible WiFi signals and other forms of digital connectivity right before our eyes? This is an interesting attempt at doing just that. More information is available about the project via the links [...]

QuaDror from Dror on Vimeo.
World renowned designer Dror Benshetrit spent four years developing the innovative structural joint above called QuaDror. The design is not only strong, supporting up to 86 QuaDrors on top of itself, it’s also incredibly compact and able to be flat shipped from place of development to place of assembly, saving valuable [...]

There have been a few corporate sponsored attempts in the last couple of years to build up a navigable global collection of graffiti and urban art in general. The first one that I took notice of was a mobile experience created by Adidas called ‘Urban Art Guide’, that experience was followed by a similar experience by Nike [...]

History of Gaming from Florian Smolka on Vimeo.
Ahh, this video brings back so many memories doesn’t it? Especially the earlier bit, not to expose my age or anything. This clever video was made by university “Game Design” students from Munich as a video project. I like the overall simplicity and the subtle humor of the hand gestures. [...]

Tableau: physical email from John Kestner on Vimeo.
Notes from Vimeo:
“Tableau is an refinished heirloom nightstand that stores and retrieves memories using a Twitter account. It acts as a bridge between users of physical and digital media, taking the best parts of both. The nightstand quietly drops photos it sees on its Twitter feed into its [...]
