Walking in your mind -> Ithaca Audio

Walking in your mind (live mashup) from Ithaca Audio on Vimeo.

It’s amazing what has become possible with live audiovisual sampling. Monome, tonematrix and tenori-on sampling devices have really evolved over that last few years. Fun stuff to keep an eye on.

Facebook Timeline -> First impressions

I’ve got to say, things were looking pretty grim for ol’ Facebook when Google+ rolled out. G+ seemed to offer up some pretty nice enhancements to the social networking space with ‘circles’ and being able to follow non-friends, similar to Twitter. For me though, it lacked in the area of visual presentation, other than the [...]

What do you Love? -> Google

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 [...]

The Burning House -> Shared Collections

Let’s face it, people love their stuff and they love to document and show off that stuff. This Tumblr blog asks one simple question, “If your house was burning, what would you take with you?”. Nice concept, it will be fun to see what people share as time goes by.

Nalden -> iPad app

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 [...]

Turin Brakes Video - Philip Bloom -> Plastic Bullet Filter

Turin Brakes: Ascension Day from Philip Bloom on Vimeo.

I thought this was interesting… World renowned film director and photographer/blogger, Philip Bloom, just released this music video that he shot with a Panasonic AF-101. The interesting part to me, is that he used the Plastic Bullet photo/video filter software made by Red Giant Software to add [...]

Mtv Music Meter -> Social Powered Chart

It’s been a while since I’ve seen anything interesting from Mtv but this is pretty nice. It’s a top 100 music chart that is purely fed from social buzz, which is cool because it’s less about corporate hype and more about what people are actually digging. The design is simple, dynamic and shareable. I wonder [...]

Super Slow Motion [Water] -> Rickard Bengtsson

More Super Slow Motion [Water] – 550D from Rickard Bengtsson on Vimeo.

One of the more amazing capabilities that affordable digital video has brought to us is super-slow motion via super-high frame rate captures. Rickard Bengtsson has spent some time playing with puddles, sand pits and various human acrobatics… all captured at frame rates as high [...]

Digital Life -> Digital Consumer Data Visualization

Research and marketing analytics firm TNS Global created the above pictured data visualization tool called ‘Digital Life’. They have interviewed tens of thousands of consumers world-wide in order to research and study their daily web-use in the hope of providing corporations and businesses with helpful information and guidance in today’s unpredictable market. The design alone is worth [...]

Sevnthsin -> Distance Makes No Difference

My buddy Jamey Erickson is always up to something interesting and fun. Whether launching weather balloons to take pictures of the outer stratosphere, prepping for his next outrageous Halloween costume (I’ll spare you the visuals) or just coming up with interesting ways to make his Minneapolis based design studio Sevnthsin an inspiring place to work… he’s bubbling [...]

Poolga iPhone App -> Michael Paukner Illustration

I guess this has turned out to be a two-part post… One part, to bring attention to a new iPhone/Pad/Touch app called Poolga, that is a great source for illustration and designed wallpapers. Really nice works from some very talented designers and artists can be downloaded through the Poolga app right to your device. The [...]

Consollection.de -> Video Game Console Archive

I came across designer Patrick Molnar’s video game console archive site called ‘Consollection.de’ and thought it was pretty fun, simply designed and interesting. Not only does it reveal a bunch of gaming systems that I had no idea existed, it also gives us a nice eye shot of console industrial design trends over the past [...]

Lego -> Augmented Reality Packaging

I’ve seen a lot of silly uses for AR lately, probably because of the relentless urge for many companies to embrace the technology because of it’s ‘cool factor’ and to be considered ‘bleeding edge’. The problem is, if you don’t think it through, the experience is at risk of falling flat or just being really [...]

Store Front Roof Tops -> MOM & POPism NYC

The wonderfully classic/retro NYC store front has been taken to new heights recently as Gawker Artists have come together to produce this amazing rooftop exhibit called Mom & Popism. Seen above, the near-life size photos have been mounted to the walls of the rooftop and then enhanced by the graffiti work of a few select [...]
