Loving these light photographs.
Disturb Me
“Disturb Me” is an interactive installation by The Popcorn Makers. It is activated and modified by the sounds of it’s surroundings and participants.
Homeless Sims
With ‘The Sims 3′ released just the other day, Technology blog Techcrunch have an interesting interview with Rob Burkinshaw, a game designer who created an experiment called Alice and Kev, which essentially tries to simulate homelessness in The Sims.
The results are quite astounding as you will find, and it is this quote that has stuck with me from the Alice and Kev website:
“What does it mean when a character you’ve created makes you re-examine your own life through their astonishing selflessness?”
Qlocktwo
Holy hell, this is the sexiest clock I’ve ever seen. Qlocktwo tells the time in a human readable format and looks mighty fine while it’s doing it.
Maxwell Holyoke-Hirsch
Beautiful illustration from New York artist Maxwell Holyoke-Hirsch. You can see more (along with other great illustration) at blow your horn hunter where Maxwell is a regular contributor.
Das Monk
Well, there I was the other day, minding my own business, wandering around Glebe Markets when I stumbled across Das Monk who have some of the freshest tee designs I’ve seen in a long time.
E15
E15 is a research project by MIT which will attempt to allow you (as the user) to visualise web content in any way that you see fit. This can be accomplished in a few ways, either by providing a visual hierarchy to the elements which form a web page, in a three dimensional space or by rendering these items through an image processing engine to create a visual of the site. Looks really interesting, can’t wait for a public release.
Dollar ReDe$ign Project
With the US dollar tanking, why not inject some interest into it by re-designing. The dollar rede$ign project intends to do just that by inviting users to submit their idea of what the dollar should look like. There are some silly ideas, but there are also some really well designed gems.
