Candy Magazine issue number seven is out! This time around we’ve got the Girlpower Shopping Issue. In case you’re not familiar with it already, Candy is a free PDF magazine covering a range of different artists, designers and design related stuff. Go and check it now at Candyculture!
inPRNT! is a brand new fine art repro service who’ll deliver great prints right to your door. There’s some great stuff on there by independent artists and it doubles as a community site, since anyone can apply to have their art reproduced. I especially like the work of Joy Ang (Terrorsel by Joy Ang featured above).
two create are a London based design duo who do some great work in both two and three dimensions. Check out the ‘Poise’ candle holder for a good example of a utilitarian type object given a unique, yet functional form.
Packet Garden analyses your network traffic and creates a virtual world for you to explore. As it’s name suggests, by analyzing the packets sent and received by your computer as you surf the Internet, a unique garden is created. You can download it for free from the official site.
In a similar vein to our previous posts on large scale art/tech (Graffiti Research Lab & Textual Healing) – Project Blinkenlights is a new take, actually using the buildings as a light source instead of simply projecting images onto them. These images weren’t static either, as members of the Chaos Computer Club (the group behind Project Blinkenlights) and members of the general public were able to play games of pong on a huge scale!
