Joy

I enjoy passing time on these pointless little online digital “toys”. Release your own “Unknown Pleasures” and recreate your own version of the iconic Joy Division album cover. Thanks Garrett Finucane. Click here to get scribbling.

Andreas Levers

Stunning images from German Andreas Levers. The air seems so crisp in these images, inspires me to get up for an early morning walk. Melbourne in Autumn can be much like this.

Lucha Libre

Minimal, colourful and almost clumsy in design, but yet very awesome and full of impact – Lucha Libre magazine covers from the 70’s. Found at Flashbak.

Sublime Indeed

An exhibition I would have dearly loved to attend. Retro NASA photographs showing at Breese Little Gallery in London. During late 2014 – just missed it. No doubt the large format photographic prints capture the awe somewhat better than these little jpg’s. Found at It’s Nice That

Ornitographies

I was blown away by these images. Stunning observations of flight by Xavi Bou of Barcelona brought about from a lifetime love of nature and birds. Like long exposures that reveal something unseen – beautiful stuff Xavi, well done indeed. More information and images can be found at his website.

Bjork in VR

Last month I was lucky enough to visit Carriageworks in Sydney to see the Bjork Digital exhibition. I have seen quite a few VR demos in my time, but this was by far the most impressive. The experience involved being part of a small group, which was then lead through the 5 unique spaces, 4 […]

Mediated Matter Group

Stunning video from the Mediated Matter Group. As per their website, “our focus is on Nature-inspired Design and Design-inspired Nature”. At the cutting edge of where human meets computer, it appears that we may not even recognise our future interfaces as anything but “natural”. Sort of spooky and exciting all at the same time. Digital, […]

Nanyang PS

Imagine going to school here – colourful times ahead. This must help produce more creative, open minded, well rounded, intuitive kids. Maybe not, maybe they get over all that colour and turn goth. Probably not. I think this is awesome. The world needs more colour. Found at Architizer.

Velocipedia

Great project by Gianluca Gimini from Italy. After sourcing a number of sketches from both friends and strangers, 3D models and final renders were developed as accurately as possible, major flaws and all. The resulting bikes look quite fantastical, futuristic, although most likely unridable.

Mark Mothersbaugh

Did you know that Devo co-founder Mark Mothersbaugh designed and sold a series of eye popping art rugs back in 2009. He did. I did not know. They are very dynamic. I like them. Too nice to wipe your feet on – these are rugs for the wall. You can see the full collection here.
