Instagr/am/bient: Stop, Collaborate and Listen
January 20, 2012 | No Comments | View
One of many lessons to be learned from hip-hop (or Kenny Rogers) is that it’s hard to beat a solid collaboration. For us that goes exponential when you make it cross-media, with bonus points if there’s an iPhone involved. So you can imagine what happened when we got ahold of Instagr/am/bient: 25 Sonic Postcards – the [...]

Drawing an Excellent Conclusion
November 18, 2011 | No Comments | View
The coolest thing we saw all week just so happens to be a great way to start the weekend, and makes us think that Vimeo et al should work a slo-mo button in somewhere: Keep Drawing is a fantastic short from Korean Studio Shelter about drawing – using many, many differently styled drawings to illustrate the depth, [...]

How’s this for fresh? Koreans can now shop and buy groceries with their smartphones while waiting for the subway. Tesco Homeplus (with the help of their smart agency Cheil) has placed large-format graphics in Select South Korean subway stations that look like aisles of groceries. Each item on the ‘shopping wall’ is matched with [...]

Pac-Man Fever (Slight Return)
April 21, 2011 | No Comments | View
Some things just never get old. Sometimes it’s because they’re timeless, other times it’s because they get rebirthed regularly. In the case of Pac-Man, it just might be both. There is a lot to be said for the original Pac-Man, his ladyfriend, and offspring. And there’s a lot to be said about the latest reincarnation [...]
Out There Thinking: Generative Photography
April 7, 2011 | No Comments | View
It’s always a good idea to be surveying and sampling the nooks and edges of the landscapes that get your engine revving, whether that be personal or professional. You never know what your going to find – and just as importantly, you never know what new thoughts and ideas you’ll have as a result of [...]

The power of a natural disaster reaches even further and deeper than the lands and lives in its immediate scope. The news last night and today of the Pacific earthquake and tsunami hits those of us out of harm’s way square in our hearts and minds with new speed and clarity. With this or any [...]
It’s a beautiful day to make some music

In our neck of the woods it’s the warmest, sunniest, most beautiful afternoon we’ve seen out of 2011. Music’s in the air, as they say. It’s also in the binary ether and on our blog. Until the whistle blows a little bit later, you can sit right where you are and make sweet-sounding music to [...]

Have something to share? Sweet. DIY yourself. Get it out there, and we’ll all check it out. Sounds simple and no-big-dealish, unless you might’ve [...]

Take a Ride on the YouTube Time Machine
January 6, 2011 | No Comments | View
Starting out fresh and refreshed for 2011, we’d like wish you a very happy new year–and decade, for that matter. As it is at every beginning of a new year (or 10-pack of new years), there’s just as much looking back as there is forward. Actually, probably more looking back, since there’s way more to [...]
