RGB for the Home
For the Milan Design Week, Italian studio Carnovsky created a series of wallpapers that react to different coloured lights. Brilliant idea, for that really cool home.
Info Graphic Contest
Another design-it-for-us-so-that-we-can-publish-it contest. When will these things stop? While I applaud the work the designers have done, maybe Good should have chosen one person and paid them. Great work, for a much needed explanation, for a lousy cause. Good

It's Home
Less advertising, or Music Video, though it does qualify as both, more of a feature film. Leo Burnett, Sydney, Australia.
Monday Pun
Not a new feature, and our sincere apologies. However, this did catch me off guard and made me smile. Buy it here.

Drop the Beat
Gravité from Renaud Hallée on Vimeo.
Literally. Both posts today have a see-beyond-the-obvious quality today. Might just be the rainy weather, but I'm finding comfort in the new-ness of the ideas and the possibility in exploring.

Graffiti Analysis
Graffiti Analysis 2.0: Digital Blackbook from Evan Roth on Vimeo.
This is beautiful and highly impressive.
Graffiti Analysis is an extensive ongoing study in the motion of graffiti. Custom software designed for graffiti writers creates visualizations of the often unseen motion involved in the creation of a tag. Motion data is recorded, analyzed and archived in a free and open database, 000000book.com, where writers can share analytical representations of their hand styles.

The Juicer
In The Know: Should More Americans Get In On The EZ-Go Juicer Craze?
Love this commentary on news networks from the even more pseudo news network, The Onion.

We Are Here: The Pale Blue Dot from dmahr on Vimeo.
As you get caught up in the deadlines and the must haves of your day, we offer a little perspective. In the words of Carl Sagan, "Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark." Storytelling at its best.

5 Directors, 1 Script
Five directors (Greg Fay, Johnny Hardstaff, Carl Erik Rinsch, Jake Scott and Hi-Sim) were given five lines of script and given license. This is what they produced for Phillips to emphasis the manufacturers cinematic qualities. All the films are viewable in hi-def at philips.com/cinema.

Wonderfully Simple
Wonderfully Ornate
Not usually a fan of the too much, however, the typography on the cover (can you really call that since it is only about 10% of the illustration) sucked me in. The use of elements and the care to put them together is so intricate that this would have to be a really great (if not hard) read. The use of gold is inspired. "I Wonder" book design by Marian Bantje, due to hit stores in time for the holiday season 2010 (pub date September 28th).

Nike
When a brand is confident about it's place in the world, it is willing to make the judgement calls that allow it to connect with its audience. Love the spot for Nike. Love the idea. Even love the willingness to put its highly paid spokespeople in place to pull it off. A bit of a departure for a brand who is almost always serious.
