FFFFOUND!



I love searching for images and FFFFOUND! is super addicting. "FFFFOUND! is a web service that not only allows the users to post and share their favorite images found on the web, but also dynamically recommends each user's tastes and interests for an inspirational image-bookmarking experience!!"...I wish I could join but it's invite only. The only chance I have is having an image of mine bookmarked.

The Crisis of Credit Visualized






This is a pretty interesting little video that explains what the hell is goin on with our economy. The narration sucks a little but the animation is kinda nice.

Ah Holly Fam'ly and Horse Feathers




Last week I saw Portland bands : Ah Holly Fam'ly and Horse Feathers (SUID alum, Cat O'Dell plays chelo).

Alex who loves vinyl (and wombats, of course)






Check out : alex who loves vinyl (and wombats, of course)'s photostream on flickr. He takes series of photos titled People who hug things, ______ looking deadpan meeting mike wazowski, people looking for things, species in the park/bench/water, things with eyes. Here is a flickr member's testimonial: kerri.o says:"I stumbled across Alex's photostream through a comment somewhere, and he has had me laughing ever since. I have no idea who this guy is, or even if he REALLY uses a polaroid and IS 9 years old (physically or mentally - history does not relate). But he is completely barmy and utterly hilarious. Treading the fine line between genius and madness in fluffy pink slippers."

Tribal Futures


RCA collaborated with Vodafone for a project entitiled "Tribal Futures" . "Social theorists predict that traditional units of society such asthe family are becoming less dominant, and instead - elective, tribal groupings are on the rise.The Tribal Futures project undertaken by Design Interactions at the Royal College of Art over a 4 week period, and in collaboration with Vodafone, enquires into the changes technology will make to our behaviour in groups - both mundane and extreme. It proposes design interventions to support, subvert and celebrate our tribal connections." Just imagine being able to update your twitter status with your bodily functions...

Solar Vintage




The Solar Vintage Project by Elena Corchero unites new technology and tradition. Solar Vintage is a collection of fashion accessories that explore ways of incorporating organic solar cells into antique textiles. In the evening the pieces transform into decorative ambient lights for the home, powered only by energy collected during the day. Images show an unbrella that collects power from the sun during the day and at night can be hung at a chandelier.

Hello?


Hi Everyone,

It's me Mikie, I apologize for my absence but i've had shit to do. To continue Jeremy's unsuccessful experiment in what where all doing I decided i'll talk about myself for a little while because my boss is gone. Have you ever wondered how long it would take you to sell out completely? Well I havn't, becasue I already know! 7 months... it takes 7 months. So i'm living in LA reasonably close to the ocean and i'm developing a retail brand for a company that does promotional products. It's pretty boring as hell, however as the only designer I get total control so in that sense it's pretty sweet. We've got a website that's gonna be up in the near future.. i'll be sure and let everyone know via this blog.

Anyways... this print site is pretty sweet, so maybe check that out too by clicking on the man with the mustache.
