Timely technology

Completely self serving to Toyota, but a cool concept nonetheless. Check out their Ideas for Good website.

Head injuries are a hot topic right now within professional, college and youth football. There are some really sad stories out there proving football is causing severe brain issues. Check out former college buddy of mine who recently passed.

It is great to see innovation and technology responding to some of society's major issues.

close your eyes.

An interesting new stimuli utilized in an advertising message by BMW. This new approach seemed to wow consumers.

Could have some fascinating implications, especially within more immersive environments or even experiential marketing where you could create eyes-closed experience by initiating pitch darkness. Could be even cooler if there wasn't a brand logo showing up at the end.

innovation in skateboarding

Kilian Martin brings new movements to skateboarding taking the art form in new directions. There are blends of old school riding with new school tricks, but it is his ability create movements which sync with one another, reflective of poetry. These harmonious acts of art have developed new ways to look at skateboarding as a whole and hopefully will evolve further to create new beautiful exhibitions.

enthusiasm + innovation within architecture

The problem:
You have 344 sq. foot home. You have your parents and younger sisters living with you. Your bedroom is the living room and your style is cramped.

Do you:
A.) Get the f*ck out and buy a new place to accommodate?
B.) Pull a Gary Chang and solve the current problem?

Props to Gary for having the vision and imagination to create an effective solution. This is truly inspiring.

I believe Albert Einstein said it best with, "Problems cannot be solved by the same level of thinking that created them.”

do something with your life

make a 2 mile camera remote. I thought this was cool little project. I want to set up on my neighbor's rooftop and take pictures of myself on my roof top just for the sake of it now.

why do they call it the big city?

It looks pretty small to me. :)

The Sandpit from Sam O'Hare on Vimeo.

Video is made by a technique called tilt-shift photography. This particular video consists of over 35,000 stills and took over 5 days to shoot. Truly beautiful.

a red revolution

The boys in Pittsburgh will be reinventing the ways we use ketchup with the newly redesigned ketchup packet. I am personally a huge fan of the new packet. I was confused as to why it was taking so long to redesign (40 years!). Well done.

the battle begins

After a long wait and much anticipation it looks like LEGO Universe is going to be launching soon. As a strong LEGO advocate because of their constant innovation, strategic partnerships and creative brand communications strategy I am especially excited to see their evolution into virtual worlds. LEGO consistently builds meaningful brand interactions that are ahead of trends within media consumption behaviors. Their brand consistently stays relevant among changing digital platforms and interfaces.

LEGO Universe will rival other tween/teen virtual worlds such as Gaia and Habbo, but its game functionality will attract traditional gamers to virtual worlds. It will be interesting to watch the launch, adoption and use of Universe over the next year, especially how brands can extend their IP into new innovative forms of interaction.

a mobile revolution?

Hard to say, but the new phone named First Else is claiming it is redefining the mobile market as we know it. Taking a whole two years to develop because the designers started from scratch. The designers decided to develop a phone without any pre-existing requirements, limitations or guidelines. This approach has created a unique interface that is intuitive and has the ability to set a new trend in user interface and interaction design.





Ripped the story from here where there is a video of the interface design.
