Monday, 24 August 2009. Sorry for the absence, but a lot has happened this month - notably my birthday(! Currently biggin' it up in Australia, where broadband is a bit elusive. Anyway, there's a lot of things I need to blog about, including the journey here and the many amazing locations I have visited including a golf themed bar, some wine tasting (hmm, this seems to be all orientating around booze! The general Aussie culture. So apart from that, you haven't missed much! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Wednesday, 30 December 2009. About Pixar, very inspirational - it shows you what happens when you mix creativity with technology. I recommend watching it if you get the chance. Another book that I bought recently is " Zombies: A Record of the Year of Infection. By Don Roff and Chris Lane. I wont give the plot away, but the title says it all! Great Illustrations and story. So for my first post in ages, I will look at one of the books I received. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Tuesday, 29 June 2010. That's My Kind of Fashion! I love these super close up photos of bug eyes. The detail is outstanding. You can see more at the Wired blog. After using the underground system in London now for about three weeks, this is definitely what you need for getting down quick. If only you could do the same going up! Monday, 7 June 2010.

Wednesday, 30 September 2009. Sunday, 20 September 2009. A great family film with some good philosophy for designers. I love the whole style of the movie too- very art deco/retro future!

Be Spoke: January 2010

Wednesday, 27 January 2010. Not much I can say, just love it. Monday, 25 January 2010. Just found these pieces of fictional furniture and I love them! What I really like though, is not the objects themselves, but the development sketches - the array of variations in a grid works really well. I might nick that idea to use it in my project. Saturday, 16 January 2010. I love this mobile studio made to look like a pile of logs! It just has a nice aesthetic to it. From Thomas Mayer. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

My favourite invention of his is the Greet-o-meter (seen below), it just makes a nice beat and sound - Hello! Sunday, 18 October 2009. Saturday, 17 October 2009.

Saturday, 31 July 2010. Saturday, 24 July 2010. When The Wind Blows. Just finished watching the animated film "When The Wind Blows" based on the book by Raymond Biggs. All I can say is watch the film for yourself - it's a bit dated, but you can really relate to the characters "Keep calm and carry on" attitude. Brave New World - Aldous Huxley. The Road - Cormac McCarthy. Child of God - Cormac McCarthy. Crash - J.G. Ballard. The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde. The End of History. 8220;In true BrewDog...

Saturday, 18 December 2010. Words cannot describe how great this is - it's hilarious. Sunday, 12 December 2010. A great series of articles on fictional designers and their "work" by Matt Brown. I'm particularly fascinated by the attention to detail on the imaginary products and how perfectly styled they are to specific decades and topics. They can be found on Core 77. A very nice concept (by IDEO. Which is quite similar to my friend, Martin Skelly's, Playlist Player. Saturday, 4 December 2010.
