The great work of others pt1 The great work of Jim Schomberg. Found thanks to Steve Smith’s Tumblelog.
Found this link to a whole bunch of mostly crassly sexist adverts from way back but but there’s other NO-NOs in there too: TOP 48 ADS THAT WOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TODAY. Still not seen Mad Men yet but I… Continue Reading →
Three weeks ago now I came across a bunch of great links – mostly from the LiquidTreat [waybackmachine] email newsletter. That had been the first time I’d read the newsletter in a while and it was unusually rewarding. I’ll take… Continue Reading →
Adobe regularly asks for feedback from its customers. The format its the 1-10 scale commonly used for Net Promoter Score rating. They ask for a rating then there’s the another, optional, open-ended question What would make me more likely to… Continue Reading →
Currently there’s stuff all over the place about bad, closed Apple Inc. I love the hardware – but I’m no fanboy. I wish for more interoperability in my iPod. And features too. To be able to sync one iPod with… Continue Reading →
Love, love, love this song. It’s “old” now, from 2007, back when the hipster movement was just starting to gain traction around the world. Ironic and witty. Your gran’s got her own logo.
“MND research is not so different from the Apollo Program and our ‘one small step’ will be taken too.” Dr Martin Turner, Neurologist. By Patrick Joyce, friend.
Not everybody’s cup-of-tea. Paco Loco is a famous producer on the Spanish indie scene, strictly left-field, and an essential part of Monkey Week (El Puerto de Santa Maria variants thereof). Los Jaguares de la Bahía is the outfit he does… Continue Reading →
Muzzle is your social and chat app notification shusher. Use before you screencast yo’ bad macOS lap|desk-top-self in front of just any old body. It might just save your job.

Jason Forrest, "War Photographer", Shamelessly Exciting, Sonig Records, Dir. Joel Trussell. Mash it up.

Lovely eight minute video – perhaps shot on a Canon 5D mkII? (love that bokeh) – how to convert a stock kit lens into a macro. This is a stellar bit of cottage industry engineering. Via Gadget Lab If you… Continue Reading →
The Here Gallery & Bookshop in Bristol – it’s the best little “illustrated paper goods” store this side of Hades and a favourite-city-pilgrimage thing of mine. As is the CAC Malaga when in Malaga or the horse houses of Utrecht… Continue Reading →
I prefer her track Malamente but this _video_ is a hum-dinger. Perhaps this more downbeat and mantra-like song helps the cinematically stylised symbolism shine through. Like a flamethrower.
