SyncLost – Immersive Electronic Music Cosmos

2 Feb

Very cool interactive info-graphic installation created by 3bits in Brazil.
It allows users to experience the evolution of electronic music via an interface to show the links between five main styles of electro music. When players make a hotspot selection using a Wii mote, connections appear showing where the style emerged from and what it went on to influence.

Beer Face

2 Feb

Belgian beer manufacturer Vedett takes immersive engagement and personalisation to a new level, inviting consumers to ‘become a Vedett’ by submitting their photograph for feature on the label of 10,000 beer bottles…even if not selected for ‘run’ consumers can order a case of their own beer, home delivered. narcissistic but nice

Affordable Sustainable

1 Feb

From Trendwatching’s Feb briefing:

“products that help consumers in emerging nations first and foremost save money on utilities, while offering consumers in mature consumer societies a chance to lead more sustainable lives. It’s a curious marriage between poverty and ‘meaningful living’ that nevertheless delivers the goods.”

Including Samsung India’s Solar Guru – a low-cost solar chargeable phone developed for developing countries with unstable power supplies…I want one

Now Baking…The Delilahs

31 Aug

Rock on…

 The Delilahs is a TV drama series I’m co-creating and writing with the girls at Studio Ish.

 

Picture 3

The series follows the provocative lives of three 40-something former 80′s rock chicks who are doing the growing up now that they didn’t do in their 20′s and 30′s, or attempting to…

 

In a nutshell it asks the question, ‘can you grow up and still rock on?’, ‘Can you do 

tuck shop in your Stooges T-Shirt?’

Facebook Road Trip – The New Keroac

20 Oct

More fodder for my fetish re digital media that enables meaningful experiences in ‘the real world‘, digi-media artist/student, Graham Smith traveled over 1800 miles in less than a week like a modern day Jack Keroac to physically connect with his Facebook friends, some of which he hadn’t seen for 15 years.

He and his travel-buddy made a mini-doc about the experience.

“This trip has really led me to see that these people I’ve lost contact with aren’t a series of updates and bits of information on a computer. They’re actually people living their lives.”

Everyone should take a social network road-trip according to Graham – it’s the new ‘On the Road’

Thanks to Miss Chapman for the reference

Niche is it!

10 Nov

Beautiful custom barcode designs, predominantly for Japanese clients is D-barcode’s business.

Describing their work as a ‘bar-code revolution’, D-Barcode licenses the rights to their designs for exclusive or non-exclusive use.

Want your own barcode? For just $4000 and a $400 per annum license fee, you can have exclusive use of a barcode design of your choice…

D-Barcode makes me want to create a product just so I can have a custom bar-code design. Perhaps they should branch into the tatto design market?…
