We love this selection of architectural photographs by artist Dennis Ramos who captures the clean lines, geometric shapes and lights of an urban environment in dark imagery that plays with powerful contrasts. For more of Dennis’ amazing work, check out his Instagram account – it’s sensational stuff! Happy Friday, everyone 🙂
We love this selection of animated GIFs by Carl Burton, a designer and artist based in New York, who creates unique and slightly haunting atmospheres with a beautiful use of light and colour. Fantastic work! 🙂
Mashable Watercooler imagines what E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial would be like as a 1990s sitcom by creating these awesome opening credits. LOVE it! 🙂
We love this selection of the latest illustrated comparisons from 2 Kinds of People – the small differences in daily life, the two kinds of people and their different ways of doing things. Funny ’cause they’re so true 🙂
Promoted in this beat box-style video created by Ogilvy Hong Kong, KFC in Hong Kong have partnered with McCormick, the spice company that mixes their secret recipe, to create a limited run of edible “finger lickin’ good” nail polishes that come in the most popular flavours such as Original and Hot & Spicy. This marketing gimmick takes licking your fingers to a whole new level…WTF?!
What if your cat could actually talk? Presenting Catterbox, an amazing cat collar innovation that translates the meows and sounds of your beloved feline into clear English words and sentences. The designers of the Catterbox have analysed hundreds of sound samples produced by cats to help the collar translate as accurately as possible for it seems cats do not ‘meow’ amongst each other, but only to communicate with humans. Hmmm slightly sceptical here but hey, whatever blows your hair back – if you’re the type who wants your cat to start ranting day and night, then this is definitely for you. Happy Friday, everyone! 🙂
We love the work of photographer and graphic designer Tomba Lobos who has created an interesting set of portraits, disfiguring his models with a clever mix of flesh coloured play dough and digital retouching. A slightly unsettling yet original and unique series that explores the boundaries of classic photography and basic sculpting and digital versus analogue image manipulation.
Radiohead: We’re loving the animated video for Radiohead‘s new single “Burn the Witch” directed by Chris Hopewell and paying homage to a number of different but distinct films including The Wicker Man and The Prisoner as well as current cultural events such as Burning Man. Check it out – a very clever must watch 🙂
In honour of the 75th anniversary of M&Ms, Nick Bertke (aka Pogo) has created a remix using footage from M&Ms ads over the years. Love it – and now I want some! 🙂
Photographer Adrienne Salinger has documented the bedrooms of American teenagers in the 1990s, asking teens to pose surrounded by their personal possessions revealing the styles and trends that epitomised the era. Looking all too familiar really… 😉
