This Is Not The Blueprint 3

November 8th, 2009

Though this may look like an outtake from the photo shoot for Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 album cover, it is See Through by Helga Steppan. About this project: “See Through is a series of twelve photographs. In which I audited all my personal belongings and divided them into a full spectrum of colour groupings.” Really interesting stuff.

Review: The Magic (of the) Mouse

November 3rd, 2009

Ah, Magic Mouse. How beautiful you are. How I’ve dreamed of you… I’ve had three days with Apple’s new mouse, Magic Mouse. Check out my review. Concept: Pushing the boundaries and redefining products has always been on Apple’s agenda. I think they’ve outdone themselves yet again with this mouse. No physical buttons and no scroll wheel/ball? Pretty amazing. And with the Multi-Touch surface, Apple sets a new benchmark in mouse usability. They give users the fluidity that previous products did not achieve (industry-wid... MORE
