really like the work done by fabien baron from baron & baron in new york. some of the work on his website is now almost a bit outdated but most stuff is pretty timeless and i like it as much now as when i saw it for the first time a few years back.

zoogami beer
Posted on | May 21, 2009 | No Comments
fun site done by saatchi & saatchi for zoogami beer with keyword mash-up function using online resources and material. actually kind of works to link it to contemporary. won’t go anywhere if it doesn’t taste but it’s a fun step in the right direction.

the population in western countries grows old faster and faster. so crime against elderly people is a hot topic. but watch out for those who can defend themselves. walker and other utensils suddenly turn into leathal weapons.



200 gallon water tank landscape photography
Posted on | May 20, 2009 | No Comments
pretty cool and definitely a different kind of landscape photography. the artist kim keever’s large-scale photographs are created by meticulously constructing miniature topographies in a 200-gallon tank, which is then filled with water. these dioramas of fictitious environments are brought to life with colored lights and the dispersal of pigment, producing ephemeral atmospheres that he quickly captures with his large-format camera.

stages of transformation

quite like this schematic of a werewolf transformation done by illustrator ray frenden. it reminds me how creatives sometimes feel working on a horrible assignment. and, in some cases it seems like full moon never goes away.

it seems like this decade will be visually recognized for a mix of illustrative fantastic hyper realism computer illustration. there is a whole generation of 20-somethings that illustrates the hell out of their computers. a lot of them fall into the same sort of style bucket. heiko klug’s work sticks out a bit and is quite interesting. check out his portfolio jesar-one.com


hamilton drives real grand prix car – remotely via cell phone
Posted on | May 8, 2009 | 1 Comment
not bad! “Vodafone teamed up with the Formula One team Mercedes McLaren to promote the new BlackBerry Storm, purpose-built for Vodafone. The phone holds an abundance of multimedia capabilities, which were the focus for the video. The guys at BlackBerry built a small remote controlled race car and used the BlackBerry for steering. They then took it to the McLaren crew and let Lewis Hamilton drive a genuine Grand Prix car with the remote. The idea is very original and demonstrates the potential for multimedia integration today. The video produced more than 1.4 million views within the first six weeks.”

plastic bags like silk dresses
Posted on | May 3, 2009 | No Comments
wow, take a look at how poetic these prints look like, almost as if they were a modern still-life painting. the chinese artist huang xu takes shreds of used plastic bags and makes 3d scans, then takes the scan data and turns them into 3d models, illuminates them and makes prints of it. pretty amazing if you think about turning one of the cheapest products on earth, a simple plastic bag into a silk dress impression – a metaphor of the old and new china.



audi d7 concept, dream to reality
Posted on | May 3, 2009 | 1 Comment
interesting audi concept done by young iranian designer kave naser bakht. the D7 is a super sports concept car with an electric engine in front. among the features areare the charging crack on the nose and light belts around the car which integrate the headlights and taillights while forming the shape typical of audi’s head lamps and grilles, thus making the car easily recognizable at night.
