Zombie Walk
I’m not normally a big fan of flashmob type things, I find the whole pointlessness kind of depressing. But this sounds like a bit more fun. It’s got entertainment at the end of it, and I’m sure you’d get to meet some interesting Zombie…
Dress Codes Gone Mad
I love the phrase ‘Dress to Impress’ it makes me immediately understand that this is not a club for me. But the addition of no ‘branded shirts’ is great. I’m sure that Naomi Klein would be overjoyed that her whole No Logo philosophy has…
PSFK Conference in LA
If you’re lucky enough to be in or around LA on the 18th September you could do a lot worse than head to the PSFK conference. It looks like a great line up with lots of good stuff on… http://www.psfk.com/psfk-conference-los-angeles
Cryptic Icons
Icons are cool. They let you get across the message quickly and easily. Unless of course they’re bad icons that just leave you puzzled and wondering what on earth is going on… No socks? No messy ticks? No poor counterfeit Nike sportswear?…
Managing Expectations
I liked this. It’s on the back door of the Oxfam bookshop in Brighton. You kind of get a sense of what’s going to happen if you press the button (not much pretty slowly). Perhaps web interfaces should take a lead out of this kind of…
Nike Nooooooooooooooooo!
New Nike Vintage site. And it uses page-turns. I guess perhaps it’s a retro-vintage thing. But no. Just no. Didn’t you read, it’s one of the 7 Deadly Sins (almost)…
Rachel Whiteread Poster
As always Brick Lane is home to the most interesting posters…
Accidental Ad Mashups
Ribena have these quite fancy outdoor ads that rotate between flavours but have the same message overlaid on the top. They’re pretty eye catching and a bit clever. Where they work less well is when the board inside gets changed and the…
SFMGFiPod
This made me LOL. It’s a music blog post. Normally the guy posts up decent music, but he’s got a thread called SFMGFiPod (which stands for ‘shit from my girlfriend’s iPod’). He’s basically posting up the stuff that his girlfriend is…
Hidden in the Club Posters
I originally took this photo because I thought it was funny that Vivaldi and Bach were being treated in the same way as Bukem and Grooverider. Wondering what time Vivaldi would be playing his set, etc. But then I looked at the photo and…
Now That’s What I Call a Table!
This has been around for a while, but someone just sent it round work again. Stunning bit of physical interface shenanigans
The Image of Joy Division
Lots of stories around this weekend about the sad death of Tony Wilson. It also span off lots of stories about bands that he’d been involved with and that time in Manchester. This story in the Observer caught my interest: Closer to the…
