oh, and happy, happy friday.
just because this is freakin’ brilliant – here’s OK Go’s new video for ‘This Too Shall Pass’, which features a Rube Goldberg machine, and was shot on shoestring budget, and reportedly done in a single take. i kid you not. amazing and bravo to ok go!
oh, and happy, happy friday.
i love this virtual tour down san francisco’s market street in 1905, and the music from air makes it. not much has changed — it’s still bustling! except apparently, at one point you could you could still make a left turn, and, nobody was peeing on you. okay, maybe it’s a little bit different.
not a darn thing to do with design.
this isn’t about design — but it is creative, and i figured with all this rain and chill in the air, we all needed a good laugh to start out our day. this made me laugh so hard. you kids keep this crap up at work and you just know ‘the man’ is gonna take the computers away soon! i don’t even have a boss, but if i did i think he be considering this is getting out of control. and i for one, am thrilled there’s a bit of slacking now and then! it’s good for the downtrodden, overworked and underpaid soul! enjoy the ridiculously sublime.
Design For Mankind Dialogue.
The very prolific and talented Erin Loechner (see Time Out below) is at it again with a brand new endeavor, entitled Dialogue, a really cool video project on her blog, Design for Mankind. Erin has gathered together a fantastic group of people to participate in this Dialogue video series, dedicated to all the things we as a creative community should be sharing with each other.
The first Dialogue episode is all about ‘Balance’, and oh, how I could relate to that. I am the multi-tasking queen, and I can tell you, it’s exhausting! In this episode, Erin asks this panel, “how do you, as an artist/designer/blogger, hold it all together? What does your work/family/personal life balance look like, and what happens when you drop the ball?”. Check out what artists Lisa Solomon, Jen Gotch and Kelly Lynn Jones have to share on the topic. I think you too, will more than relate. Great job, Erin!
