"Aponto a minha objectiva para fora, em direcção ao mundo que me rodeia, ou aponto-a para dentro, para mim mesmo? Devo fotografar a realidade existente ou criar o meu próprio mundo, verosímil ainda que inexistente?" É com estas interrogações pertinentes sobre a natureza da fotografia que Misha Gordin nos introduz ao seu trabalho e, ao olharmos para ele, não restam dúvidas sobre a opçã

Ciara Gets Conceptual On ‘Fantasy Ride’

"Soy Adam y mi trabajo es diseñar Fallout 3. Mi primera tarea fue crear el escenario para el universo de Fallout 3 a modo de diario de imágenes. Lo estudiamos minuciosamente con el resto del equipo, relacionamos nuestras experiencias de juego con el original e investigamos todo lo relacionado con los años 50 que entendimos podría mejorar la acción dramática, humor negro y la cargada ciencia
EL ARTE COMO IDEAReparemos por un momento en la fotografía de la derecha. ¿Qué vemos en ella? Evidentemente, una silla de madera. A la izquierda hay una foto (tal vez de la misma silla o de otra muy semejante) y en la derecha observamos un cartel en el que se recoge la definición que un diccionario inglés presenta para la palabra silla (chair).

Last Friday I delivered a short presentation on the state of mobile broadband for Techlaw's annual Spring Conference. This time it was hosted by Houthoff Buruma in Amsterdam.
My top-down view went along these lines:
Mobile broadband in itself is a huge opportunity, as it expands on mobile's original proposotion (voice, mobility, personalized handsets).At the same time, there are numerous threats

If your a ol’ school gamer like us at NWS, you’ll definitely appreciate Javier Segovia’s (a digital artist from Spain) industrial redesign. He refined the look, advanced the technical attributes, and dubbed it the reNESED. One more example after the break.

C’mon, we know there are a few of you out there who couldn’t keep a potted plant alive if a botanist was holding your hand, but there’s hope for you all yet. At least, there is if QianJun Gao’s masterpiece ever makes it past the drawing board. This eloquently dubbed Practice Plant features [...]
"When you love someone, you love the whole person, just as he or she is, and not as you would like them to be." -Leo Tolstoy, 19th Century Russian Writer and Philosopher, Leo Tolstoy books//How many times have you been in love? I'm not talking about the number of times that you think you were in love, or all of the instances in which you were passionately attracted to another individual. I mean really in love with someone, caring about that person more than you do yourself and accepting him or her without wanting to change them. True love, as Tolstoy says, is about loving the "whole person" as they are, and "not as you would like them to be." True love is genuine and personal - it is a connection that extends beyond the bounds of friendship, although it does include those feelings, and

"Cymbeline" at the Vivian Beaumont Theatre at Lincoln Center, November 6, 2007
One of Shakespeare's last four plays, Cymbeline seems to be one where he's pulling some old tricks out of his hat, hoping to mix up something new. What we get is a convoluted opera-style plot of scheming queens (real queens, that is), magic sleeping potions, gender-bending, war, not-so-dead children, beheadings and a

It’s pretty much official now that the Microsoft “Ohana” project was either halted or canceled sometime last year. That’s a shame because you don’t need to be a curator to admire the gorgeous CD sleeves, branding posters and now concept designs for this potentially revolutionary family-networking product and service.
Someone at Microsoft has kindly informed me that you only needed to look a step further to find some extremely insightful “Ohana” interface designs in the same SectionSeven portfolio. I must admit I’ve seen these before, but it had never occurred to me this was “Ohana”. If I were conscious at the time, the picture of a house should have given it away.
The portfolio description indicates the interfaces on the left are “Microsoft demo screens. Interface and vector demo environment.” and icons on the right are “Icon style study. Vector icons with customizable styles.” Whilst the buddy icons a
