This is the most exciting thing I’ve seen online in a while. thru-you is an incredible project from Ofir Yekutiel AKA Kutiman, a groovy dude from Tel-Aviv that already established himself as a nu-funk talent. Kutiman searched through hundreds of youtube videos and remixed them to create awesome new music. I’m sure some people did [...]
who said that websites can’t make you cry? KideoPlayer, the new digitoy from Tom of Poke NY just made both my digital strategist self and my daddy self cry with delight. It’s a super-easy, interactive, fun and safe way for parents and babies/toddlers to “channel surf” YouTube together and find fantastic content. For now, it’s [...]
Originally I’ve embedded Obama’s victory speech but for some reasons it got disabled. Luckily Dickon just sent me this little gem, it actually even better. Rock on America. Barack Obama x Z-Trip x Shepard Fairey x Fresh Pressed from Barack On! Obamathon on Vimeo.
If you never came across the Big picture blog from Boston.com drop anything and put it on your RSS feed now. Made of vibrant oversized photographs telling news stories in a way that makes the cliche one picture worth etc like a huge understatement. Whether you need a reassurance in the beauty of the world [...]
Following on from my previous post on children fantasy drawings made real let me take you now to a different world altogether… This portfolio website is the f***ing nuts. Martin Hughes’ (yup,the dude from wefail) dark and haunting portfolio is crammed with so many gems you just can’t stop exploring his artfully twisted world even [...]

They are both a window to children’s inner world but also great for examining children’s (inter)subjectively held ideas about the larger social world in which they participate. Burns (1987) [...]
The almighty geeks of Poke just released over 30,000 balloons across the internet and it looks absolutely amazing. It’s unlike anything you’ve seen before. The Race is On! [I have a feeling that no one's gonna work here this week...we're all gonna kick some ass]
Thanks to the brilliant New York Times selections supplement that comes every Sunday with the ever so good Observer I learned about I-BE AREA – a highly impressionistic, sensationally anarchic fucked-up-unlike-anything-I’ve-seen-before piece of video art by Ryan Trcartin. I cannot really describe this sheer visual narrative madness where characters move in a jerky, speeded-up, look-at-me [...]
We’ve just upgraded to the new mac Leopard OS and every min you discover some new niceness. It’s just full of small and big joyful improvements – from RSS reader built in your inbox to being able to see the content of a doc/pic/file without actually opening it, to the playful moving backgrounds on the [...]
I went to see James Thierree’s show at Sadlers Wells last week and i’m still touched by this absolutely amazing performance: It makes you laugh, it makes you wanna cry out loud in joy and it powerfully invokes remote childhood memories and places hidden deep in your mind…. Simply magical. Thanks Rafa!!!
