I Know What Kanye West Will Blog Next Week

March 25th, 2009

NoMoreSleep brought to my attention that Kanye West reblogged some of my posts. Which is of course fine, this is the internet after all! So I did a quick search on his blog and found 5 posts from today and tomorrow. The strange thing is that this one post isn’t published yet, check out the date. So I guess I just found out what he (and/or his little helpers) will post next week.
Kanye … could you send me a pair of black LV Don’s in 8.5? That would be great!

The MacGuffin Library

March 25th, 2009

“The MacGuffin Library” is project by Noam Toran, Onkar Kular and Keith Jones.
A MacGuffin is a term attributed to Hitchcock, it is a cinematic plot device, usually an object, that serves to set and keep the story in motion despite lacking intrinsic importance.
“The MacGuffin Library” consists of 16 objects based on 16 original film stories written by Noam, Onkar & Keith. The objects and the film excerpts should stimulate the viewer to imagine the film.
The objects are made out of a black polymer resin using a rapid prototype machine.

I always find it fascinating when someone can fold a sheet of paper into a rigid 3D structure. This video is a compilation of some experiments by Daniel Piker. Great stuff!

If you want to try it yourself, then these patterns may help you.

If you have been in Berlin Mitte in the last few months, then you might have seen these posters “Vive La Crise!” by SP-38. Love his style.
