By Don Tercio | Published: 23/01/2010

[ 01/05/2010 to 02/05/2010. ] [tweetmeme] What do Saddam Hussein & Star wars have in common?

This is more or less the question Michael Rakowitz asks himself in his latest exhibition at Tate Modern taking some parts of the dictator’s famous sculptures like the “Swords of Qādisiyyah”.

Michael Rakowitz is what some people call “a cultural archaeologist”, uncovering an unexpected network of [...]

Image: Chrome ads invade the UK

By Don Tercio | Published: 14/01/2010

You’ve already seen Google’s Chrome ads haven’t you? But Google’s biggest ad campaign for one of their products is getting maybe (just maybe) a bit too aggressive & even ridiculous. We took this photo yesterday (with our Nexus 1 btw) @ Oxford Circus Tube in London (Bakerloo Line)…. the whole platform covered by Google….
Nothing new [...]

Less & More, The Design Ethos of Dieter Rams @ DesignMuseum – London

By Don Tercio | Published: 13/12/2009

[ 20/02/2010 to 21/02/2010. ] Personally I love Braun’s razors, their design has always been one of the best  electronic gadgets of all time, slim, minimalistic but undoubtedly a great razor. For over 40 years (1955 – 1995) Dieter Rams designed or oversaw the design of over 500 products for the German electronics manufacturer Braun, as well as furniture for [...]

      This is not the first time Msft launches an expensive campaign for their Bing “decision engine” or that they position themselves against the “information overload” you get from Google search results, but it is a first for the UK, where big G holds an even higher market share than in the States…

    • Music: the punisher
      11/03/2010 | 9:26 pm

We just received a little message from Lonski and Classen today asking if we liked their vid by by Britt Dunse…. well, what do you think?

    • Whim: nissyoku
      11/03/2010 | 9:19 pm

      Alberto Vasquez and Dániel Lőrincz are behind igendesign and this great “nissyoku” lamp concept for those relaxing & intimate moments / rooms. A double light “inspired by the solar eclipse”… which reminds us of Sony’s Rolly (don’t ask why).

      We find Brendan Wenzel’s human illustrations are funnily enough similar to Hugo Pratt’s style… a mere coincidence that he studied at the Pratt Institute? (although it’s not related at all). He’s probably more well known for his fauna & flora illustrations…
