I thought this was a really beautiful idea, not just selling the product, but a means to make it sustainable. It’s a kind of strange, eco stock-option, two thumbs-up.

Michael Kontopoulos has created a system of sculptures that are constantly on the brink of collapse. He captures the exact moment of impending catastrophe and endlessly repeats it.

I found these lovely hand pulled gocco prints (via Flickr). Something about them is beautiful, the geometry is complex but the concept is simple. It’s a really nice contrast. Now available to buy on etsy.

Another great viral vid from the same guys that bought you the ‘Mentos Experiments’… Now with excellent production and editing!

This vid was going to put on my smile on my face anyway but it’s always good to think that from small projects like the original Mentos video these guys have managed to get an ad with Office World and produce another cracker.

If there is one thing youtube is good for, it’s press for the little guys. Congrats to Eepy Bird!

Today is (near-enough) six months since i first designed Geenius 3.0 and although overall I was happy with the design, I was getting to point where i felt that it needed a polish.

The original designs needed refining; the 2px borders felt overly cumbersome, the social-networking options where relatively unconsidered and I thought it would be nicer to have a separate portfolio website rather than just slap it on my blog.

It’s not perfect yet, but I felt it was complete enough for launch and is with all these things I can refine as I go. Anyway for your viewing pleasure here are the before and after shots.
