Not quite design, not quite technology, but art is art is art...
Heavy Metal Gangs of Wadeye
27 Nov. 2009
VBS travels into Australia’s outback in search of the aboriginal youth gangs of Wadeye, all of which have taken their name, dress, and overall attitude from the 1980’s and 90’s golden age of heavy metal.
My brother did the sound design for this!

Workspace+
01 Nov. 2009
Workspace+ is a collection of photos by Joseph O. Holmes capturing the different desks of people around NYC. I find it quite interesting to see the spaces in which others work. Personally, I can't work in a highly cluttered environment. These photos suggest to me that many people feel otherwise.

Paper shoes
25 Oct. 2009
I find myself moved by these. I am impressed by how well the paper maps to the real material used in Nike shoes. We expect consistent colors out of the fabric used in shoes and this is a trait paper also has, thus the substitution of fabric for paper appears to work quite well!
An illustrator from the UK named David Brownings is selling these for about $50 a piece.
