Real or CG. Gran Turismo 5 is blurring the lines even more.

Took a couple of viewings for my eyes to tell the difference on one of the shots.

Technically impressive. Can’t wait to see what the game play is like.

Google Envelopes. In concept beta

Posted: April 5th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: Creative, Design, Digital, Social, Technology | Tags: , , , , | No Comments »

There’s something really nice about taking something form the digital space and giving it physical form. Few privacy concerns maybe, but I like it as a concept.

Designers Rahul Mahtani & Yofred Moik from the Industrial Design program at Syracuse University came up with this concept called Google Envelopes.

I’m going to try this out later.

Interesting to go for completely voice / no-touch in an app, but I like the look of it.

LastHistory – interactive visualization your Last.fm history, obviously

Posted: March 29th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: Creative, Digital, Music, Technology, Visual, Web | Tags: , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

Takes a while to initalise the first time, but once the data is in there it’s loads of fun to play with. It’s also got a really nice ‘personal mode’ that hooks up to iPhoto to display pics taken at the time you listened to the music.

One cashier, one hidden cam, one printer. Burger King prove that each sandwich is unique, made to order, especially for each customer.

Can’t decide about this one.
