These great pictures are by artist Dave Devries. Taking doodles and sketches from very young kids he re-imagines them into 3D illustrations. Using extra colour, textures, and shading he indeed makes them a lot scarier. Want some more? Here you go. Read more

Paul, Adam and I have first-hand experience of the Heineken sponsorship of the Champions League through the medium of table football. We know it’s not easy, it’s challenging, emotional even. But what we suffered pales in comparison to these poor Italian football fans.

Tweeting. Swiss Style.
March 11th, 2010 · Ric · No Comments
I’m not a fan of Twitter, maybe because most people use it to waste time posting things no one is interested in. I do quite like Helveti-tweet, a fairly pointless website that shows Tweets about Helvetica. I’m amazed how often people mention the typeface. Maybe Comic Sans needs an obituary site?

Our favourite Russian industrial designers and keyboard maker are back with a new clock. Art. Lebedev have merged analogue and digital — the clock has hands that form the numbers like on a digital display. You need to see it moving to truly appreciate it, thankfully you can do that here.

March 4th, 2010 · Ric · No Comments
A big Happy Birthday to the PlayStation 2 that is 10 years old — in computing terms that’s several lifetimes. Whilst I never owned one myself, but my brother did and spend many an hour playing on it. It changed gaming and cemented Sony’s position in the market — the PlayStation Generation was born. It’s sold over 140 million units to date which is amazing, and it’s still going strong now. On it’s first day alone it made more than $250 million dollars in sales! It wasn’t just the hardware that sold well, the game Grand Theft Auto sold over 17 million copies. Read more
