BBC Radio One :: Best Noise Never
k, I have to apologize for being somewhat absent these last few weeks. I recently embarked on 3 months of travel and will be all over this great land through mid-March. The last few weeks were spent in Seattle which I will cover in a post very soon. More importantly I am working frantically with Kimmell to get together a few year end lists for you, including iPhone Apps of the Year and Noise of...

Keith Loutit
We posted one of his films before but when I came across one of his latest and in my opinion his best, Bathtub V, I decided he needed some more attention. Sydney based photographer Keith Loutit has foud a unique niche in the film/photography world. Combining a variety of techniques mainly “Tilt Shift” photography, he turns massive mise-en-scène into the looks of a model set or...

Furni
Started a little over 6 years ago by Devin Barrette and Mike Giles Furni began as a “custom” furniture operation. Tired of working for the “man” they decided to go it alone. Devins cabinet making skills and my interest in simple, modern design got them a good start.
“These days were are shifting focus more and more to exploring and creating our own designs,...

Apple Tablet: Sports Illustrated Demo
Imagine a magazine cover converting into a video highlight of that moment. It should be here in early 2010 with Apple’s release of the Tablet. Basically an enlarged iPhone, the main question for developers is what operating system will the device run. A combination of OSX and the mobile iphone OS? It’s awesome to imagine how everything from textbooks to comics could be done in...

Don't Be Blinded by the Light
Designer shades just to hide your face (without the designer prices.) I was inter-shopping the other day and came across a great online store called 80’s purple. The best part was their large selection of $10 shades including the hottest style from the 80’s and today. Check it out:

La Blogoteque - Phoenix in Paris
All you need to know is that Phoenix is an incredible band. I saw them perform at Monolith this summer on the main stage of Red Rocks. They killed it. And then you need to know that Vincent Moon is a modern day master of the music video. The two got together recently and recorded four tracks under the timeless shadows of the Eiffel Tower as the most recent Take Away Show. Enough of my...

Home, this is where we live.

You can watch Yann Anthus-Bertrand’s acclaimed film Home for free in HD on YouTube. The film will show you the natural beauty of Earth and the very real effects of how overpopulation is choking out...

Dock Ellis & The LSD No-No
This has been floating around for a bit and it’s a good one. Sheds an interesting glimmer of light on MLB players mentality toward drug use. Makes the banning of chew funny.
