Hand Drawn CD Covers – Trend or Am I Seeing Something?
loose I was in the local big-box book retailer the other day to pick up a copy of Elvis Costello‘s latest masterpiece, and noticed a curious thing: many of the new “albums” (I’m showing my age) OK, CD’s had hand drawn cover art. Maybe I’ve been chatting too much with graphic designers these days on…

Video Inspiration of the Day: BEATRICE AT THE MARKET – Shooting Dance
via vimeo.com If you’re a videographer (or photographer for that matter) who has ever had the fortunate experience to shoot a dance piece, you’ll appreciate this short film by marzio on Vimeo.

#DCTH Chat Session for 06/04/09
Had a rather pressing call from a friend, so I missed the last hour of #DCTH tonight. I wish someone would save the #DCTH chat sessions in a PDF or something so… Oh, wait, that’s just what I did. Once again, Thursday is a bit cursed for the Twitter Search API, but despite the sluggishness…

#DCTH Chat Session for 05/14/09
He (or She) who lives by the Twitter, dies by the Twitter – Mikeclese the Elder, AD 2009 Wow, a major combo-FAIL tonight: Twitter’s Search API borked #DCTH midway through, and the subsequent Tinychat room was booting folks (like @DCTH) or not allowing folks to post… On top of that, a stray bad-click on my…
Video Inspiration of the Day: A Walk in Chicago (You'll hate your own home movies after this)
via vimeo.com OK, so I found this one yesterday… it’s another piece by Sami Takieddin. A simple premise, a trip into Chicago with his wife and young son, transformed into a thing of beauty by an amazing talent, and a little technology. From what I’ve gleaned from some of his other videos, he’s using a…
