always sharp

if you don’t live in holland you may not be aware that the dutch cabinet has just collapsed and that we are currently in the midst of chaotic local elections, this billboard which i came across today is almost too good to be true: a bizarre and almost cool mixed message from the socialist party and ‘zeeman’ a discount underwear chainstore… apparently it’s been hanging there in the centre of amsterdam for a few days now, so it’s looks like it’s not entirely by accident…

how many?

those numbers are just too much to take in but the moving graphics are always a nice distraction… ‘the state of the internet’ an infographic (blogged here via a tip from ‘sanne’ at fabrique on facebook, that’s 3 more numbers to add to the statistics)

interesting origami animation for mercedes, now don’t get me wrong, it’s a real labour of love and must have taken ages to make but what makes it noteworthy is that it is way too ‘slick’ and polished, even if it was done for real (which i doubt) it still all looks like it was done with CGI which i find a missed opportunity… it doesn’t say ‘authentic’ to me at all, in any way
