well, a few… starting below with osama bin laden’s erstwhile florida home and stalin’s modest old little home (above)… plus some mysterious rocket towers from the third reich, still standing at various locations all over germany
me news
photo, shoot
a bizarre story to start the year: a manillan politician unwittingly took a picture of the man who was about to assassinate him on new years’ eve, the police later arrested the man in question after a devasted family discovered the incriminating evidence… (with thanks to ‘janet deibert’)
behind the scenes
it turns out that ‘yul brynner’ was not only an actor but also an enthusiastic photographer who spent a lot of time documenting his own unusual life and making candid shots of the celebrities that surrounded him
his daughter has recently compiled a book divided up into four parts entitled yul which looks really interesting to me or as the blub puts it: a sensational portrayal of a time without paparazzi documenting every celebrity’s move.
cool forms
it doesn’t matter what forms we can imagine or create, nature has always been there first and done it way better…
rank and file
…created in response to statistical data exploring different aspects of social hierarchy… a really nice set of infographics entitled rank by designer ‘gareth holt’, that shirt looks very similar to one of my favourites by henrik vibskov
