This is related to my last entry. I saw this piece for the first time at the One Show, and it reminded me of retouch.
This is a really interesting project by Forsman & Bodenfors (Sweden). This interactive piece is a social commentary on appearances, revealing what damage is being done by magazines by exposing the underhanded retouch.

The Powers of 10 by Ray and Charles Eames
This short film has long been a favorite for designers and educators alike since it's birth in 1977 by Charles and Ray Eames. It's nine minutes in length, but well worth watching (again and again). To think that this was produced 30 years ago is magnificent. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend taking a short (9 minute) break to watch this revolutionary video.
Se7en movie titles by Kyle Cooper
This has always been one of my favorite titles by Cooper. More recently, I enjoyed his opening titles for the romantic comedy, Wimbledon (imdb) (it's the best part of the film).
Mixi
Have you heard of it? I had no idea. That's ok though because most of the Japanese population hasn't heard of "myspace". I knew of cyworld well before it hit the US, but this one is new to me. I'm not quite sure what to think of it. I'm kind of curious now.
