The Power Project

in , ,

Celebrating the landmark 1977 Eames film, Powers of Ten™, The Powers Project invited 40 innovative artists from around the world to produce original segments for each power of ten using a variety of digital and film techniques. This new, collaborative homage playfully transplants the film’s journey from the physical universe to a unique, imagined universe of graphic abstractions.

Traces by Abbie Stephens

in , , , , ,

Inspiring video created to mark the launch of Spanish designer Emilio De La Morena's SS13 collection, Abbie Stephens' film plays light against dark to accentuate the textural details and silhouettes across the range. Drawing inspiration from the themes of memory and perception that Emilio used as the basis for his new pieces, Abbie creates and inverts worlds to play with the line between imagination and reality.

Bang and Olufsen - BeoPlay A9

in

B&O PLAY is designed to appeal to a new generation of audiophiles who also demand plug and play simplicity and wireless freedom. The BeoPlay A9 is a striking addition to the range – big, bold and beautiful, in both sound and vision.

"The BeoPlay A9 is perhaps its most radical and successful integration of sound and beauty to date. It’s a music system you want to give pride of place to, even build your domestic arrangements around, rather than look to hide."

"Young Denmark-based designer Øivind Alexander Slaatto has created a remarkably innovative design for the A9, essentially a clean white disc, which is the very definition of minimal."

Solitaire.exe cards by Evan Roth

in , ,

I love this project just because I run Win 3.11 in childhood in favor of DOS Games only because of Solitaire, Golf and Paintbrush studies."A simple piece of software got us through the dark ages of computing before the Internet allowed us to waste company time more effectively. Now you can reconnect with this old friend on the other side of the computer screen. Solitaire.exe is a physical pixel-for-pixel recreation of the popular computer card game included in the Windows 98 operating system." Evan Roth is an interaction designer whose work is in the permanent collection of The Museum of Modern Art and has received numerous awards, including the Design Museum London’s Design of the Year. Many of Roth’s works include the image of a pack of playing cards featured in solitaire.exe which came bundled in old Microsoft systems. As an exclusive collaboration with the Cooper-Hewitt, Evan Roth has created an actual deck of Solitaire.exe playing cards, faithfully and ironically replicated, right down to the pixilation. Each pack of playing cards in this limited edition of 500 is signed and numbered by Evan Roth (they are all sold out).

Teaching Character by Stephen Doyle

Teaching Characters is a series of indoors illusions (typography anamorphism) created by Stephen Doyle.

In the story, seven traits are characterized: Grit, Optimism, Curiosity, Self-Control, Gratitude, Zest... and that old chestnut, Social Intelligence.
