Radiohead’s latest video for their single House of Cards is, in true Radiohead fashion, a little bit ground-breaking. The video was recorded without light and without cameras. Instead they employed a couple of scanning technologies that mapped the scenes in 3D. They could then use the raw data to create the video using various rendering options and show the scenes from any angle they desired. Read the rest of this entry »

I recently purchased a pair of Nike+ running shoes. I had been eager to track my running data (distance, duration, calories) for some time, and after a couple of runs, I have been very impressed with the data, presentation, and sharing capability provided by Nike. Read the rest of this entry »

I recently had the opportunity to attend the Offf festival in Lisbon, as a Dusted correspondent. The event, in its 8th edition, is one of the most exciting digital design festivals in Europe at the moment. It showcases top talents from web design to typography, motion graphics to installations, in a 3day marathon of talks, performances and workshops, lasting 10 hours each, uufff.

The footer, as if to warrant its physical position in life, can often be left until last during the design process, like some sort of digital outcast. To the contrary, the footer deserves so much more attention than that.

It can reinforce a brand, offer up exciting tools and just simply finish of a page in an aesthetic way. Read the rest of this entry »

After visiting the Future of Web Design last year, I thought I’d attend again this year taking my trusty sidekick Jack along for the ride this time. Once again it was a very interesting day with top-quality speakers. Read the rest of this entry »

Today’s Design Week revealed a fresh new (and apparently, less expensive) identity for the DairyCo – the new name for the Milk Development Council (MDC). According to the agency behind it, the new logo is “… about promoting openness and freshness in its bright colour scheme…” though we think it bears a slight resemblance to our own ‘D’ logo – what do you think?

There has been an international flavour to the Dusted studio lately with several pieces work coming to the boil for Chinese, Japanese and American markets – our internationalisation department has been very busy (but not yet managed to leave the confines of SE1). Read the rest of this entry »

Web Directions North 08 wrapped up a few weeks ago and I have finally found time to write up my notes. As with dConstruct 2007, all of the speakers were excellent and although I didn’t get to see all of the presentations, here are my notes on most of them. Read the rest of this entry »
