I am taking a break from the real world so posts will be thin / non-existent over the next few weeks. Enjoy your summer, and see you on the other side with lots of fresh inspiration. Thanks for watching.
Simon.

I came across the above image earlier today, which made me think wow, as good reason as any to post I figure. Not sure whether it is the Harrier or the Jaguar, either way they are both part of an exhibition by Fiona Banner at Tate Britain.
Nice.
Wow, wow, and wow, welcome to the miniature photographic world of artist Lori Nix.

I am a big fan the talented Mr Hellovon‘s work, some of his latest being the great work above.
Having had first hand experience working with the people that make this fantastic technology reality, this is of a particular interest, however the simple joyous response of the baby, is with or without inside knowledge a wonderful thing. To read more about Cochlear Implant technology click here.
The above cat, ‘Missy’ had me in tears of laughter at the weekend, found via twitter but at home on the web satirist David Thorne’s homepage 27/b6, I really suggest you click here, take a deep breath, and get ready to split your sides. Brilliant stuff. Overdue Account is also well worth read and chuckle too. In fact take a while and laugh away at each and every piece of email funniness.
Great stuff.
Nice. Click here for the architects website.

We’ve seen the ad, now above, is a (small) example of how the whole campaign is being rolled out.
Wow. No this isn’t a piece of Jean-Pierre Jeunet set design, but in fact a very real hotel in Amsterdam.
Replaced after 50 years by a beautiful, quite mesmerising film, created by Fallon.
A very nice body of work by German design agency Raum Mannheim.

As part of the recent Joining Forces exhibition at the Concrete Hermit Gallery, illustrator James Joyce teamed up with CGI specialists The 3D Agency, to create one of his 2D illustration, in yes real life 3D.

A fantastic project beautifully created by designer Phil Bold for The London Fields debut album
The design, packaging and promotion for This is Yours, was achieved through the industrious efforts of family and friends who all donated materials to be recycled for the project…
The campaign, overseen by designer Phil Bold, used 250 cereal boxes cut to size and painted white to make the CD sleeves. The accompanying labels were then made from donated parcel tags and string. The material for the inlay cards was also donated with the track listing rubber-stamped on top.
The next stage of the campaign also fully embraced the concept of freecycling. Copies of the album were attached to the railings of the London Fields park in London (from which the band take their name) and several were also tied to the branches of trees and launched on balloons.
The blue tag that holds the CD in place reads: “If you are reading this then you have probably found this album. After you have had a listen please sign the card and leave it in a place for someone else to find. Kind regards.”
The album is a limited run of only 500 hand numbered copies. Presuming you haven’t been lucky enough to find one of them, you can get a digital version for free right here.
Great stuff. via CRBlog (thanks)
