Art + Math = Tony Orrico

When art meets math with a glimpse of dance you get Tony Orrico, the human spyrograph. His latest work is based on a simple but brilliant idea with a lot of hard work hidden behind it. I have to admit, there is a lot of dedication involved as some of his drawings take up to 4 hours of continuous work. Now that's some serious workout...

Turn the volume down...

While I was catching up with one of my favourite blogs swiss-miss I stumbled across a funky brooch that already has a top spot on my wishlist - the Volume brooch, designed by Tatty Devine (can be found in the Curiosity Shoppe). It will neither amplify nor shut anyone up but it makes up for it with its cuteness.

I love that it goes up to 11 :) that's probably my level of discussion...

Imagine how...

...sending e-mails without using a keyboard would be like. It might not be the same technology depicted by George Orwell in his novel 1984 but Gmail Motion surely steps up the challeneges.

Google launched a video talking about Gmail Motion, a way to control your Gmail with your body. The system uses your computer's built in webcam and Google's patented spatial tracking techonlogy to detect your movements and transalte them into meaningful characters and commands.

It's a funny April fool's joke definately worthed to have a look at. This is one of the many reasons I truly love Google :).
