design | Typographers’ handwritings

OK, I’m kind of on a Notcot roll, but here’s another cool posting about how typographers write. Some of them have really interesting handwriting. I wish I can write that well.
music | Audi Symphony

The result of the computerized instrumentation of Audi A8-related sounds and the orchestration sounds pretty cool. Each video has a different tone to it.
photo | Micro-Lives

These pictures of microfauna done by National Geographics really makes me think this is art, not biology. Does this mean God’s every creation is art? Or is it just the photographer who’s at fault?
magazine | Secret Message for Readers

This guy has put a lot of work into hiding a secret message into a magazine. Every bold letter in the articles in one issue spelled out something funny… And consequently got him fired. But I must say it was impressive of him.
ads | Catchy Phrases
Go check out the 100 most recognized taglines from commercials ever. I didn’t know that some of the catchphrases were around for that long. For example, “Grrrrreat!” by Kellogg started in the 50s.
movies | 07.2008
1. Wall-E is awesome. Everyone should go see it. And the Apple-related jokes and inserts are all appropriate.
2. I found out that there exists a movie that entirely consists of a single 90-minute shot. Called Russian Ark. 7.1 on IMDB and 88% on RT further solidifies my conviction that it should be appropriated by myself.

The trailer was hard to find, but it’s cinematography reminded me of Brannagh’s Hamlet. And I have some odd fascination towards 19th-century royal glamour. It turns me on.
ad | Ford Focus commercial

A cool ad that shows an orchestration of instruments made with car parts. I’m assuming they’re from a Ford Focus. But sadly I still don’t think it makes Focus a cool ride. Scion xD? Maybe.
home deco | CB2

If you are a young, working professional who would like to check out fillings for your new pad then CB2 is worth browsing through. Crate and Barrel’s sister brand has most of the essential furniture and accessories, functional and well-designed, in stock. I bought a bed frame from here, and I’m pretty sure I will be buying some servingwares here too soon (once I get my first paycheck).
movie | Note by Note

Note by Note: The Making of Steinway L1037
…Great documentary. I just watched it on Tuesday. If your parents made you play piano at one point, you’ll see the instrument in perhaps a different angle now.

I think I can recognize at least 80% of the characters here. What about you? Some of them are absolutely adorable.
