Design Synthesis and Creative Thinking

Jon Kolko - Design Synthesis from Interaction Design Association on Vimeo.
Definitely worth a watch.
I found this just after I moved to NYC as I was traipsing about the design-related portion of the internet, and found it plainly fascinating. I’m trying to use it to help me frame “What I Do” so that I might explain it better […]

Bobby McFerrin and the Pentatonic Scale

World Science Festival 2009: Bobby McFerrin Demonstrates the Power of the Pentatonic Scale from World Science Festival on Vimeo.
I hate to be a malcontent, especially given that this is ostensibly a marketing blog, but this sort of thing is about a million times more interesting than the marketing drivel that gets posted to the web every […]

MTV’s Taildaters

Stay in School from Clay Parker Jones on Vimeo.
Because I’ve never shared this video on this blog (you’ve maybe seen it on my Tumblr, Vimeo or even on the video cassette that I still own), I’d like to take a few moments to embarrass myself. In 2002—my sophomore year of college—I was on an MTV program […]

Little Red Riding Hood, in Infographics

Slagsmålsklubben - Sponsored by destiny from Tomas Nilsson on Vimeo.
Not a whole lot to say here, other than:

This is amazing.
This is how I want to present my ideas to people.
This is a lot harder than it looks. Seems simple, but it’s an epic story told by a master information designer/animator.

Adam’s Letters: Opens June 23

That’s Nathan on the left.

We started with LA. That’s Adam.

There’s me, with the A.

It was super-duper hot. This is where it started to get out of hand.

The E was getting a little out of hand.

But it turned out okay.
  Pretty.

The final piece will spell out the word “CELEBRATE”. The title is still TBD, but it’ll open on June 23, and you should […]

Ask Focus on Energy

I wanted to take a moment this morning to go back through the last project I worked on at my last place, which happened to go live on my last day in Chicago. Not only did it go up on time (Jim Vogel is the world’s best project guy), but it’s probably the piece of […]

Site Preview: Riding Resource

A while back, a couple of friends in Atlanta called to ask if my buddies and I could help them with a site they were launching called Riding Resource. Word has it, it’s hard as hell to find a quality place to ride horses today despite the omnipotence of Google. After a load of hard […]

Vimeo Plus

Introducing Vimeo Plus! from Vimeo Staff on Vimeo.
I post a lot of videos on this blog, and when I do, I prefer to use Vimeo. It’s fast, it has a community that is usually pretty supportive (unlike YouTube, which we all know gets pretty vicious), and it does HD. On top of that, the player is […]
