So working for GM sometimes bores me, I mean cars are cars. Four wheels gas etc. etc. Once in a while I get stoked on the possibility that they might do something that is totally unique for them to do, in this case its the GMC PAD.
IFTF has a little blurb about this new ultra conceptual vehicle, which one day could offer a mobile living solution for citys such as LA.

Well Matt Mickey did not formally announce this, but Intuition relocating their services a street up from where they are at right now, which is a huge improvement. Matt took me to the office when it was pitch black and here are some of the Exclusive™ photos of the inside…it’s VERY exclusive.

1st Ave Machine just completed a new spot for the new Adidas TUNIT shoes. Makes you wish you were a robot who could fly around in little pieces and play soccer really well (well at least that’s what it did for me) Check out their other work as well, they’re amazing when it comes to compositing CG with live action.
This is HUGE. For weeks now people have been getting their intel based macs, now apple goes and busts this out. I’m by no means a windows supporter but I have virtual PC on my powerbook for one reason only and thats that nasty IE browser for web development.

I’ve been a long time fan of this interdisciplinary design firm, and despite how sexist it may sound, it made me like them even more to learn that two women founded it.

As some of you may know, February brought a re-stock of what I believe is possibly one of the most beautiful sneakers ever to be designed – the Nike HTM Air Woven. Originally released in 2002 at under a dozen tier zero accounts worldwide, this set is from the same batch (all individually numbered out of 1500).

One thing’s for sure, this isn’t a re-release, more of a “Hey, we’ve just found a couple hundred pairs of Woven’s, let’s send them out to a few stores!”
