1930's take on fashion for 2000


I don't think they realised how drastically things were going to change for the future, but the ideas they did come up with were probably outrageous for them and would certainly be crazy for 2009. Who knows maybe a designer will watch this video and really like their ideas, I might like a suit with a telephone in the middle though.

Brian Dettmer - Book Autopsies




Artist Brian Dettmer seals, then cuts into older dictionaries, encyclopedias, textbooks, science and engineering books etc, exposing select images and text to create intricate three-dimensional derivative works that reveal new or alternative interpretations of the books. The final result is a fascinating three dimensional glimpse into, not only the book it's carved out but also the whole process of print. More of his work can be found on his blog here.

Time-Lapse Satellite Images



Now that satellite imagery has been around in the public domain for a while it is possible to create time-lapse videos to reveal the shocking truth about how we effect the earth as humans. Wired magazine has posted several of these time-lapse satellite images on there web site including a rather disturbing deforestation of Rondônia (a state of Brazil) which really puts into perspective the reasons for recycling.

To see more have a look at Wired magazine's article.
