Hyperrealistic paintings from the Korean artist Kwang-Ho Lee. The colors are so true and the texture seems so real!
Those paintings were exhibited last spring at the Kukje Gallery in Seoul.
If you are as amazed as I am and know more about this Cactus serie, you’ll find some technical details and many more pictures on Designboom.
First seen on but does it float.
Pretty typeface animated!! Wouldn’t it be awesome if typefoundries started to release animated typefaces??
Scott Belsky offers some advice on how to bring great ideas to life in this article from GOOD. In the article he mentions something really interesting, “Idea-to-idea syndrome is the tendency to launch new ideas while still executing other ideas. As soon as an idea becomes an active project, we become burdened by the minutia of execution. Long days and late nights cause us to get lost in what I have come to call the “project plateau”—the part of a project when excitement and energy run low and the end is still out of sight. The quickest escape from the project plateau is simple. Conceive a new idea. Immediately, when you get excited about something new and shiny, your hopes lift as your creative juices kick in. But, as a result, your previous idea is left stranded in the project plateau amidst other carcasses of abandoned ideas.” Do you guys feel like this happens to you more often than not? Read more here on how to make good ideas a reality.
Interesting quick read about a software that allows multiple folks to “design” a set of given objects. Or to make them better.
This goes along with many of our previous crowd-sourcing debates and the end of our professions. And many of you may disagree with such a thing. But this got me thinking. It might be kind of neat to have some kind of way to simultaneously work on a file. If I had say, InDesign open and I could simultaneously work on a file with a trusted designer friend, it just may yield some pretty rewarding results. Perhaps this already exists in some capacity? I know that screensharing may facilitate such a thing. But I wonder if somebody were to take that experience one step further and create a truly multi-designer interface that would allow for two or more people to truly create something inconceivable by one person?
Anyways, just some random thoughts. Have a read as time permits.
