Nike Graphic Studio: Outside the Box, a set on Flickr.
The third annual Nike Graphic Studio had its opening night on Saturday, October 13th, 2012 in Portland, Oregon. Veteran Nike designers flexed their skills and created seemingly endless pieces of Nike-inspired art….From East to West

The long awaited release of 24/25P firmware for the 5D2 enchanted me of shooting videos with it. So for the idea of an initial video project, I formed a thought that if I start my journey from sunrise and end it at sunset on an ordinary day, what actions, events and activity my eyes are gonna witness in this bracket of approx 12-14 hours. So that is what I simply tried to implement in this short film. via Vimeo
This video is absolutely stunning. If you’re interested in more details about the equipment used, check out the link I posted above.
Interesting juxtaposition
ART VS GRAFFITI.
“Artist suspends real clouds in the middle of the room: That’s not photoshop; that’s an actual cloud hovering inside an actual room. Artist Berndnaut Smilde merges art and science to create small man-made clouds that exist — albeit for just a moment — indoors. Smilde uses a fog machine to make the actual clouds, but also carefully regulates the humidity and temperature. Even so, these installations exists for a mere moment before dissipating inside the room. If you’re not there in the moment, then you only get to experience these brief scientific sculptures as photographs.” via io9 Honestly, my head kind of hurts from thinking about this more than anything. It’s a trip, but pretty cool. I’m now waiting for someone to say they’re, “on cloud 9,” and swiftly faceplant, ha. More pictures are available here,

“With most of our music now in a digital format, neatly contained on our mobile phones and iPods, many of us have no doubt got lots of old CDs stacked up in garages, waiting to become miniature frisbees or coffee coasters or museum relics from a bygone era. But rather than letting them lie there in their boxes, unloved and gathering dust, why not put them to good use by smashing them up and turning them into attractive animal sculptures?” - The Creator’s Project
This is a fantastic (and doable!) idea. The way the bottom of CDs refract light take each sculpture to a whole new level.
