Font By Toyota
An amazing video on the Toyota site where a group of interactive artists used motion tracking, a car and an empty warehouse to create a new font. The car was tagged with four different color coded trackers and used an overhead camera to convert its motion into shapes. A custom piece of software then converted [...]

Stupid Name. Cool Brushes!
The title says it all. Brusheezy is a great site for downloading free Photoshop brushes and patterns and voting on your favorites. It’s a mixed bag as far as quality, and there is no categorization or searching, but all in all there are a lot of great sets if you are patient. Get free Photoshop [...]

Marcus Buck Photography
Do yourself a favor and dig into this simple Flash website featuring the beautiful photography of Marcus Buck.

Such beautiful images.

You can even hook into your Flickr account and have a differnt image on each card [...]

His retrospective at MOMA was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen, and his show of new work at PaceWildenstein in Chelsea showed the breadth of [...]
