I guess this has been there for sometime, but for those of us not in NYC, like me, this is the first time I see this interactive billboard meant to promote Adobe CS3. I wish they’d have something like this here in manila.. or rather, I wish someone would pay me good money to [...]

Jellio Lite Table and Tableportation

Thursday, July 19th, 2007

Those look like LEDs to me. At first when I saw it I thought, “Someone ripped-off Tableportation!” But upon reading closer, I saw Jellio lite table use gigantic color pegs that light up. So the interaction is actually different. One you pick-up and insert the other you just touch. Tableportation [...]

Mmm.. notebooks

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

Aside from the books I purchased in Singapore, I managed to get myself a couple of MUJI notebooks these were an easy purchase versus the expensive Moleskine ones. Most designers have some obsession about notebooks and sketchpads, I guess because that’s where we keep our valuable ideas. So it makes sense that it [...]

Microsoft Surface

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

Just to add to the noise generated by the ‘All Things Digital‘ (D5) conference.. I am fascinated by Microsoft’s new hardware product: Surface.  Surface is a multi-touch screen table that seems to have its own OS and built-in applications.

The product seems to be Microsoft’s answer to Apple’s multi-touch iPhone, albeit a big clunky delayed copy [...]

Cane Picio by Patray Lui

Saturday, April 28th, 2007

Good friend and fellow ivrean Patray Lui has come out with a new site called Cane Picio. The site features illustrations by Patray on the adventures of the dog Picio.
