To gange Andreasen, og den ene kan flyve. Brian har fotograferet det.

Det er også den globalisering

Sunday, October 30th, 2005

Hvordan er det at være blind, og alligevel se en forfærdelig udvikling i boligblokken gennem 48 år, hvor Dansk Folkeparti er sund fornuft? Hvilke udenlandske quiz-programmer er i øvrigt de bedste – og hvilken interesse i samfundets udvikling har man når der er mindre end ti år tilbage?

I arkiverne fandt vi en udskrift fra et københavnsk ring ind-radioprogram, der svarer på netop de spørgsmål, og tegner en lille firkant på et stort stykke ternet papir om et Danmark med hvid stok, mad fra kommunen og nervøs forundring.

More malls, less e-shopping?

Wednesday, October 19th, 2005

Mr. Ito writes

The US is way behind Europe in the amount of online shopping (ranking 11 worldwide), perhaps because mall shopping is so much easier than shopping in a European city. This encourages Europeans to shop online.

I’m not so sure. We have lots of malls, and we have lots of people thinking we have too many.

Du skal ikke

Monday, October 17th, 2005

bedømme en advokat på hans dørskilt. Hvis du ikke har lyst. Hos Juraindex.dk er det lige præcis det du kan . Når du så har bedømt, kan du jo passende hente billedet af dørskiltet og bruge det som baggrundstapet – fås i størrelserne 800, 1024 og 1600. Illustrationen til højre er en af de mange Photoshop-varianter, som de fleste advokater har ladet fremstille. Kun advokaterne selv ved nogenlunde hvorfor.

Are all garden sites green? Yes.

Sunday, October 16th, 2005

The Color Code project gives colors to nouns based on images on websites.

The artwork is an interactive map of more than 33,000 words. Each word has been assigned a color based on the average color of images found by a search engine. The words are then grouped by meaning. The resulting patterns form an atlas of our lexicon.

Attention span vs. attention sweet spot and something about hay

Thursday, October 6th, 2005

Continuing the list of what’s web 1.0 vs. what’s web 2.0, there’s the attention span vs. the attention sweet spot span.

Web 1.0 was 7 plus/minus 2 items, web 2.0 is 2 plus/minus 1 item.

So, how to determine which 2 plus/minus 1 items? Usage percentages, maybe. A mouse is for left clicking 75% of the time, a screen is for viewing 100% of the time, a radio is for turning on and off 90% of the time. Google.com is for searching 80% of the time. On an Adaptive Path workshop in July, Peter Merholz pointed out the simplicity on a Farm Service Agency website, Hay Net: Need hay. Have hay.

The all-embracing Web 2.0 framework is here

Thursday, October 6th, 2005

Explaining a web evolution requires several pages. But why not explain an abstract idea with an abstract framework? Web 2.0 matrix does that.

Flockserfs

Reading blogs around Flock is like a live reading of Microserfs, – in a 2.0 kind of way.

MP3 blog to earmark

Sunday, October 2nd, 2005

You’ve got one week to get your ears on the 12-inch version of “Lazarus” by The Boo Radleys. Great music from the just three days old MP3 hugger blog.

Bonus info: In Danish, ‘Hugger’ means ‘snatcher’.

Music review namedropping with style

Sunday, October 2nd, 2005

Some music reviewers want to avoid namedropping and instead describe the music itself, letting the reader make his own references. This is an exception.

Page France: “Jesus”

genre: indie

How cool would it be if Page France went on tour with Sage Francis and got cage dancers and took rage stances? Alas, this band’s a far cry from the hippity-hop: Michael Nau has hijacked a death cab of cuteness straight to one of Sufjan’s states, and damn if the results don’t perfectly approximate a more TV-show-soundtrack palatable version of mid-nineties sentimental bedroom psych, right down to neutrally milky hotel-suite recastings of the resonance of Christ’s corpse.

Pitchfork Media

Get the track from Said the Grammophone while it’s still online.

And while you’re there, why not give all the songs an iTunesery spin? “Oh, nice, sure, but I’m really too busy to click all those mp3 links”. You’re doing great, we appreciate your effort. Download all mp3s from one page with the Flashgot Firefox extension and get. Back. To. Work.
