A Day Made of Glass – VIDEO

Tom Cledwyn

Exciting? Scary? Neither word can be discounted from the way in which we must all inevitably be feeling about the digitalisation of our world. This video brought to you by Coring is a prime example of one of those ‘hoverboard’ moments. One in which your operational self either arouses or diminishes into a intimidated worthlessness. Either way, this Minority Report-esque future is on it’s way. Let just be thankful it doesn’t include with it Tom Cruise.

The Tyranny of Choice – Independent Article November, 2011

Tom Cledwyn

We were recently asked by our good friends at Find Invest Grow to write an article for the Independent’s ‘Young Entrepreneur’ section. Given free range to come up with a topic, we decided that discussing what role ‘Choice’ played in our work and our process may be an interesting starting point. Perhaps interesting isn’t the right word but it would be great to hear your thoughts.

5 TED talks all designers must see…….

Tom Cledwyn

It’s difficult not to spend hours on TED’s website. One talk turns into three or four and all of a sudden you’re behind or late for whatever it is you’re really meant to be doing but at least with procrastination of this form you come away more informed. More interesting.

Amongst the thousands of talks available, there are some real gems specifically for designers. Here, we’ve tried to give you 5 talks (in no particular order) that will give you something to think about in preparation for yet another fast approaching working week.

Siri – Apple iPhone 4S

Tom Cledwyn

Siri was founded in 2007 by  Dag Kittlaus, Adam Cheyer, and Tom Gruber, and Norman Winarsky and after two rounds of funding was bought by Apple in April 2010. The latest iPhone launch may have disappointed many – but check out how Apple’s purchase is being put to use and how it could play a role in your life…..

In memory of Steve Jobs – A must see speech

Tom Cledwyn

“Steve was among the greatest of American innovators – brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it. The world has lost a visionary.”

Barack Obama, 2011

From the green green grass of Cambridge to the hustle & bustle of London

Will Donoghue – Latest member of Mylo Design 

Within the last couple of months I have traded the quiet life of a freelance designer in Cambridge for the hustle and bustle of central London. Working beneath  the railway arches off Rivington St you will now find me tucked away behind the night club Cargo on in Archway 462 next to the Black Rat Press.

A place of your own

Ben Aldred

Being a newbie to having a personal website, it got me thinking about when it becomes necessary for a person to have an online presence beyond their profiles on social and professional networks such as Facebook and Linkedin.

UNTHINK – It’s FU time, is it?

Tom Cledwyn

Soon to launch, UNTHINK describes itself as a “social revolution” rather than a social network. They’ve supposedly kicked back against the tyranny of modern day social networks and the say they have our own privacy.

gigwalk

A new era of Crowd Sourcing

Tom Cledwyn

With good noises appearing left, right and centre - Gigwalk is definitely worth a look into for an insight into how many may look to their phones as a possible revenue stream. It’s an extremely interesting model which has been better summarised by Alice Truong in the New York Journal this week.

A swim too far – The English Channel 2010

Tom Cledwyn

Short post from a Channel Swim attempt late last year in which we (Ali Worlidge and myself) pulled the plug after 18 miles. Sadly. It was cold and it was wet. The good news is that we recovered and managed to raise over £4,000 for the London Air Ambulance
