Fubiz™: Bikes Never Crash Alone.
Clever. Makes the point.
BBC News: Ferrari recalls Italia cars after reports of fires.
”Ferrari said the problem had been traced to adhesive used in the wheel-arch assemblies. In certain circumstances, the glue can begin to overheat, smoke and even catch fire, a spokesman told BBC News.” Not exactly what you pay a quarter-mill for ...
Bike EXIF: BMW R100.
You’d have to reframe it, to make an old BMW look like anything other than what it is.
AE Tuts+: Time Saving Tips Nobody Wrote Down.
If you don’t know to start with a solid audio track, I pity you.
ephemera: save the bunny …
Cartype: Emblems by number.
So, a Trabant 601 beats an Olds 442? Not quite.
The Coolist: Bentley R Type Concept.
I kinda like it. From the 3/4 view, it looks like it has a lazy eye ... like a cleaned up version of Jack Elam.
Vimeo: AICP Southwest Sponsor Reel.
Enjoyable mix of reality and digital.
The Coolist: Lotus Evora S Revealed.
Sorry, you folks lost me with this design. Back end’s still OK, but the side/front ... generic. About as exciting as a vacuum cleaner.
TrendLand: Bleu de Chanel, by Martin Scorsese.
The man knows how to build expectation. A significant cut above the video dreck we see lately.
Fubiz™: History Channel.
Do I detect a bit of Old Spice video technique here?
Nomad Tent Company: The Ténéré Expedition Tent, 2 Man Adventure Motorcycle Tent
Smart. 13 pounds, packs to sleeping bag size. Linked for my upcoming world motorcycle tour (in my dreams, anyway).
Bike EXIF: Moto Guzzi Le Mans.
Another Guzzi custom, nice application of chrome.
The Coolist: Serge Mendzhiyskogo Collage Photography.
This is a very welcome fresh take on collage photography. I like it.
The Coolist: Defakto One Hand Watches.
This is exactly why LED watches left me cold. They were neat gadgets for a while, but it’s infinitely cooler to say “half past” or “quarter till” than “7:32 and 16 seconds”.
The Art of Manliness: The Manly Tradition of the Pocket Notebook.
When in antique stores, I’ll need to pay more attention to these.
Hemmings Find of the Day: 1977 AMC Matador.
Noone can really say that AMC manufactured generic looking cars. My preference, when I was a kid? The Javelin, with the curvy wheel wells. I thought it was SO cool.
NOWNESS: A Continuous Lean: On the Green.
Michael Williams Visits the Concours d’Elegance 2010 at Pebble Beach Golf Links. Photos. Gorgeous photos. Dude’s got an eye.
Be Sportier: Bufalino Small Camper Vehicles.
For solo excursions only. [Hey, Be Sportier, please drop those top-of-the-post ads, will ya?]
Travel + Leisure: World’s Strangest Vending Machines.
Catch a live lobster? In a vending machine? Where’s PETA?
Be Sportier: Terrafugia The Transition Flying Cars Are The Future?
I have a feeling the rudder-pedal/gas-pedal layout (and/or transition) will be the source of more problems than Toyota’s woes. Still pretty cool, nevertheless.
Bike EXIF: Ducati Sport 1000 custom.
I know you get tired of hearing my oohs and aahs over nice cars and motorcycles (ignoring their environmental impact), but I can’t help it. Oh, yeah.
Michel Gagné: Sensology.
Very cool. Created in rather old-school fashion. Reminiscent of “Fantasia.”
Motion Graphics Served: Timmy Learns About Advertising & Pyschology.
Clever. Vintage-y effects to communicate concepts.
DP Review: Canon develops world’s first 120 megapixel APS-H CMOS sensor.
”Compared with Canon’s highest-resolution commercial CMOS sensor of the same size, comprising approximately 16.1 million pixels, the newly developed sensor features a pixel count that, at approximately 120 million pixels, is nearly 7.5 times larger and offers a 2.4-fold improvement in resolution.” Astonishing how fast the pixel counts are climbing.
