Nike, call me!

I made some posters promoting Nike's women's 6.0 shoe for fun today. The shoes are supposed to look like a Firecracker Popsicle, and the font references the promotional font on the Firecracker box. The 6.0s seem to have this fun/energetic air to them, which made me think of summertime and the ice cream man. Nike, hit me up!

Fujifilm's 3d camera!

So, this camera is currently only a prototype, but sounds promising. It has the ability to take 3d photos and videos, with the capability to preview images in real time using the cameras oscillating LCD screen. The only problem with this tech is that the file format isn't standardized, thus not accessible for all computer users. Another issue with the camera is that the photos/videos are expensive to print, and impossible to view in all their 3d glory on a conventional computer monitor. In the future monitors that support this kind of viewing may become available. Right now, Fujifilm is work with Adobe to include photo editing capabilities within a future version of Photoshop, which makes the possibility of wide-spread usability of this product seem like it could really happen!

Chacaron = Hilarious

The song has gained popularity on the Internet because of its nonsense lyrics (which despite sounding vaguely Spanish, are nothing but gibberish) and odd music video, with an excerpt featured on many sites. Andy’s mumbled vocals were originally laid down as a rough skit with a view to writing "proper" lyrics later but because many loved what he had recorded, they decided to keep the original version.
