We take a look into not only visual design like graphic design and product design, but design of culture, information and more. This blog is called epedestrian because I have never considered the web a place where we actually "surf", it's much more like a contemplative walk through the ideas, visions and points of view of others. When we peruse the web epedestrians is what we become.Craighttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06008854814280963268noreply@blogger.comBlogger184125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26691349.post-31833965158094391912013-08-10T23:21:00.000-04:002013-08-10T23:21:18.676-04:00AFROPUNK Music Festival<iframe width="853" height="480" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/yBl52yROHS0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

AFROPUNK is an influential community of young, gifted people of all backgrounds who speak through music, art, film, comedy, fashion and more. Originating with the 2003 documentary that highlighted a Black presence in the American punk scene, it is a platform for the alternative and experimental. Remaining at the core of its mission are the punk principles of DIY aesthetics, radical thought and social non-conformity. AFROPUNK is a voice for the unwritten, unwelcome and unheard-of.

To promote the launch of its Sync fragrances, sportswear brand PUMA engaged the help of choreographer Super Dave and 25 other freestyle dancers to create a ‘dance language’. <br /><br />Named the ‘<a href="http://www.pumadancedictionary.com/#">Puma Dance Dictionary</a>’, the interactive site lets users send messages to their friends using dance moves. <br /><br />Words such as “cat”, “love”, “Monday”, “I”, “scream”, “pizza” and “hot tub” get a dance move each and are danced out in video, which users can pick and choose to create their messages. <br /><br />Users can choose from 11 basic sentences, and replace italicized words with various given options in the sentences, and share the message with their friends via Facebook, Twitter and email. <br /><br />Is a ‘danced out’ message cooler than a text-based one? <div>

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T4LWI390ctg/UFVelNUvXcI/AAAAAAAALgY/LI1iKinLF4c/s1600/1.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T4LWI390ctg/UFVelNUvXcI/AAAAAAAALgY/LI1iKinLF4c/s400/1.jpeg" width="318" /></a>The scope and stature of Ruth Asawa's work are brought into brilliant focus in this superb book, created to accompany the first complete retrospective of the artist's career. Beginning with her earliest works--drawings and paintings created in the 1940s while studying at Black Mountain College--this beautifully illustrated volume traces Asawa's trajectory as a pioneering modernist sculptor who is recognized nationally for her wire sculpture, public commissions, and activism in education and the arts. The Sculpture of Ruth Asawa establishes the importance of Asawa's work within the larger national context of artists who redefined art as a way of thinking and acting in the world rather than as merely a stylistic practice. A chronology and a collection of essays by noted scholars highlight Asawa's complex relationship to American art and Asian American history and provide engrossing biographical information.</div>
<span style="text-align: start;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;">In her lifelong experimentations with wire, especially its capacity to balance open and closed forms, Asawa invented a powerful new vocabulary. Committed to enhancing the quality of daily life through art produced within the home, she contributed a unique perspective to the formal explorations of twentieth-century abstract sculpture. Working in a variety of non-traditional media, Asawa performed a series of uncanny metamorphoses, leading viewers into a deeper awareness of natural forms by revealing their structural properties. Through her artistic practice, Asawa reconnects with the Buddhist ethos of her parents, transforming the commonplace into metaphors for life processes themselves.</span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div class="p1">
The Jaguar XKX concept car by Bahrain-based design studio <a href="http://www.skyrill.com/"><span class="s1"><b>Skyrill</b></span></a><b> </b>and Albanian designer <a href="http://www.marinmyftiu.com/"><span class="s1"><b>Marin Myftiu</b></span></a>, is a totally new take on the classic Jag we all have grown to appreciate over the years. Ali Almossawi, co-founder of Skyrill, explained that “the concept tries to revive the glorious design lines of the brand, combining fresh solutions, a unique, new aerodynamics, tailored around the electrical elements of the power system as well as cutting-edge energy feedback.”</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p3">
Aesthetically speaking, the designers wanted to avoid the “heaviness associated with many of today’s muscle cars, including actual Jaguar models.” Instead, the team decided to recreate a thin, elegant profile, while still showing off all the extra power and technological improvements. The XKX’s profile is an organic flow of lines that look almost like the company’s “pouncing cat” logo on wheels.</div>
<div class="p3">
<br /></div>
<div class="p3">
Over on the technological side, the electronic vehicle has carefully designed aerodynamics, where air is deflected away from the engine and around the car itself, said to be 60 per cent more power efficient. Also, the entire car body is covered by a layer of piezoelectric cells. when stimulated by<br />
the pressure of air flowing over them during vehicle movement, the units produced electricity that is fed into the vehicle’s battery. Genius!</div>

For decades, this Schwinn-riding cultural anthropologist has been obsessively and inventively chronicling fashion trends and high society charity soirées for the Times Style section in his columns "On the Street" and "Evening Hours." Documenting uptown fixtures (Wintour, Tom Wolfe, Brooke Astor, David Rockefeller—who all appear in the film out of their love for Bill), downtown eccentrics and everyone in between, Cunningham's enormous body of work is more reliable than any catwalk as an expression of time, place and individual flair. In turn, Bill Cunningham New York is a delicate, funny and often poignant portrait of a dedicated artist whose only wealth is his own humanity and unassuming grace.</div><div id="eow-description" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><br />

Mr. O’Reilly is an Irish born animator working in Berlin.The External World is his newest work; released in late 2010, it has just made its way to Vimeo and the blogosphere this week. I think it is a good example of the good things that happen when person gets an idea in their head and works hard to bring that idea to life.<div><br />

Not wanting to string LA along, he has decided to firmly break it off through a graphic billboard series posted on the famous streets of his first love.</span><br />

The amazing looking structure is 68,000 square feet and holds the largest collection of the legendary surrealist painters works. The works are held on the 3rd floor with the massive concrete structure surrounded by two glass atriums that will let in some amazing natural light from the Sunshine State. Architectural design firm HOK did an amazing job, to say the least.<br />

Looking at the new W hotel makes us think we’ve found the perfect place for it. We have all been witness to the explosion of the W Hotels around the world, we’re just glad the glam hospitality company is still putting design first. for the second time, W has hired on famed designer <a href="http://www.patriciaurquiola.com/">Patricia Urquiola</a> to stylize their latest retreat on the Puerto Rican <a href="http://www.wvieques.com/">Island of Vieques</a>. Urquilo dressed the resort in various species of woods all planked together juxtaposed with explosions of feel good colors. Though much of the resort is styled in the designers famous furniture collections, there are new design elements such as lighting made from ropes, mesh screens, and massive decor reaching out from walls.<br />

There’s something almost magical when seeing the design process itself shared through these sculptural experiments, especially when they share the sketches and organic inspiration that leads them there. Works of art being displayed along side concept cars and current cars fill you with curiosity and open ended inspiration of what the future may hold. Mercedes Aesthetics No. 2 just debuted at Detroit Auto Show.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I love this quote from Mercedes Head of Design, Gorden Wagener, “Inspiration is the pre-condition for the calm, coherent yet passionately emotional design of our cars. In the interior sculpture Aesthetics No. 2 we have allowed creative fantasy to develop freely without constraints.” Regarding sculpture details, “On a scale of 1.5 to 1 the sculpture measures 18.3 x 6 x 8.5 feet. The finely wrought frame painted in alubeam Liquid Metal is light and strong; the white seating landscapes look like ivory.” Take a look at the inspiration behind and the design process that went into it… as well as the very cool final sculpture!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
