fabric of folly: December 2010
I used to blog quite a bit about music discovery apps but then Spotify came along, I moved from the BBC's Audio & Music Interactive department (to its television equivalent) and general app fatigue set in... Then, a couple of week's ago, online streaming service thesixtyone released its Awe ditorium iPad app and I was shaken out of my music discovery lethargy by an app of such elegance and utility that it's become almost a constant companion, introducing another ambient screen into my life (but hopefully not forcing me to buy another iPad... ;) Like many of the best interfaces, none of its paradigms are particularly new or revolutionary - it just assembles existing paradigms with such grace that it feels fresh and delightful, displaying a number of those small but significant interface touches that I've banged on about in the past.
What is more beautiful than dew drops or rain drops on flower petals? Maybe puppies waking up from a lazy nap? Enjoy these whimsical photos of flowers with water drops.

Lies and Fairy Tales: Victoria's Secret
...Deep down inside we want to believe they still do In our secretest heart, it's our favourite part of the story Let's just admit we all want to make it too Ever ever after If we just don't get it our own way Ever ever after It may only be a wish away Start a new fashion, wear your heart on your sleeve Gorgeous photos from Bardot in Blue Sometimes you reach what's real just by making believe Unafraid, unashamed There is joy to be claimed in this world You even might wind up being glad to be you Ever ever after Though the world will tell you it's not smart

'50's fashion...
I thought you might enjoy seeing some of these vintage fashion photos as much as I did. Most of the photos were taken in the 1950's, and so many of the styles could easily be worn today. Some might need a little updating here or there, but the majority of them are still just as feminine, lovely, and classic as they were back then.

image from the Underwood Photo Archives I have a rather special announcement to make! If you’ve wandered the rooms of the (blog)house you may have noticed that one room seems, well, a little empty, be that my Artist Studio (apologies for the funny language, I’m currently reading Robinson Crusoe be that written by such one Daniel Defoe who writes in the tongue of the 17th century man, viz. almost unreadable English). So although the Artist Studio has been a little vacant, it is only because I have been busy writing and planning my next art project and I am very pleased to reveal that it will be collective and it involves ALL OF YOU. So now, I invite you to come for a little wander with me as I pour my heart out and tell all…

Three is a Trend: February 2011
Handmade Hyperlinks German designer Maria Fischer has created a book Traumgedanken ( Thoughts on dreams ) about dream theory in which coloured threads connect excerpts of the text, like real world hyperlinks. On her website , Fischer explains that these threads express 'the confusion and fragileness of dreams'. Via Engadget and Maria Fischer I think this beautifully demonstrates the interconnectedness of information online in comparison to the more linear format of print. Punchd points Punchd is a new app that means you can get a loyalty stamp on your smartphone instead of using a paper reward card which is easily lost or forgotten. After downloading the app, you can link it to nearby venues that accept Punchd, activate it at the venue using the in-store QR Code and then automatically have your loyalty card 'punchd' whenever you visit.
