wefeelfine.org

the previous post reminded me of something only vaguely related to architecture - in that it was in METROPOLIS mag a while ago and I meant to share it... more poetic & utterly unique moments serendipitously created on the internet... wefeelfine.org is a site that matches a variety of feelings, conditions, locations etc from blogs and presents an utterly irreplicable moment - except for the snapshots, which include tagged images I assume. I actually replicated one below.

they are little snippets, sentiments and thoughts from a location, feeling, weather condition etc that unites people. I did Boston and was reminded of the unique character of these folks, and why, at the end of the day, I still do love this place and call it home.

watch out for the porno though. it seems to be unfiltered. gross.

knitting the internet

some ingenious people have once again tapped into the poetic ephemera of the internet, weaving RSS feeds into fabric and making kinda dumpy but super awesome sweatshirts out of it. what a lovely and fantastic idea - thanks again, architectradure, for sharing. (I'm going to direct you to her blog so she gets the cred.)

a fascinating exploration of the unimagined mass production of almost unreplicable objects: the machine will never create two of the same patters.

chairs!

after a long absence from the blogoshpere, I've finally got the time to comb through all that I have missed and found these chairs on one of my favorite blogs, architectradure. I thought they were kind of funky and lighthearted and I am always struck by fully modern ideas within traditional packaging - there is something so egalitarian about being accepting of popular taste and using it as a tool to make innovation immediately accessible to everyone... anyway, chairs!
