When Molly Nilsson played in Cork she made me feel like I was in an episode of Twin Peaks. Which makes me wonder where this photo of her feet was taken. You can buy her albums here or find her on FaceBook here

Would Andy Warhol love this or hate it?
Feb 6th, 2012
This 5 hour slow-mo video piece of model Adriana Lima waving a flag was released as a promo for an ad in the Superbowl.
5 hour. Promo. For an ad.
It has 278,759 views on YouTube and plenty of tweets so as a marketing tactic for Kia Motors I guess it’s working, and it’s apparently most popular with the male demographic which leads me to believe that generally speaking people are appreciating it for something other than any similarity to Andy Warhol’s Empire (clip here).
Seeing as Andy also allegedly once said a good photo was one that was in focus and of a famous person, I’m guessing he’d love this.
Lego, Dinosaurs, creativity, and the youth of today
Feb 2nd, 2012
Saw this Lego product today while browsing Lego toys, and it got me musing over the ever increasing move toward ready made pieces and away from the old school bricks I loved when I was growing up. Admittedly, even the Lego I loved had horses and certain Space Lego pieces that weren’t strictly old school… but where should the line be drawn to encourage creativity in the use of Lego and not just prescribed scenarios?
Also that’s not a skirt that’s a belt, and do they really call that noise music?
Stop Internet censorship, Stop SOPA Ireland
Jan 30th, 2012
Over the weekend I gave the Stop SOPA Ireland campaign a small bit of help, putting together some banners and timeline covers… I can’t take a huge amount of credit for the work since Sabrina Dent had the design direction set by the site and the source files ready to go – but I think they look well and it felt good to lend a hand to the cause :)
If you’re not up to speed on what Stop SOPA Ireland is, check out the Stop SOPA Ireland website, read the briefing document or watch the short exchange in the Dáil below.
If you’d like to get a FaceBook timeline cover to spread the word you can grab them here.
Google, you big web bully you, hands off my design
Jan 25th, 2012
What are the implications of Google’s “page layout algorithm” and could it herald a whole new way in which Google intends to dictate how websites should be designed, developed and function?
