In Connecticut, USA, police raced to a scene after a resident reported the terrifying sight of 15 young women, dressed only in bikinis but covered in blood and shuffling like zombies. A calendar turned out to be the source of the outbreak. The 15 young women were all make-up artists taking part in a photograph […]
Cats of Thunder… or Thundercats?
There’s a lot to be said for this designn by Chris Thornley. Thornley runs Raid71 and seems to have produced material for the likes of NME, Levi, Fortean Times and even Lego. I was impressed with Fortean Times as a client – even more geek impressed to see that he’s worked with Lego. His four […]
Cthulhu inspiration: Innsmouth Town Hall Meeting poster set
This is a clever idea from Etsy designer Narshero; a set of posters that lined up the Town Hall meeting of the good folk of Innsmouth. It’s a quiet town but the locals aren’t too keen on strangers and certainly swift to anger. This set of posters, which is designed to be shown three abreast, […]
Mobile Review: Samsung Galaxy Mini
I have long been of the belief that technology is an enabler. Used properly it can educate, entertain, and generally enhance the quality of our lives. I am also firmly of the belief that in order for the maximum number of people to benefit from technology, cost should not be a barrier to entry. Samsung […]
Apple suffers Windows logo prank
Microsoft has not yet managed to export their retail stores outside the US. Apple has been far more successful and they’re due to open a very large store in Hamburg, Germany, shortly. We might expect Microsoft to be the subject of pranks but as Apple grows and continues to be aggressively defensive of their IP […]
Dalek Lighter
Series six of new Doctor Who (or series 32 if you count from the beginning) has featured a fair chunk of monsters; even new baddies like The Silence and the Headless Monks. It’s been pretty cool. The Daleks, which received a bit of an update in series five, are being given a bit of a […]
iOS 5 will have magical space/time upgrade
The next generation of Apple’s portable OS, iOS 5, will have magic like abilities thanks to its space/time enhancement. With the space/time unit running you’re able to take items out of the screen and make them real or put real items into the iPad and make them virtual. Simon Pierro has an exclusive demo of […]
Wikileaks and #superinjunction busting versus Bruce Wayne
There’s a lot to be said for the freedom of free speach. There’s also a lot to be said in stopping the super rich using the courts as their own play thing. Mind you, there’s also a lot to be said for telling the tabloids where to go and having a healthy respect for the […]
Master Jedi Yoda… is cake
This looks as good as anything Charm City Cakes might do – and that’s a high compliment because that team rocks the cake world. For this cake we have Reddit user TomTom on a Tauntaun to thank as well as the mum who made this for her kid’s 8th birthday. It’s a fantastic idea but, […]
Daft Space is Daft Punk merged with Dead Space
This is the beauty of a mashup. You take 1 cool thing, add it to another 1 cool thing and end up with something greater than 2 cool things. Mashups break maths; they turn 1+1=2 to 1+1=3. Case in point; take music talents Daft Punk, take computer game exellence Dead Space, put them together and […]
