Sound Track

How great is this? Music box meets train track. Amazing on many levels, but I think my favorite part is that you can shuffle up the track pieces to create different musical configurations. If anyone figures out where it can be purchased please let us know.

I don’t really need to say anything, do I? But I’m going to… This is brilliant. So simple, so smart. You can buy from Muji’s website. Although you may need a translator.

And while we’re posting that little bit of awesomeness, it seems like an opportune time to share something else. Back in June we posted about a participatory art installation by Slovakian artist Roman Ondák at MoMA. Below is a new video featuring the artist describing his work. Pretty fun.

Grant Hamilton

These beautiful images by Grant Hamilton sure seem like perfect inspiration if you’re about to paint your kid’s room (Or any room for that matter). Not sure it’d be possible to capture the beautiful subtleties in tone of a Polaroid, but it sure would be worth a try. To watch a Flickr slideshow click here (treat yourself to full screen, you deserve it).


Some questions you’d probably ask Grant if given the chance are covered in Josh Spear’s brief interview with him from back in ’08.
