Lomografie – Buchgestaltung
We just spotted this nice publication via slanted magazine. The project called ‘Lomo – Farbrausch’ is a semester project from german Annabell Ritschel. The article (available in german) starts with
“Heute stellen wir euch ein farbfunkeliges Buch von Annabell vor, das sie im Rahmen eines Semesterprojekts an der HAW Würzburg gestaltete. „Lomo – Farbrausch“ gibt Einblick in die unverwechselbare Ästhetik und die verspielt bunte Welt der Lomografie. Ein paar Einblicke dazu in den folgenden Bildern und ein paar interessante Fragen, die uns Annabell zu ihrem Buch beantwortete …”

Dortmunds Kreativ Stars im März
For our locals:
Die Ausstellungsreihe bei Heimatdesign in Kooperation und mit Unterstützung
der Wirtschaftsförderung Dortmund geht weiter. Im März wird Interior und
Fotografie das Thema sein.
Zu Katharina Pawliks Serie “La Basurita“: … versteht sich, menschlich wie materiell,
als eine Antwort auf den globalen Trend der Wegwerfgesellschaft.
La basurita ist eine Interieurserie, die unser Mobiliar auf das Wesentliche reduziert.
Grundbedürfnisse wie schlafen, sitzen, ablegen und verstauen stehen im Mittelpunkt
der Entwürfe. Nutzlos gewordene Alltagsgegenstände, die der moderne Stadtmensch
mangels Bedarf und Interesse auf die Straße stellt, werden als Rohstoff eingesetzt.
Die Fokussierung auf Grundbedürfnisse und die im Entwurfsprozess entstehenden
funktionalen Alltagsobjekte führen das Material von der Straße in den Wohnbereich
zurück. Multiple Nutzungsmöglichkeiten erlauben eine flexible Anwendung der
jeweiligen Möbel. So endet das Design von la basurita erst mit der Benutzung.
Wer Zeit hat, kommt!
Wann? 04. 03. – 27. 03. 2010
Wo? Im Heimatdesign, Dortmund-City

Analytics for your Dashboard: Trakkboard
Maybe some of you use Google Analytics to take a look at your website visitors and visits, pageviews per visitor and so on … from time to time. Although it’s a nice function for webmasters or curious people in general, I think it’s not nice to log in to your google account every time you’d like to check the stats. So why don’t have it all in an small application on your desktop? Open source, no matter if mac or win? So I started a search to find a tool … I tested more than this one, but liked this the most, so I’d like to share my experience with it. Take a look at some screenshots:
To use this nice & hight customizable tool you need to register at the Trakkboard homepage to receive your free key. The german developer team of this Adobe Air based application did a nice job, I really like the tabbed functions for your different projects and the dashboard-styled overview. You can manage all widgets on your own – so it’s easy to customize the stats individual for your different web projects. You can choose between visitors, visits, page per views, visiting time and so on – and can change the timeline end and start dates as you want, e.g. last 30 days… You can drag and drop and resize the widget modules in any way.

Analyze yourself via MousePath!
Dennis Wedding from WeloveMusic.EverySingleDay.Org and Nonstopnerds team spotted this cool tool on KitsuneNoir:
The tool is extremly small and comes for both Mac and Windows. It simply records every motion of your mouse or trackpad and visualizes it in a clean, monochromatic map.

Nice App: Tilt Shift Generator
I use to search through the Adobe Marketplace for free Air Apps from time to time… e.g. on long weekends. A while ago I spotted this awesome tool called Tilt Shift Generator which makes creation of tilt-shift lookalike photographies as easy as resizing a bunch of images. And best – it’s free.. Big thanks to Takayuki Fukatsu for this nice little tool… Visit the App Project’s Homepage…
