Color Chart: Reinventing Color from 1950 to Today

by sbrothier & 1 other
This exhibition takes as its point of departure the commercial color chart, an item that openly declares the status of color as mass-produced and standardized. Midway through th twentieth century, long-held convictions regarding the spiritual or emotional power of particular colors gave way to the embrace of color as an ordinary commodity.

click opera - A passion for polished concrete

by karlcow

"The existing floor was uneven from inaccurate construction," writes Schemata architect Jo Nagasaka, "so we poured epoxy mixed with pine ash on the floor to create a flat surface. The transparent black liquid made different shades of black, following the uneven surface on the floor. It looked like gradation of color on a gradually shoaling beach."

Studio and Garden: Serizawa Keisuke and Textile Design

by sbrothier
Another of the exciting shows I saw while on my recent trip to NYC was a survey of the textile works of Serizawa Keisuke (1895-1984) at Japan Society, a Japanese designer who took his inspiration from the traditional techniques of stencil dyeing. This kimono was stunning in its color harmonies and surprising shapes. There were others just as dramatically beautiful. Some of the most startling designs were on Noren, or entrance curtains, their shapes strong and simple.

schemata architecture office: flat project

by karlcow

earlier, in june this year, japanese architecture studio schemata poured color epoxy

on the top board of school desks which were used in elementary schools. the now 'flat'

desks were before uneven due to time deterioration or scribbling. although the school

desks all have the same shape, they gradually gain individual character through the personal

items of the pupil, like a school bag or a hat. however, in this project, the individuality of

the desks is regenerated through colors, thanks to the craftsmanship and expertise

of nakamura shuhei. he reset the the unevenness to 'flat' with translucent color epoxy.

deep points are mirrored by dense colors and shallow points by more transparent shades.

this project is part of the 'flatproject' series.

jQSlickWrap - Slick text wrapping for jQuery

by vrossign
To do this, it needs to have access to the individual pixels of the images it's operating on -- which is why for jQSlickWrap to work, you need to have a browser that supports HTML 5's new canvas element. Here's an overview of the algorithm: 1. If necessary, pre-load the image. 2. Determine the CSS styles for the image (float and padding). 3. Create a canvas element and set its dimensions to the size of the image plus its padding. 4. Draw the image onto the canvas in the top-left location. 5. Figure out the "background" color of the image by examining the pixel data at the top-left corner of the image. 6. Fill the canvas with this background color.

four

by blackgoldfish
Today, my baby, you turn four. When did this happen? Was it not just yesterday that I had to put you inside my coat to keep you warm? Now look at you! Almost as tall as your sister with just as much spunk. Happy Birthday my punkin. What four is looking like so far: You pronounce your Rs as if you lived in Boston your whole life- A feather is a featheh. You sing from dawn to dusk- singsong monologues of your life. You eat a peanut butter sandwich every single day. You wake up hungry and must immediately eat a granola bar or your world collapses. You love coffee Your favorite color is blue You swing so high that I have to hold in my own concern because I see how much you need to do it. When you get mad, I suggest people step away, as you get a bit ferocious. You will brush my hair four an hour straight, and therefore I'll not ever cut it. You like to get your back lightly scratched, just like Mama. Happy Birthday, my sweet girl. Every day with you is a treasure and a surprise. I love you.
