Obama | One People

by tisienpo
The City illustrates the emotional flow of the Presidential Inauguration in Washington, D.C. Through an analysis of the number of mobile phone calls made in Washington D.C. on Inauguration Day and the home state or country of phone origin, it is possible to see peaks of call activity as the crowd anticipates President Obama's oath, a drop in call activity as the crowd listens to his inaugural address, and peaks again as the crowd celebrates the inauguration of the new President. Through their cell phones, those present at the historic event share their impressions with friends and family in vast numbers: on the morning of January 20th, call activity is two to three times stronger than usual, and it rises to five times the normal levels after 2 pm as President Obama takes his oath and people begin to celebrate.

EasyWP Install (Beta)

by oseres
A better way to install wordpress… Traditionally to install WordPress you would have to download the archive, extract it to your computer, upload over 600 files to your website, and then set up your databases, etc. EasyWP takes all this pain an complexity out of installing WordPress by automating the whole process. Easy WP is a single php file that automatically downloads the latest version of WordPress to your server, extracts the archive (on your server), and takes you to the built in WordPress setup process.

A Daily Dose of Architecture: Unpacking My Library

by karlcow

The exhibition takes its name from an essay by Walter Benjamin, who writes about the memories sparked by the act of unpacking his collection of books after having them stored in boxes for two years. While Benjamin speaks as a collector and looks at books as objects tied to their owner, these architects will be speaking about the ideas found in the books and the influence on their own work. As someone who reads voraciously, I'm most interested by the recommendations, something that also occurs at the Storefront for Art and Architecture's curated micro-bookshop. Hopefully MAS will provide more online content for the exhibition, such as these lists, as it should be interesting to see any overlap between architects (if any) and to discover some lesser-known gems.

Mega drop-down navigation at Basecamp and Rails Guides site Matt Mar 25 16 comments Latest by Jonathan Jakob Nielsen says mega drop-down navigation menus work well. Given that regular drop-down menus are rife with usability problems, it takes a lot for me to recommend a new form of drop-down. But, as our testing videos show, mega drop-downs overcome the downsides of regular drop-downs. Thus, I can recommend one while warning against the other. We’ll +1 that. A good, related example from our world: The project switcher in Basecamp. switcher Design Decisions: Basecamp Project Switcher [SvN] explains how we redesigned the project switcher from a normal drop-down to a mega drop-down.

Gemma San Cornelio - Node "Locative Media and Artistic Practice: Explorations on the Ground"

by karlcow

The term locative media refers generally to the communication technologies involving location; ie, those providing a link or information relating to a specific place via devices such as GPS, mobile telephones or PDAs, laptop computers or wireless networks. These media are now fully integrated into our daily lives and lead to a whole series of social, professional and cultural routines. Likewise, they have catalysed a certain level of curiosity and concern both in terms of artistic practice and academic study. In this issue of Artnodes, we want to contribute to the academic debate on locative media. We focus specifically on artistic projects that use these media for distinct aims, from political activism to games, or the different ways of appropriating these technologies. This allows us to see, from a conceptual perspective, that all these projects share an idea of the notion of space: how it is ordered, how it is represented, or what kind of social interaction takes place there. These are the underlying questions in each and every one of these locative media projects.

Sustainable Architecture in Japan - a greenhouse for a house! | Modern House Designs

by karlcow

Finally, a greenhouse which can also accommodate people: the Camouflage House. Why should we continue considering that greenhouses are suitable only for plants? It's not the case anymore. This house by Hiroshi Iguchi is part of the Fifth World project which aims to promote eco friendly, sustainable architecture. The house takes natural elements and blends them all into the design of the interior. Warm, natural materials are used. Wood for the floors, light, traditional Japanese panels for compartments and white canvas to protect the interior from excessive heat. Even more, some of the trees were literally incorporated into the house, by letting them grow up to the sky in between the walls of the house. The rooms just go around them, surrounding all four sides and making themselves one with the green environment. Living close to the heart of nature was never so well understood and put into practice. A Camouflage House by Hiroshi Iguchi? Yes, please!

Just craving for it… gosh
