Wallpaper* Magazine | Sex Issue: Type Tart Cards |
by jerome
& 1 other
Tart cards are the means by which many London prostitutes advertise their services. Step into almost any central London phone box and you can contemplate up to 80 cards inviting you to be tied, teased, spanked or massaged.
Even if a police crackdown, the internet and the increasing use of mobile phones suggest their days are numbered, tart cards are still so pervasive they are now regarded as items of accidental art and have something of a cult following. Once on the periphery of design, tart cards have influenced the work of many mainstream artists such as Royal Academician Tom Phillips and Sex Pistols designer Ray and Nils Stevenson.

Why trains run slower now than they did in the 1920s. - By Tom Vanderbilt - Slate Magazine
by karlcow
aaaah ce pays de progrès.The aforementioned Montreal Limited, for example, circa 1942, would pull out of New York's Grand Central Station at 11:15 p.m., arriving at Montreal's (now defunct) Windsor Station at 8:25 a.m., a little more than nine hours later. To make that journey today, from New York's Penn Station on the Adirondack, requires a nearly 12-hour ride.
Développement efficace avec les frameworks CSS - La Case de l'Oncle Tom
by delavigne
& 2 others
Les frameworks CSS ont été mentionnés la première fois dans la conférence Working in the Now (visualiser la présentation). Au final, on n’était pas loin de faire salle comble avec plus d’une vingtaine de participants à vue de nez.
Une petite scéance de rattrapage s’impose ;-)
Pourquoi avoir choisi ce sujet ?
J’ai lu un article sur l’importance du rythme vertical l’an dernier sur Biologeek et ça m’a sensibilisé au fait qu’on pouvait rendre la lecture d’un site tout simplement en rendant prédictible la position du texte.
Entre temps j’ai également lu l’excellent Transcender CSS d’Andy Clarke. J’y ai été sublimé par des présentations de sites totalement en grille.
Depuis je suis devenu fan de Blueprint CSS (je crois que ça s’est remarqué lors de mon intervention ;-)). J’ai commencé à l’utiliser sur des projets personnels puis dans un cadre professionnel. J’utilisais déjà symfony comme framework PHP et jQuery comme framework JavaScript alors pourquoi pas Blueprint ?
Comme le suggérait très justement Christian Heilmann dans sa présentation, l’utilisation d’outils déjà existants est nécessaire pour réduire les coûts de production. C’était déjà un bon alibi mais je les apprécie aussi parce qu’on gagne un temps fou ! On se concentre sur le code métier, pas le reste.

CR Blog » Blog Archive » Tom Gauld’s sketchbooks
by karlcow
For a brief glimpse into the working methods of one of the UK’s best illustrators, head on over to Tom Gauld’s new Flickr page, where he has uploaded several of his sketchbook pages. For example, you can see how a cartoon he did for the Guardian entitled, The Street Tom Waits Grew Up On, evolved from a list of ideas and drawings to final artwork…

microprinter / FrontPage

Tom describes it as "an experiment in physical activity streams and notification, using a repurposed receipt printer connected to the web". Hackers across the country are buying up old old receipt printers and imaginatively repurposing them into something new. We call them microprinters.
