Mute.com: Various (Mute) - Mute Audio Documents 1978-1984

by Neewok

Mute emerged in the post-punk era. It was a new era of pop democracy, and anyone could make a record. You didn't even need to know three chords, according to Mute founder Daniel Miller. All you needed, he said, was an idea. His 'idea' was to create a classic of DIY pop - a double A sided 7" single featuring the songs T.V.O.D. and Warm Leatherette. He called himself The Normal, designed a sleeve with Letraset, stuck the name Mute on it, and accidentally started a record label.

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

Flickr: Discussing Split Toning in Adobe Lightroom

by mozkart
In a nut shell it works like this, at least with B&W this is what I have found to work good for me :-) 1.)Make the image B&W using the Greyscale Mixer, curves and all other tools to get the image just how you want it from a tonality standpoint 2.)Move down to the split toning section. It has 3 sections the top one is for Hightlights and has two sliders, the bottom one is for shadows and has two sliders, and the middle slider sets the midway point between what is a higlight and what is a shadow 3.)Starting with the highlights slide the saturation slider all the way to the right. This will give you a great idea as to what color tint the highlights will get. Then slide the top slider until you get to the color you want. In my sample image I set the tint to 42. Then slide the saturation level all the way down 4.)Move down to the shadows and do the same thing. I set the color for 38 5.)Play with the saturation sliders until you get the effect you want. The more saturation the more tint the image will get 6.)Finally slide the middle slider to tell lightroom where to make the shift between highlights and shadows ************************************************************8 When you get a tint scheme you like save it as a preset. Remember however to uncheck everything but "Split Toning" Save different saturation levels for each tint setting you like. In this example I posted I call it my Sepia Tones and I saved the follwing settings. For all of these I set Highlights for 42 and shadows for 38 and then set both saturations at the same numbers listed below Warming Sepia 5 Light Sepia 11 Medium Sepia 28 Deep Sepia 40 Ultra Deep Sepia 70 by saving them as presets it makes it very easy to cycle through them. Of course every image is different and these are just meant to get you in the ball park. You will also need to adjust the midpoint for each image. The above is great for a Traditional Sepia Tone. If you want more of a selenium tone set the Highlights for 34 and the Shadows for 237. This will give you warm highlights and cool shadows

Firefox Tip: Reopen the last closed tab with Ctrl Shift T - Lifehacker

by julie (via)
The heavens opened and a bright warm light shone down today when I discovered the Firefox keyboard shortcut that re-opens the most recently closed tab: Ctrl-Shift-T. (Cmd-Shift-T for Mac users.) This one ranks up there with Ctrl-T (new tab) and Ctrl L (go to address bar). Our time together was short and clicky, but now it's over between us, tab bar right-click menu. Fare thee well. — Gina Trapani

Anna Gram' [ florian dussopt julie girard jérémie reneau ] _______ design

by julie (via)
[The project aims at introducing a new way of drinking tea or another warm drink (with sugars), replacing the spoon. Ceramic ball is the simplest shape, where this hygienical and qualitative material finds its place. The ball is put into a glass built with special shapes. Then we have to pour some infused tea into it for exemple: the liquid pushes the ball, and invites users to move it by moving the glass. The ceramic ball comes to mix all various sugars, ringing the glass at the same time. When we drink, this ball is blocked by the gravity in the recess of the glass, moreover than its shape is too big to be ingested. This is a different and amusing way to use ceramic. Function creates an new gestural and aesthetic appeal." Designers :: ANNA GRAM' ( Florian Dussopt + Jérémie Reneau )]
