If you like to throw your laundry on the floor…

" After wearing, clothes are chucked on the stylish Laundry Rug, where they will stay until wash-day comes around. At this point chords around the edge of the rug are pulled together to form a handy carry bag for transporting the lot to the washing machine. It’s a bedroom must have for lazy people everywhere!"

Free Fiona!

Filed under: — adam @ 11:40 am

I sent around the link to one of the leaked songs off Fiona Apple’s new album, which has apparently been done for a year and a half and is sitting on a shelf at Sony because the boneheads can’t figure out how to market it or something else stupid like that.

Anyway, there’s a campaign being organized to send apple-related things to the guy in charge of this decision on or around January 24th, 2005.

His name and address is in the FAQ:

Non-realistic photos

Filed under: — adam @ 11:19 am

This describes a new technique for taking non-realistic photos with a digital camera and multiple flash exposures. This is very cool – the images look like detailed illustrations, but they accurately capture the actual full contours of the object. This has pretty serious applications in technical illustration and medical imaging, among other things.
