Here’s a nice little site from the Sony Style Lounge in Mexico. It incorporates a minimal number of photographs with some very smooth slick transitions to create a nice faux-environment. It seems as if these ‘zooming in and out of rooms in a faux-environment’ has reached some type of critical mass amongst designers. I still like them and think they’re cool, but what’s next on the horizon?

Cesar Comanche is one of the founding members of the lauded North Carolina hip-hop collective better known as the Justus League. The Justus League is also home to critically acclaimed act Little Brother who helped put the crew on the map with the success of their debut album The Listening (ABB Records) in 2002. Originally from Jacksonville, NC, Cesar began writing rhymes in 1994, but didn’t pursue rhyming as a career until 1996. In that same year, he met budding producer 9th Wonder and began collaborating in the studio as well as doing shows in and around North Carolina. It wasn’t long before his sound and style got around.
After a few years of working and perfecting his craft, Comanche along with 9th Wonder, organized their fellow friends and rap artists in the Triangle’s hip-hop scene and started the Justus League Crew in 1999. Since then, he has performed with such acts as Tha Liks, The Coup, Hieroglyphics, ZMan, Dilated Peoples, Living Legends, Faust & Shortee, and Wordsworth to name a few.

Here come the Neistat Brothers from the “iPod’s Dirty Secret” fame. They were recently featured in the latest mailing of Artkrush and it seems that their movies will be featured in their Paris invasion at Colette this fall.
Here’s a quote from Artkrush to give you a sense of who these guys are and what they’ve been up to, “It’s a good thing the Neistat Brothers found a creative outlet for their angst — otherwise they might now be doing time, and we would certainly be less amused. Growing up in rural Connecticut, Casey, who is 24 years old, and Van, who is 30, had their share of clashes with the law before moving to New York to pursue a slightly more socially acceptable form of artistic fun. The duo gained immediate fame with the 2003 Internet release of iPod’s Dirty Secret, which captures them taking Casey’s argument with Apple straight to the streets. The website received more than a million hits and major media attention.”

Here’s a link that was sent to me by my good friend, Joseph Cartman. The site does a good job at handling the movie’s different characters and revealing some of the plot without revealing the full story.

SK Telecom’s MoMu (Mobile Museum) site is a great concept piece that breaks down the technologies behind SK Telecom’s next generation services like Cyworld, Digital World, and Moneta. Technologies like Mobile Networks, Satellite DMB, Broadband Convergence Networks, Telematics, and RFID are covered.
For all of the phone junkies out there, don’t fret, there’s an insane mobile phone timeline in there. Check out photos of the original Motorola Car Phone from 1984 and the Samsung Anycall SC2000 from 1988. The majority of the site is in Korean, but the pictures are really what you’ll be looking for.

Big Ideas come out of Big Pencils is the tagline for the Leo Burnett Canada site. Unfortunately, their site is another ‘zoom in and zoom out’ website. It seems like everyone and their mother is doing a ‘zoom in and zoom out’ website these days. However, I do like the pencily ‘etch-a-sketch’ idea. Well done.
