ikea comes to brooklyn

I have no commentary on the suitability of the IKEA in Red Hook or its impact on the local neighborhood. I do however like the apartment inside a cardboard box promotion. And appropriately sized.

In Zurich I saw IKEA cabinets walking around to promote a new store.

my first post to dawdlr went up today. dawdlr is set up by one of the more interesting people around, Russell Davies who describes it as such:

I’ve tried to make dawdlr way slower than twitter. I reckon most people I know twitter about twice a day, so dawdlr is going to update twice a year. To try and get people to say what they’re doing, you know, more generally.

Its been over six months since I posted. I must have missed last Novembers posting by a few short days.


Bearded kids in Antarctica

Bearded Kids

The Natural History Museum in London has an exhibit that features Antarctic qualities such as 24 hour darkness and frigid cold temperatures. Ice Station Antarctica challenges kids to see if they are up to the challenges faced in the extreme Antarctic environment. The bearded kids are from posters advertising the exhibition, shot by Paul Thompson, whose work is really quite stunning. Why do the kids have beards? Don’t all arctic and antarctic explorers have beards?
