I can not think of a better combo than Tim Burton and Johnny Depp to make this film. This looks absolutely classic!
Alice in Wonderland 3D stars Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter and Mia Wasikowska as the 19-year-old Alice. The Walt Disney film is due for release in the UK on 5 March, 2010 and worldwide on these dates (per IMDB):
quite amusing.
This is a fine example of ingenious technical know-how at play. The video speaks for itself, but if you're looking for a reason to watch... think about how easy your life would be if you never needed to carry house keys again.
Using a recently acquired lomography fisheye fixed lens camera, I had a bit of fun on and around London's Southbank taking these shots.
If you have any fisheye photographs of your own (or that you've mysteriously found), I'd love to check it out and link to it here -- so please drop me a comment or an email (digitallyunlimited at gmail).
This is some impressive architectural work. I found this first example on Daily Tonic, a site dedicated to design and architecture (two topics of great inspiration to me). The firm responsible for the design of this masterpiece is formodesign, a Polish architectural company.
This fine example of amphibious architecture reminded me of what has been done in Holland where rising water levels are a constant problem in some parts. This comes from inhabitat (where you can see more photos).
So what other examples of this type of architecture are there out there? With rising tidal levels, linked to global warming, floating / water-bound houses may become a necessity, rather than just a curiosity.
German firm, IBA, has this prototype for your consideration...
And of course, what better place to have a house on water, than in Venice -- the city on the water! The infallible BLDGBLOG had this piece on an American project to put a normal bungalow on the water in Venice. Watch the video of the life and death of the house here (embedding of the video has sadly been disabled by the producer).
Do you know of any other examples of houses on water? Give me a shout in the comments.
As part of London Design Museum's Super Contemporary exhibition, Ross Phillips has designed an interactive installation called Head to Toe.
"Four pods around London take short videos of the heads, bodies or legs of the people standing in front."
You can then do the switcheroo on each of these body parts to create your own London being.
Try it out here.
You can find out all about the rest of Super Contemporary at the official website.
