21 Nov 2011 - Week 3 of my internship.

I'm just starting my third week here, and I'm beginning to get more projects. There is no looming deadline at the moment for our projects, so we are all taking it very easy. Actually, my coworker just left after lunch and I have the afternoon off now.  It's kind of weird like that.

ID

So I got off the subway today and I turned around and saw this. I definitely did a "HA," out loud and snapped a pic to share with you guys. Weird, because I've been getting off at this station for a week now and this is the first time I've seen it.

Crit Talk with Phil So

So you think you've got a good idea. But at your crit, people aren't nearly as enthusiastic. How do you react? What do you do? Could you do better?

Criticism is a big part of our field. How you approach it'll guide your motivations, relationships, and ultimately your idea's success.

An open discussion on why you should value and seek criticism, how to be honest about your ideas, and to give criticism people will want to hear.

Come hear different opinions, voice your own, ask questions, or reassure what you already think!

Catz are Persuasive, Unignorable, Relevant & Rememberable

What ever you do, do it with cattitude.

Haven't seen any kitty content on here in far too long.

Process

A geometric and ergonomic knife designed by Lebedev Studio, their form exploration and process leading up to the final design is pretty interesting... take a look.

Nature is Mint

The Royal Canadian Mint is releasing a few special coins with graphics that can best be described as "very cute". They celebrate Canada's glorious nature and Parks Canada's centennial. It's too late to order the absolutely delightful looking loonies, but the toonie is currently available. Best of all, they're pretty much free!
