Living legend rock band AC/DC just dropped a new alternative video for their new single Rock N Roll Train made entirely in Excel using ASCII art.

To see it’s all true you can actually download the Excel file from their website.

Awesome way to push the envelope.

A KDU partner and true inspiration, Matt W. Moore (a.k.a. MWM) is an artist who isn’t afraid to jump from canvas to monitors and viceversa.

With geometrical works with exceptional dynamism, Moore has managed to enter the international market and appear in books, magazines, packaging, textile and various other projects.

This time I’m posting this interview recently made by the guys at ComputerLove, where he speaks about his creative processes and his relationship to the Keystone Design Union.

For more info on MWM be sure to check his website MWMGraphics.com.

Big up Matt!.

Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far is the latest book by the master Stefan Sagmeister, one of the grand designers of modern day design.
 
A while ago I read that the book’s packaging was laser cut to reveal different swapable patterns through Sagmeister’s face; but this video really explains how it works.
 
Awesome. The one I like the most is the T.
 
Plus the book is really cheap!. US$24 at Amazon.

Just today I received a comment on my blog from the very people who were behind the amazing Artificial Dummies I posted a while ago. They’re the great minds of Artificial Dummies I posted a while ago. They’re the great minds of TODO and the heads up was from their very own Andrea.

TODO is, in their own words, an interaction and media design agency. Stablished in Italy, this group has a whole lot going for them. Kickass interactive works, a kickass website, a kickass video collection and even better, an amazing level of creativity.

At the risk of being a bit repetitive, the video I left you above is an explanation of the almighty Artificial Dummies. Beautiful music and a subtle explanation on the little creatures.

Still I urge you to check out their websites. Their work is really a pleasure to watch and imagine.

Thanks a lot Andrea on the heads up! Much success!.

We’ve all seen a touch-screen. But now it’s the turn for a touch-screen scanner that, oddly enough, records the content of an object from the face that we see, not the machine. I think there must be some sort of special camera installed on the ceiling above.
 
The part with the moving mouse is specially cool.
