We finally played at SIngapore's National Stadium. This is our first and probably will be our last time playing in this stadium. Even so, we find it hard to attract any spectators down to support us lol.

Content Aware Fill : Amazing Photoshop features to be available soon!

People who use photoshop will find this so so useful! Obviously there will be all the old schoolers photographers who will be disgusted by what this will lead to. Well i think in the end it's still your sense of aesthetic and creativity that counts. So they shouldn't be too worried about it.

Bell by Industrial Facility

I really like this Bell alarm clock by Industrial Facility. I am a fan of what people call minimalist design, however it's not the styling but the thinking behind it that interest me. The way we can minimize unnecessary materials, components and styling that result in better communication and function. That to me is the right way to design something.


Still do not understand why is it call Bell? Take a look below and you will immediately understand. (click on image for larger view)

Now do you get it? Isn't it interesting? Other then taking on the profile of outline of a bell, it actually holds another sort of bell at it's back, the alarm bell. Even the choice of colour is aptly chosen (by the way this is fire bell red, the other 2 colours are bicycle bell chrome and door bell black). Immediately you know this alarm clock will be pretty loud. By choosing to expose the bell, we get better (louder) alarm, yet there is no need for an additional cover just to cover it up. All i can say is that it is really a nice and smart idea. Looking at the clock face, you can notice that the numbers aren't immediately noticeable. This obviously is intended so as to minimize distractions. As we do not usually need precise knowledge of time, doing so allows quick and easy time telling. Various thickness of the hands allows differentiation and also reflect on the "value" (thicker hand = bigger value) of the figure it is pointing to.


However it always is disappointing how these designs always end up way more expensive when it is supposed to use less. This clock is selling for around 50 euros.


Head on to Industrial Facility's site to find out more.

Fujifilm HS10

There are a lot of useless gimmicky features now in the new cameras out there today as various companies try to out do one another in gaining market shares. However in this case, i really think the function of removing moving subjects is really cool! Taking a step back, if you are taking pictures of a popular destination, i think you will expect the others to be staying put, trying to take their own pictures as well. 


Still a really nice idea if you want to take photos of yourself without people moving behind you!

VIV Mag Featurette: A Digital Magazine Motion Cover and Feature for the iPad from Alexx Henry on Vimeo.

Many people do not understand what iPad or even Apple is about. This is what it is about! Empowering people to do great things! Some narrow minded companies will just set out to develop their own contents so they keep all the profits, they do not understand that by allowing everyone to have a slice of the cake, your cake will end up bigger than if you try to stomach it all on your own.
