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.

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



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.

Sony 360°



Ha isn't it a bit ironic that's it's called Sony 360? Anyway i think this product is really interesting, I'm still trying to figure out how they actually managed to do it. How did the display stay flat regardless of where you were to view it?

Bloom Energy



Yesterday, we witness the unveiling of an eco-friendly fuel cell. It's a product that got a lot of people excited as it generates electricity with only by products like water, heat and some carbon dioxide. To be exact, they operate using Solid Oxide Fuel Cell.


A solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is an electrochemical conversion device that produces electricity directly from oxidizing a fuel. Fuel cells are characterized by their electrolyte material and, as the name implies, the SOFC has a solid oxide, or ceramic, electrolyte. Advantages of this class of fuel cells include high efficiencies, long term stability, fuel flexibility, low emissions, and cost. The largest disadvantage is the high operating temperature which results in longer start up times and mechanical/chemical compatibility issues.

Watch out for this company, they have already been providing these energy servers to big companies like google, ebay etc. Visit their website for more informations.

Coconut carrying Octopus!




Improvisation at it's best! But if you think a little further, this is happening because they do not have any more coral reefs and sea plants to hide under anymore. Another interesting thing to note is that the use of coconut actually screws up their camouflaging ability i think. They should be blending with the sand, not the coconut. Blending with the coconut makes them so much more obvious to enemies.

Ants create a lifeboat in the Amazon jungle - BBC wildlife



Wow, nature never cease to amaze me. Anyway came across this site (Ask Nature) today, which promotes learning and taking hints from nature. The believe is that we will be able to design more effecient and better products if we can do that. Pretty interesting resources can be found there, simply key in what you like to find out about how nature will do certain thing and the results will be shown. Have a look at it! I'm sure you will find a lot of interesting knowledge there.

MV-22 Osprey



Just as i was saying on the previous post, it probably will become a hybrid of plane and helicopter because of the wing span needed for clearing both rotor blades, i found MV-22 Osprey. The motor tilt in the axis perpendicular to the body rather than parallel to it, allowing it to gain speed while losing it's hovering ability. For the size and use of this, agility is not it's main concern so it's justified. However for an aggressor they may want to look at sideway tilts or better still a ball joint?


Yeah it's easier said than done. They took more than 20 years to make this happen. They probably started with an ideal vision of a free rotating rotor blade, but after a many setbacks and disasters, reached a compromise of functions and abilities. Anyway it looks really cool.

New Video for BMW GINA Concept car

BMW Concept Car: GINA from 12FRAMES on Vimeo.



This is the kind of design that i like, one that ask questions on conventional wisdom (in this case the need for full metal housing). New possibilities arises when you find existence of these irrelevant acts.

The Secret Life of Plants

This video was obviously made pretty long ago, talks about plants having a state of consciousness, that they react to events around them. I'm sure many gardeners can attest to this claim, but i wonder how will the act of trimming plants have an effect on them. I mean the intention is good, but the plants will surely be in pain if it's cut. 


This is a bit freaky if it's true. Maybe we should just wire up our plants the next time to act as a sensor sort of device. Ha.

Hornets from Hell



This is one of the coolest documentary i have ever seen. Amazing cinematography! If the term is suitable to be used in this case ha. I caught this on TV few years back, it's way cooler in high quality. Skip to 1.34 for the action to start. Ha can the end be considered a proof of evolution?

About This Blog

This blog is about looking at design from a logical point of view. Good designs are often good because of the thinking behind it and not because of pure luck. The colour, forms etc can all be and should be rationalised. This belief doesn't mean that any and everyone can design by simply following a formula. It is still an art to decide on the solution that best fit all requirements.


I will be posting on some everyday stuff that's more light hearted and fun. Reviews will be done on products that I’ve gotten my hands on!
