I love to travel and I really want to go to Oakland now after watching Coolhunting’s Word-of-Mouth Video Guide. It seems like the Berlin of the US West Coast.
Well, this just looks great. Video processing made in the 70′s by Woody Vasulka & Brian O’Reilly and recently digitized.

On this special hour-long Embedded, Mos Def takes us on an all access seven-day tour of Japan while he performs his new album The Ecstatic
to packed venues in Tokyo and Osaka. During that week, he hits up the Harajuku fashion district, whoops it up at a sumo wrestling match, and gets a personal tour of the Tokyo Giants stadium from his friend and baseball phenom Mark Kroon.
At New Media Days, I watched a heated discussion about the challenges in the music business today (“Vi vil ha’ Spotify til Danmark“). In many ways the revolution startet with the iPod and therefore it was interesting for me to find a video of Steve Jobs presenting the iPod for the first time at a relatively low-key event. It’s also great to watch his skills and attitude on the stage and the simplicity and logic in the presentation itself.
We have seen the ‘upload your picture thing’ before, but this campaign from Swedish television does it really well. Almost makes you want to pay for your tv signal.
To promote the STOR KUNST campaign for Ramlösa we did some posters that paid homage to Copenhagen grafitti and street art. Enjoy.
We’re all looking forward to the new Sherlock Homes movie. Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson are the Crockett and Tubbs of the Victorian era. This Facebook Connect based game turns you into the investigator and it’s certainly not as easy at it seems in the movie. Nice look as well.
New Media Days is a yearly conference in Copenhagen that was just completed this evening. I wanted to make a post here on the Plant blog where I could dump different links to general materials, articles and other collections of blog posts from the conference. Feel free to add more stuff in the comments.

“How it would be, if a house was dreaming”
The conception of this project consistently derives from its underlying architecture – the theoretic conception and visual pattern of the Hamburg Kunsthalle. The Basic idea of narration was to dissolve and break through the strict architecture of O. M. Ungers “Galerie der Gegenwart”. Resultant permeabilty of the solid facade uncovers different interpretations of conception, geometry and aesthetics expressed through graphics and movement. A situation of reflexivity evolves – describing the constitution and spacious perception of this location by means of the building itself.
