What on earth is going on here? I don’t know, but I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to create another Brit Pack Vanity Fair cover.

Great article on the ins and outs of three dimensional imagery. Still doesn’t change my opinion that well-shot conventional cinematography is more impressive than the novelty that is Avatar.
This is one of the most useful articles I’ve read in a long time. As we work on focusing, strengthening, and simplifying Newsvine, the concepts discussed by Lukas ring true. “Saying no” has never been a strong suit of mine. It’s very helpful to remember how important of a quality it is. (via fullstopinteractive)
Newly released video of the space shuttle Challenger disaster: It was 24 years ago, I was in 5th grade, but I remember it like it was yesterday. School was stopped immediately and they wheeled out televisions in every classroom for us to watch the news footage. It’s great that this video has been released, but holy crap, how do you tuck something that away for two decades???
New ways of searching are almost never as useful as old ways of searching. Spezify is pretty awesome though. It’s a visually interesting, never-ending, horizontally and vertically scrollable, topic explorer. I don’t think I’d use it for digging deep on anything, but to get a quick visually rich sampling of a topic, it’s quite fun (via tiff, a long time ago actually, over email).
Reminds me of my favorite logo design advice: “Never waste a stroke”. (via gruber)
The best hockey team intro ever: Or as Tyler says “The Alaska Nanooks are my new favorite hockey team”.
Rachel’s right, this is the best thing ever. At least, once you get the joke. Being the old fart that I am, I had no idea why this was funny until I spent about 30 seconds figuring out what a Team Jacob was and and then it was only a matter of time before, well… it would seem this poor girl confused Pat Robertson, douchebag supreme, with teen heartthrob and Twilight “star” Robert Pattinson.
Interesting. I just assumed “switching to Team Jacob” meant converting to judaism.
I have no idea if these guys are any good or not, but this is the best example of a design agency site I’ve seen in a long time. It’s clean, extremely readable, very well-written, friendly, free of fluff and hyperbole, and contains clear calls to action. If you own your own agency and are trying to drum up work, you could learn a lot from how these guys present themselves. (via CSS Beauty)
Avatar: The Making of the Bootleg Makes me want to skip the whole 3D thing and support the Canal Street cinematographer’s guild.
According to Frank W. Sweet, it all goes back to cereal.
Very thorough writeup. It’s almost time to walk sIFR peacefully into the sunset. (via oxygensatchel)
A great HDR Tutorial from Wolfgang Bartleme (aka “The Austrian Wolf”). One of these days, I’m going to start shooting this way… probably after it’s an automatic function of the camera though.
Where Should I Eat? Fast Food Edition: A nice flowchart. Good to see Jack-In-The-Box getting some props. Pretty tough on Arby’s though!

The men’s scent will smell like CSS while the women’s version will smell like HTML.
Oh boy, I *love* it! :-)
Ha! Chilling. =P
Observe my bare chest… that’s ’cause I don’t have a Newsvine t-shirt.
Where’s your other hand? That’s what I want to know.
Shocking! Hilarious! A great excuse to look at this picture again!
But seriously, you’ve got time for this and you don’t have time to answer the meme I sent you?
Wilson: Don’t you know that Mike Industries is where memes come to die? I thought that’s why you sent it. :)
Perfect! I ran the table then!
You Plagiariser you! Photoshop yer own meme!
;)
(At least yours is spelled correctly…!)
Now that’s genius!
As far as who’s really behind this, I haven’t one clue, but it’s been good fun.
I know that this should be a funny picture. But I can’t take my eyes off of Scarlett Johanson in order to properly inspect it.
Woh! Jeremy who knew you were a model! The look on your face is PRICELESS!
That is quality… I like it a lot!
Great photoshop Mike… The fact that Jeremy looks to be saying ‘How you doing’ to the hot makeup artist off camera makes it all the better… Jeremy lets show some proffesionalism please!
Anytime I wear more Adactio, my wife suddenly wants to jump my bones. Only I have to remind her not to call me Keith ;)
heh great job on that :D
I know that this should be a funny picture. But I can’t take my eyes off of my beautiful girlfriend in order to properly inspect it. And thanks to Adactio for Men, she can’t keep her hands off of me.
Kartoonists beware!
I first found reference on Mike Industries’s blog which refers to this hilarious blog at Jeremy Keith’s Adactio which all leads back to Erik Sagen at Kartooner
