Firefox Pimps for the Everyman (like me!)

By AmHm • Sep 17th, 2008 • Category: Browsers

Hot: Admittedly, I’m an Internet n00b (does anyone even say that anymore?) Sure, I was chatting away with the best of ‘em on AOL in 1995, but it’s only within the last year (since I began work at an internet marketing company) that I’ve thought to embrace any browser other than Internet Explorer, any email [...]



Cigarette Burns – A Tear Into weirdHolly

By Sketch E Whiteface • Sep 10th, 2008 • Category: Film

Hot: If someone reliable could tell me when in the future films would become solely based on finances it’d certainly save me the hassle of looking up articles on the Internet. If someone told me it would be next week I wouldn’t be shocked in the least since in it’s current state it’s just about [...]



A Vinyl Toy Project I Can Totally Get Into: My Little Pony

By Giania • Sep 10th, 2008 • Category: Art

Hot: There are lots of really great, creative vinyl toys out there, but by and large it hasn’t really grabbed my attention, made me sit up, and say WHOA PONY! Ok that was bad. The My Little Pony Project I loved My Little Pony when I was younger, and to be perfectly honest, I still [...]



NH Media Makers Minutes 08-10-08

By Giania • Aug 10th, 2008 • Category: Guides

Hot: My awesome Lorem Ipsum shirt provided by TeeFury, makers of fine, rare designer tshirts. First off, it was great to see everybody again! I had missed the last two Media Makers events and kicked myself pretty hard both times. Thanks to my cat and the fact that I have a memory like a (rusted) [...]



Dream Log: Burroughs-esque?

By Giania • Jul 27th, 2008 • Category: Dream Log

Hot: The bathroom was a terrible place to be. All the stall doors were slightly ajar and the terrible placement of the typical office fluorescent lighting gave the shadows life that they certainly wouldn’t have possessed on their own. I kept turning back in terror from what I assumed was a malevolent face in the [...]



Design-a-Vagina Contest Redux Closed

By Giania • Jun 30th, 2008 • Category: Recursion

Hot: Yes, once again our first-ever contest, the Design-a-Vagina Contest (Redux), has come to a close. The results are already in and those results may be expressed with the following image. If you can’t read that, and I don’t blame you if you can’t, it says “This Page Intentionally Left Blank” – which is to [...]



Use Your Love of Design to Donate

By Giania • Jun 27th, 2008 • Category: Art

Hot: NotCot.org strikes again. This morning they posted a blurb about a book called Fifty Designers’ Current Favourite Typefaces. The book only costs 3£ and 100% of that 3 pounds goes directly to UNICEF to help aid victims – specifically the children – of the cyclone which happened in Myanmar (aka Burma) this past May. [...]



An Event Apart Day One Conference Notes Part 1

By Giania • Jun 27th, 2008 • Category: Guides

Hot: Day one was fraught with challenges, up to and including having trouble finding the venue. It took a lot of wandering around, a phone call, and I think two concierge desk stops to finally figure out that the Copley Plaza Marriott was in fact through the Copley Plaza Westin and the attached mall. That [...]



Artsy Fartsy Fun: Learn to Screenprint

By Giania • Jun 26th, 2008 • Category: Guides

Hot: Lately I’ve gotten a really strong urge to learn how to screenprint, or silk screen as it’s also called. I’ve done some reading online, with MAKE/CRAFT magazine being particularly helpful. Still, as excited as I was I didn’t feel like I had quite enough information to really jump in and start buying screens and [...]

Hot: Very cool project, very fun to see what’s come up most often on RKNet recently.
