Morning Linkage (Jun 29)

Five on the going some­where theme.

Two trans­porta­tion devices. Similar design feel — rad­i­cal­ly different
experiences.

Black and white and plas­ti­cy and wonderful.

Black and white and plas­ti­cy and dorky. (It’s real future might be as
a basis for bet­ter wheel chairs.)

Not what we are look­ing for in an elec­tric motor­cy­cle (but Mission One
gets a mention.)

Shoes I am unlike­ly to wear but would con­sid­er adding to the art collection.

Amazing sur­re­al pho­tos cre­at­ed with­out com­put­er assis­tance. I think of
the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland like this. (Possibly NSFW but
it’s very arty and you’d have to look real­ly hard.)

Main image tech­ni­cal­ly SFW but OGM giggle/squick. (In gen­er­al Atomic
Sex Kitten is very NSFW but very hap­py pr0n.)

Two on design.

A sim­ple graph­ic that describes the con­text for flow in gam­ing, and
life in general.

Several design­ers dis­cuss the dif­fer­ences between sin­gle user
screen/mouse/keyboard and multi-user MS Surface inter­face design.

And one more, a place to go and pon­der that even with all the modern
geo-tech we still have mys­ter­ies. (yay!)
