Uma iniciativa a assinalar e uma forma de nos começarmos a redimir da nossa ausencia!

Fui por boas razões que esperamos brevemente perceptíveis

~~~

A remarkable iniciative and our way to say we’re sorry for our abcense!

The reasons will be explained briefly (so we believe!)

Craft, Make and O’Reilly media

It wouldn’t be fair not to leave our note about this magificent sour of info for all makers, diy’ers, craftsman, hobbyist and so on community. It is build for a vast open source for everything community, who loves to share and to build, to admire and discuss. Here’s our hommage to O’Reilly.

I’m anxiously waiting for my print version of Make Magazine!

~~~

Não seria justo manter este blog sem afirmar o nosso apreço pela O’Reilly. Para toda a comunidade ligada ao Open Source, criação pessoal, auto-produção, Bricolage ou simplesmente amantes da “manualidade” esta é uma das mais importantes referencias. É para esta que fica aqui a nossa domingueira homenagem à falta do ansiosamente aguardado número 20 da MAKE!

Another musical moment….

…or rewinding tapes with a pencil while listening to second favorite in your walkman. Those were the times… and as you can listen…they last until today.
This room of the tower loves to listen to Broken Social Scene while working or driving!

Multitouch Barcelona might be a good reason to go to offf 09 (at Oeiras)

A Multitouch Barcelona pode ser uma das boas razões para ir ao offf 09 (Oeiras)

Not just bicycles at Designhuis

// April 19th, 2009 // No Comments » // André

i just foud this gallery at core77 now. It was an exhibition at Designuis a Design Academy Eindhoven related center:

“The idea to start the Designhuis came up in the board of the Design Academy Eindhoven about four years ago. A platform and meeting point for design and innovation would be a great addition to the design potential already present in the city of Eindhoven. The fusion of research, science and design, disciplines that are already in ample supply in this town, has a lot of potential. Eindhoven as the cradle of Dutch Design was becoming clearer all the time. The presence of the internationally respected Design Academy and its spin-offs gives Eindhoven a chance at an international profile. More and more designers out of the Young generation of graduates establish themselves in Eindhoven because of the excellent infrastructure and the presence of industry. Moreover, ever since the fusion of the Academy’s annual Graduation Show and the Dutch Design Week in 2001 Eindhoven has a design event that is unique in the Netherlands and is only matched abroad by professional fairs and design biennials.”

Só agora encontrei a esta galeria no core77 e por ter empatia com a temática pareceu-me interessante publicar. A exposição foi em 2008 na Designhuis. Extrai o excerto acima do site da instituição. (penso que não vale a pena traduzir)

We hope the Easter bunny … ~~~ … na condigna companhia do vosso achocolatado amigo coelhinho da pascoa…

// April 9th, 2009 // 2 Comments » // André

We hope the Easter bunny gets home on time of watching this two videos with you.
We found them very Easter moody…. please don’t ask us why…. We won’t answer: It’s one of those design “things”
Anyway we hope to talk about the Bourelec and their projects… to explore and know more about the Soma project and for sure to talk about many more design “things”…

~~~

Esperamos que seja com um descanso e na condigna companhia do vosso achocolatado amigo coelhinho da pascoa que desfrutem destes dois vídeos que seleccionámos. Achámo-los Pascais, ou o que quer que isso queria dizer.. não nos porquê que não responderemos com certeza… é uma daquelas “coisas do design”…
Esperamos vir a dispensar tempo a falar sobre os Bourolec e conhecer melhor este projecto Soma. Esperamos perder ainda mais tempo a mergulhar na profunda subjectividade dessas “coisas do design” …
… esperamos também não ter que as definir…
