can we keep him?

It’s been a little quiet here on the GCI blog lately. It’s mostly because we’ve been so busy rocking projects and soaking up the sun that we just haven’t been able to find the time to post. With this recent heat wave however I’ve been finding myself indoors a bit more… and so has this little guy.

tugs can we keep him?

He’s cute, he’s fluffy, his name is Tugs and he thinks your feet are mice, no seriously he’ll eat your toes.

He’s been a little bundle of energy around the office and great at helping us keep our desks clear of… well, anything that can move he wants to play with… so everything. So cute!

Oh feel free to drop by and see him, also we have A/C!

prescription of awesome!

With all the hysteria surrounding pandemics and bacon these days I really feel like the media’s previous ‘go-to guy’ for fear-mongering: the computer virus, has been unfairly and unceremoniously punted into the darkness surrounding their spotlight.

This series entitled ‘Malwarez’ was created by Alex Dragulescu under a commission from MessageLabs. Built using data collected from various virus attacks and an algorithm’s inputs triggered with this information resulted in these organic ‘visualizations’ of computer virus attacks.

the world’s getting smaller and I like it…

A rendition of a classic song, done like you’ve never heard it before. Regardless of politics, this is just cool.

supinfocom: silly name, serious passion

When I think about the sheer amount of pure talent, creativity and passion that is exuded by the design community every year… It’s staggering.

It’s what drew me to the field in the first place (plus during the summers I get to wear flip-flops! woo!). I was surfing around on motionographer last night and came across a posting about some students at supinfocom, an art and design school in France, and the incredible work they’ve been producing.

from the hoop is what Arnoux Anthony, Dessinges Rémi and Fesquet Guillaume created.

Here’s a blurb from www.fromthehoop.com

Story of From the hoop is inspired by Earl Manigault‘s life. Earl Manigault was one of the greatest basketball player of his generation. Mentored by Holcombe Rucker through his youth he became the star of his high school team. As an universitary champion, he seemed destined to shine in NBA. But before the transition, he fell into drugs and lead his life far away from the basket. After dark years made of jail, drugs and friend’s death, he gave up this world to return in the right way to Harlem. He started the “Walk Away From Drugs” tournament for kids in Harlem. He died in 1998 from a heart failure.
