Placebo
The band Placebo has released a new site designed by the UK based Fusonik Creative. The new site dons strange video intros, a nice collection of media and everything else you would expect. ... looking forward to the release of the new album.
I do find it curious that they placed a "copyright placebo" on every single asset on the site though. Definitely a bit overkill.
LA ROUX 'BULLETPROOF' - Mathematic Studio
Rad video all around...cinematography, sets, costume, hair & make-up, graphics... very solid geometrical 80's throw back
Synaptic Stimuli
This is the holy grail of visual stimulation. Such a wonderful collection of psychedelic, revolutionary inspiration. Lose your SELF in the ideas and magic that you find.
From the site: "The curation of hi-fidelity aesthetic stimulation which may affect and expand one’s consciousness, stir up latent cosmic origins, trigger cellular intelligence, tickle the neurons & the warm one’s heart.
These curations are coupled with my thoughts, writings, and musings in hopes to inspire and turn you on to your own evolutionary destiny." - Michael Chichi
The Buck Doesn't Stop Here
Really nice US currency redesign project, worth checking out and discussing. Why should the USA have the world's ugliest money?
The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.
Tree House Restaurant
A spectacle to see, the seafood restaurant "NAHA HARBOR DINER" located on top of a big banyan tree near the Naha port in Japan.
According to their site they use plenty of fresh okinawan ingredients. Farm-fresh vegetables, juicy chickens and porks,
shore fishes freshly caught every day and native salts and herbs.
