10 x 10
by Josh Rubin
Another creative approach to data visualization, Jonathan Harris' 10 x 10 is an interactive exploration of the words and pictures that define the time. The grid is updated every hour with the 100 most relevant words and images based on the headlines and leading photos from the worlds primary on-line news sources. Every hour is archived and a 10 x 10 summary is also created for each day, month and year. In a sense, the project is a series of beautiful historical flash cards.
Thanks, Justin.
Sony Eggo
by Josh Rubin
This Winter why not use headphones as ear muffs? The Sony MDR-D66SL (better known as Eggo) headphones are not only super comfy and great sounding, they're the perfect solution for cold weather listening. The egg shaped housings are plain and simple and the speakers are angled to perfectly fit your ears inside the warm, cushioned casing.

Hough Waves
by Josh Rubin
Andreas Schjønhaug and Kristoffer Stenersen are Master of Science students at NTNU in Trondhelm, Norway who apply science to the making of art. Based on an algorithm created by Paul Hough in 1962, their Hough Waves are photographic prints that elegantly express symmetry and structure. Prints are available for order on their site in a variety of sizes as a single image or broken in to triptychs.
