(18 May 2006) -
(18 May 2006) -
Last week’s Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) 2006 Spring Show was the overwhelming hive of creativity we’ve come to expect from the school. A chance for the student artists of ITP to introduce their ideas and projects to the public, the exhibition showcases a range of futuristic concepts to a capacity crowd. In this episode—the second time Cool Hunting Video has covered the event—we take a close look at a virtual pop-up book, a drawing machine, sculpture inspired by sunlight, and an orchestra made of zippers.
Suckadelic's Supervillians
(18 May 2006) - I don't think that you can be any more niche than the Sucklord. He makes bootleg action figures, but unlike some who knock-off action figures, he updates well-known figures to suit his own evil needs. Perhaps you recall Gay Empire, the pink Storm Trooper that he released last year? If you missed that one, you have a rare opportunity to check out his new...

The GIF Show

Cool Hunting Video Presents: Milano, I Saloni
(28 April 2006) -
(28 April 2006) -
Now in its 45th year, Milan's annual international furniture fair is the largest of its kind, featuring over 2,500 exhibitors and attracting over 200,000 international visitors. This year the event inaugurated its new sprawling location at the Fieramilano. Designed by Massimiliano Fuksas, the €750M structure is the largest and most technologically-advanced trade fair complex in the world.
We sat down with Manilo Armellini, the Managing Director of the Saloni on a late Friday afternoon. What began as a conversation about the enormity of the new Fieramilano slowly became a discussion about the heart of Italian production and the reason why so many designers choose to produce in Italy.
We decided to allow the interview to structure a dynamic visual journey through one of the world’s most venerable design exhibitions. Enjoy.

The result of a year in the studio, the finely-wrought instrumentation has a late-Beatles feel, incorporating...
