Scion x Kogi BBQ

posted by jordan

Scion x Kogi

This is possibly the greatest thing to have ever happened to me! For those that live Los Angeles, hopefully you’ve already experienced Kogi BBQ. If you haven’t, I’m sure you’ve seen the spectacle. The Korean BBQ truck announces their roaming location on Twitter (@KogiBBQ) and then it generally turns into a mob scene in front of their window for the next 3 hours as the mobile units dish out their Korean BBQ, served Taco-Truck style. Not only is the BBQ delicious (they visit my neighborhood once a week) but Kogi has gained a cult-like following of foodies out on the prowl for delicious and cheap eats.

Seeing an incredible opportunity for innovation, Scion has stepped in and kicked Kogi into high gear by designing the Kogi BBQ Scion xD. Designed by MV Designs in Santa Ana, the one-off was unleashed at the Los Angeles Auto show this week and has completely stolen the show. Continue reading “Scion x Kogi BBQ…”

Light Graffiti.

posted by matt

lightgraffiti7
Personally, I find calling this ‘light graffiti’ a bit of a misnomer. Regardless, what these dudes are doing (whether you like it or not) is pretty stunning. I love light painting, but I haven’t come anywhere close to what these guys are doing. This work is from the German crew, LAPP-Pro. I’m not as into the conceptual images so much, but it’s all pretty spectacular to me. From their site:

LAPP originates on a real-time basis directly in front of the camera. Created between opening and closing the shutter. The pictures shown here are in each case one single photo, not a result of working on the computer. With especially developed light and luminous tools they are projected on the sensor. Within a performance, form and colour by light arrange such complicated figures and light forms.

I’m on a mission to find said ‘luminous tools.’ Images after the jump.

Turn your iPhone into a Toy Camera!

posted by jordan

At this point my iPhone is pretty much a staple in my life. I practically ask it what I’m going to eat for dinner. I’ve always loved the camera but since I usually have a point in shoot in my pocket, my iPhone’s camera rarely sees much use. That all changed last week when I stumbled on an application set created by Takayuki Fukatsu of Art & Mobile. Takayuki has created one of the simplest, yet elegant additions to the iPhone since headphones. With apps such as QuadCamera & ToyCamera it’s easy to instantly re-create a toy camera effect out of your iPhone.

I was totally blow away by how easy it was to come away with a vintage lomography feel on an iPhone photo and I’ve been downright obsessed with it! Follow the jump to check out some randoms from my iPhone then go download this bad boy right here!

Featured Product: Sony Party-Shot

posted by matt

This might turn out well, it might not.

Sony’s newest party endeavor poses some questionable outcomes. The ‘Party-Shot’ is essentially an automated camera mount that works with the DSC-WX1 and DSC-TX1 cameras. It uses the cameras’ BIONZ image processor (used to identify faces and smiles), to take pictures for you and your friends with 360° rotation and tilt capability of up to 24°. I fear for the girls at the party once that nerdy tech-dude figures out how to make the mount tilt up to 90° and sets it on the floor.

Not sure how well this will work, but once Sony sends us one to test out, we’ll be sure to let you know. Releasing in September ’09, this little bad boy will only run you $150.
