The folks over at Coudal make some killer videos for Field Notes, and this one is no different. In fact, it not only will sell Field Notes, but it will also put all of other creative guys to shame this Valentine’s day. Thanks a lot Coudal. Check it after the jump.

Not that I have $2,500 lying around for a wall clock, but if I did, I’d buy this one. It’s a wonderful idea and is executed very nicely. If you’re Mitt Romney or the Colbert SuperPAC and are looking to unload some cash on somethin’ rad, pick one up here.

I could write a whole slew of posts about this subject matter, and maybe I will one day when I’ve got the time, but for now I’ll send you to the Wall Street Journal. They’ve got a great article on the ins and outs of applying for a job at a big organization. Long story short, they are saying you need to tailor your resumé a bit for each employer to help make it through some of the automated resumé filters people are using nowadays. Software motivations aside, this is a good idea either way. You should always tell people who you are and what you’re capable of with a resumé, but more importantly it should hint at why you’re completely suited for the job you’re applying for. Check out the whole article here.

Last week I was asked to photograph bad boy of literature, Tucker Max. After nearly a decade of writing about his mid-20′s exploits, his final book in the Frat-ire genre is coming out tomorrow. The Daily published a feature yesterday on their iPad only newspaper app, but you can catch the article online, as well as a couple other portraits that I shot of him here.

This is the coolest thing I have seen in a while. The New York Public Library has created a site called the Stereogranimator where you can create animated GIFs and 3D anaglyphs using more than 40,000 stereograms in their library. It’s a fantastic selection and well worth the perusal.

This animated film is truly spectacular. What’s more awesome, is that it is supplementary to an interactive story as an iPad app. The short film is up for an Oscar, and rightly so.  If you have some time, give it a watch. Book lovers, try not to cry.   Watch it here. (more…)

The rings on a cross section cut of a tree can tell scientists a lot about the conditions of its surroundings at different time periods as well as the overall age of the tree itself. But it can also help us tell what the tree sounds like thanks to this fancy record player-like contraption that uses light and some other electronics to transcode the rings in to piano notes.
