UNICEF: The Power of a Glass
4 Mar
UNICEF‘s newest campaign for clean drinking water in those nations that need it the most is “The Power of a Glass”. The campaign features a spot created by Droga5 and directed by Skunk’s Brent Harris. The spot captivates you from the beginning, not only letting you know the power of a glass but letting you feel it.
The UNICEF Tap Project will invite restaurant visitors during World Water Week, March 19-25, to pay $1 or more for the tap water they usually drink for free. But, even if you don’t go out much, donations are always welcome, helping the world enjoy the safe drinking water most of us take for granted.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: Robotic Edition
2 Mar
Comedy duo Diani and Devine created this kickstarter video to raise money to re-write and print The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Only they replace every instance of the n-word with the word robot. This is hilarious. And real. They ended up raising over 400% of their goal… and they’re printing. Just. So. Funny.

Suitcase Charging Station
2 Mar
One of the things I hate the most when decorating is figuring out where to charge things. In addition to cords strewn about, you have random electronics sitting around. And if you’re anything like me, your electronics aren’t always the newest and coolest looking things…
That’s why I love this suitcase charging station brought to you by Design Sponge. While the project seems slightly difficult, if you have an electric saw and a steady hand perhaps it’s not too bad! Check out instructions with helpful detailed pics here!

Blogologues
1 Mar
“Blogologues is a comedy group dedicated to making the Internet live. In a devastating combo of online videos and live performances, they take blog posts and other wacky material that probably shouldn’t be read out loud, and they… read them… out loud.
Their life began as a NYC-based theater group that takes the online, offline. All of the material is direct from the internet, verbatim, and mostly uncut. Now, due to OVERWHELMING DEMAND, Blogologues is taking their offline-online awesomeness…back online.”
This video is one of Blogologues’ skits from the blog post “Baking Cookies To Help Chase The Winter Blues Away” from blog.cookies.com. Blogologues took this very serious post and made it into a hilarious and revealing skit. Check out more of their videos on their new and developing Tumblr.

Snow Drawings
1 MarThis slideshow requires JavaScript.
Sonja Hinrichsen is a brilliant artist who creates artworks that examine urban, industrial, and natural environments and their intersection with human perception and utilization. My favorite featured artworks by her are her Snow Drawings. Hinrichsen and volunteers use footprints to create beautiful drawings within the snow, creating a piece of work that elegantly combines nature and life’s impact on her. As I said before, brilliant.

The Sartorialist
24 Feb
Scott Schuman started The Sartorialist with the idea of “creating a two-way dialogue about the world of fashion and its relationship to daily life.” During his trips around the world for various fashion events and getting his work in the likes of Vogue, GQ, Victoria & Albert Museum and Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, he takes photographs of people on the street with a style that fascinates or inspires him. And in the process, he has managed to fascinate and inspire thousands.
