Corinne Vionnet 'Me. Here now'

New photobook by Corinne Vionnet: Me. Here Now.

"Ms. Vionnet is photographing tourists at Sacré-Coeur, the beautiful cathedral at the highest point in Paris. (Photographing up explains the subjects’ repeated camera positions.)

Though it’s a great essay, pictures like this don’t need words to explain why they’re unsettling. We all know our lives are moderated by machines, more and more, with each passing year.

This is indisputable.

It’s gotten to the point that people mainly communicate via the machines, and not IRL. (You know, in the same room, through sound waves emanating from one’s vocal cords.)"

You can buy it here.

What happens when your phone gets stolen

A short movie by Anthony van der Meer.

"After my phone got stolen, I quickly realized just how much of my personal information and data the thief had instantly obtained. So, I let another phone get stolen. This time my phone was pre-programmed with spyware so I could keep tabs on the thief in order to get to know him. However, to what extent is it possible to truly get to know someone by going through the content of their phone?"

Confide - Self-Destructing Messages

Can't wait till I can download this app on Google Play. Android version plse! Confide let you send messages that self destruct after these have been read. How cool! Real 'private' messages. Telephone numbers, addresses et cetera. Ofcourse terrorists can use this too. The Good won't exist without The Bad.

Sniff Your Food

Economic crisis. No money to spend. This Japanese app for your mobile phone, Hana Yakiniku, will save you money. Boil some rice, pick a dish on the app. Put the little contraption on your phone, smell and eat the rice. I wonder, does it work? Or does it make you even more hungry? Or is it April 1st already?

S.M.T.H. - Send Me To Heaven

Apple denied this app. Typical. Let people take their own responsability. If they want to throw their phone in the air ... let them. I won't. Good tool to measure how many stupid people there are.

"'Send Me To Heaven' is a real Android app (Apple denied it) that measures how high you throw your phone in the air.
"S.M.T.H. (Send Me To Heaven) is a sport game. Player throws his phone as high as he can. The higher, the better. The phone registers the height and uploads result to leader boards."

Projecteo

What a cool project on Kickstarter. I want!

"Projecteo is a tiny Instagram projector. It uses wheels of 35mm slide film you make online and each one holds nine photos. Whether they're of your best friends, that holiday last summer or good old pictures of cats, just pop them into Projecteo, focus by twisting the lens barrel and sit back to enjoy your slideshow."

Simpel - Parrot

THE best dutch tv commercial at the moment. Simpel is a mobile operator. They don't do credit checks when you apply. These are hilarious.



The one with the parrot: no translation necessary, the parrot is telling you what's the deal but the cat is in the way, parrot tells cat to go away. That simpel!



The one with the dog: Dog starts: It's unfair. Voice is complaining that the dog spends too much time at the phone. Threatens to install a 'ceiling', a block for making calls. Dog says this is 'stupid' because it's for kids.
