A Matter of Taste

Nice simple graphical treatment to a flash site built for tequilla. Its very sophisticated and simple. The way I like it. Not too many jarring colours or text to distract you. Just simple layout and seamless execution, plus the loading is pretty cool. Brings you into the story. lurves it..

You Give Me Something

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_Z2gwniy0g&mode=related&search=

Really like this song now. Slow, mellow, yet deep and moving.. Everybody now.. "you give me something.. that makes me scared alright...This could be nothing
..........But I'm willing to give it a try............Please give me something
coz someday I might know my heart...." I find myself crooning and swaying each time I hear this on the radio. Very emotive.

You want to stay with me in the morning
You only hold me when I sleep,
I was meant to tread the water
Now I've gotten in too deep,
For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away.

'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright,
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try,
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might know my heart.

You already waited up for hours
Just to spend a little time alone with me,
And I can say I've never bought you flowers
I can't work out what the mean,
I never thought that I'd love someone,
That was someone else's dream.

'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright,
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try,
Please give me something,
'Cause someday I might call you from my heart,
But it might me a second too late,
And the words I could never say
Gonna come out anyway.

'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright,
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try,
Please give me something,
'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright,
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try,
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might know my heart.
Know my heart, know my heart, know my heart..

The Prestige

http://theprestige.movies.go.com/

Went to watch this movie. It was good and impressive. The plot had some loopholes though. Started well enough. 3/4 till the end, the writer probably got stuck and shortcut his way through to a climatic but not bery intelligent ending. Throw in a pair of twins, a magician, 2 doors, and a electric bolt and what have you.
Seriously, the concept was good. I just though it could have been better.

#01.
Why would Christian have distracted Hugh to Teslan??? And if he knew about Teslan, he would have expected a scientific comeback from Hugh would he not.

#02.
Shouldn't Fallon have been exposed since he was caught in the box!! Hello!!! How convenient. Surely the stagehand or Hugh would have seen through the disguise.

Okay, enuff bout gripping. It was well executed nonetheless. And Chris and Hugh were delicious eye candies. Slurp!!!!!!

Stella Im Hultberg

Stella's illustration and painting style is really good. She brought me back to my teen years when I started out illustrating girls, pixies and fashion pieces. I smiled as I chanced upon her works. Simple happiness.

Her style reminds me of Klimt with the sinuous body curves of the female form. Intimate yet faraway detachment of the subject. She has a distinctive style that is hauntingly beautiful.

 

 

Think Different - Here's To The Crazy Ones

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Think_Different

This was an inspiring read. Very good concept and copy writing. I loved it. I feel the same. Wonderful Campaign. Moving, Simple and Clean. Bravo.

Here's to the crazy ones. 

The misfits.The rebels.The troublemakers.The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently....

They're not fond of rules

And they have no respect for the status quo.

You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them,

disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.

About the only thing that you can't do is ignore them.

Because they change things.

They invent.     They imagine.     They heal.

They explore.   They create.        They inspire.

They push the human race forward.

Maybe they have to be crazy.

How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?

Or sit in silence and hear a song that's never been written?

Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?

We make tools for these kinds of people.

While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Because the people who are crazy enough to think that they can

change the world, are the ones who do.

I Love Taiwanese Babes

Ha. I"ve always loved Hip-Hop, Ah Yue's Lazy Youth Angst. Bochupness and catchy tunes. This is a cool crappy combi of these little pleasures. The lyrics & lingo are really cool, light, humourous, sarcastic and a funny dig at society. Would be lovely if you can understand and appreciate it. "I Love Taiwanese Babes..

The 1819 Sticker Movement

http://1819supermovement.com/

Unless you're a history/geography/knowledge fanatic, a freak or just plain local. 1819 would probably be just a collection of useless numerals strung together for nothing.. Well, here's a little graphic graffiti concerto... hur.. Fun. Cheeky.
Least they try.

Sony Walkman Microsite

http://www.sony.com.sg/walkman/product/main.html

Really nice clean white space treatment. Especially liked the music selection console
with the dancing Silhouette as backdrop motion. Really cool. Simple sliding effects between the different pages/arenas. Nice. Sometimes flash gets too complicated for users. Simple and straight to the point effects and aesthetics are sometimes a better answer. No more headaches..
