There’s some absolute gems in here. 10 minutes of film genius:

Alan Partridge on ‘Interaction Design’
Alan illustrates a hierarchy of alerts within the dashboard / fascia control system of the Rover 200. Wait for the reaction to the 2nd suggestion from Lynn.
In the Linton Travel Tavern car-park Alan is completely bored and has called Lynn into the car for some ‘paid conversation’. He’s further exasperated as he doesn’t know why his Rover make an alarm noise when he turns the key in the ignition. For the last ten minutes, he’s been exploring the possible reasons for the alarm. Lynn’s suggestions serve only to force Alan to explain a few things about in-car control systems.
Stephen Fry on ‘Swearing’
FUCK YEAH!! Makes me feel a bit better.

Are you an After Hours Athlete? Puma Social, by Droga5
We all sat up and paid attention to this new work by Droga 5 for Puma. Love the strategy, the tone of the language and the look of the film. Executionally our only gripe was with the casting. They’re a bit too uber-hipster for our liking. (via)
Have a look and see what you think.
Blurb and credits below.
PUMA Social honors the After Hours Athlete. Forget calorie counting, fitness training, and hydration levels. PUMA Social is all about the playfulness in after hours sports. From ping-pong and foosball to darts and karaoke, we give a nod to the athletes whose goal of scoring a phone number precedes the goal of scoring a bull’s eye.

Emulator – is a multitouch Midi Controller designed to work with tablet PCs, stand alone multitouch LCDs, and rear projections screens. Rave on.
The work of Julien Vallée
Graphic designer/art director Julien Vallée makes graphic design and typography tangible by pulling it out of the computer and constructing his art out of actual physical materials
Have a look at this picture. It’s amazing
It’s Neil Armstrong on his way back up from the Lunar surface. Look how knackered but happy he looks. One of the best portraits ever taken.
Waiting. A YouTube ‘Buffering’ Animation
Love this concept of ‘animation based on a familiar configuration’.
“Waiting” is work in progress. More colour and movement is added over time.
