The Oldest Living Things in the World
I have posted about Rachel Sussman’s Oldest Living Things project before and she just sent me the latest addition: the 2,000-year-old brain coral that she photographed underwater in Toabgo last month. Spooky and fascinating at the same time!

Condensed letters for your kids room? YES! Makes me happy.
How to Transform Your Hoodie into a Computer Sleeve.
A hoodie is not just a hoodie. In a world full of stuff, smart items should be transformable, editable. They should engage the possibility to be transformed into something else. We do not need a new object, a new thing. Rather we need to get rid of some of them, to reduce the complex network of things around us.
Just undo it is a collection of reversible objects that could be made from a hoodie at no cost, no particular knowledge nor tools. See how to videos here.
Instructions about how to make a computer sleeve were published in the last issue of WIRED Italia.
(Thank you Antonio)

Nutcase Helmets | Adult Sizes
I am officially in love with Nutcase Bike Helmets. How much fun can a helmet design be? I had NO idea! The earlier posting this morning was for kid’s sizes, these here are grown-ups! Yay!
Triboro Design | Leftovers
Triboro Leftovers is a compilation of unpublished type treatments, photos, sketches, illustrations and logo explorations that we have created over the years. Rather than allow these to remain lost on our harddrives we decided to set them free. We mashed together elements from hundreds of different projects—and in the process—deliberately stripped the elements oftheir original context and meaning. The results are visual remixes which stand on their own.
Helmet and Dots = Awesome
Dear Nutcase, could you please consider offering these Dot Helmets in grown-up sizes? Thank you.
