Incredible, inventive VW flash site
I spent quite a bit of my Saturday morning exploring the Fox Volzwagen flash site. Definitely worth the load time.

Behind the scenes studio visit with FAILE
Last week Mark posted about FAILE’s upcoming show “lost in glimmering shadows” at Lazarides Gallery in London. Manuel Bello from FECAL FACE DOT COM was reportedly lucky enough to be blindfolded and led to FAILE’s undisclosed studio locations.
The dewds from FAILE have been up to their old tricks again and added a big-ass bag of new ones. I have been pretty fixated on these guys work for some years now and every time I feel like they can’t impress me any more, they do. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to swing by their undisclosed studio locations and pretty much get the run of the place while they dialed in the last minute details of their London schooling.

If you’ve ever had the impression you were unique, I’ve got a project to share with you.
Exactitudes kicked off 14 years ago when Rotterdam-based photographer Ari Versluis and stylist Ellie Uyttenbroek noticed that their city’s youth were expressing their mass nonconformity by wearing nearly identical outfits. (The name is a mash-up of exact and attitude.) The project grew exponentially from there — you’ll meet tattoo babes, grannies, punks, and preppies — and its excellent website now includes subjects from London and Paris. (They, too, look eerily alike.) The overall effect is cool but disconcerting: Isn’t this how Invasion of the Body Snatchers began? (Via VSL)

Faile are returning to their early aesthetic influences growing up in the Southwest by channeling appropriated Pop cultural renderings of American Indian culture into their trademark heavily layered work in a pointed commentary on “the expanse of contemporary commercialism at the expense of society’s connection with nature and spirit.”

An interesting article and photo documentation of some of the studies going on over at the Royal Acadamy of Art in The Hague
Dutch Design can be seen in one light, only design for designers themselves. On the other hand, its a reflection that Design can be pushed intensively to its best creative extent than just for commercial sustainability.
