Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson Hollow Book by HollowBookCompany

One of the coolest gifts one can possibly give or receive in tribute to the late Steve Jobs is this pretty cool book that seems to highlight the impact the iPad has had on the publishing industry. Give it another seven or so years, books of the future will look exactly like this one.

Although a little more symbolic, and now off track. The book itself is a tribute to the history of Steve Jobs, but the hollowed out version from Hollow Book Company continues to bring forth the inspiration that we once remembered from good ‘ol Steve.

Blasting Towards the Past

When the dreamers and imaginations from those of the past thought of the future of information. They imagined having every book, document, map, reference. They dreamt of magical dial systems so elaborative, that one could call for poetry, fiction, non-fiction, history, drama, philosophy in multiple languages. With the advent of miniature photography, galleries, sculptures, architecture could all be gazed at from under the microscope. Mounds of information could fit into a single postcard where public reading could exist.

Red Bull Creations

It was a hot sunny Sunday New York afternoon and thousands showed up to McCarren Park in Williamsburg, Brooklyn to check out the Red Bull Creations event challenging top inventors to build something imaginative and inspiring.

The crowd was sun blazed as two large screens overseeing the main stage with musical performances projecting audio and visuals into the audience by musical performers. By midday, the music stopped and talented teams of inventors were introduced on the left and right side stages of the park.

NYC Subways underground

I just don’t understand why our subways look total post war. Every stop is just filled with filth and dirty trash cans. Other subways outside of New York are so clean, they can afford carpeting, pillow cushions, but new york’s underground is a hellish hole for rats and dirty drippy ceilings infested with rustic debris. The stores that surround these stations are the worst batch of them all. I would never want to eat at these stations, or get my hair cut. The stations on the subways are just ridden with over flowing trash bins, conveniently located by the best places to sit, once the stink of the last man there leaves the area. A haven for homeless riders to find a warm place to sleep.

Back to the Future 4

This vintage poster set gives our current modern day internet technology networks a humorous spin into our past. Like stepping into the 1950s of the DeLorean time machine and seeing how things once were. However, these posters do not stray too far from the truth, in how these online giants portray themselves to their online communities.
