Go Mines

The new Hoover Dam bridge is complete… with huge Mines influence. If I were to remain in the civil engineering program when I actually applied myself in school studies – one day they would write up a project like this about me.

This was a gigantic engineering feat and a very interesting read.

[iDevice Link] <— 295 views Straight from Creativity

Japanese agency Drill Inc. got back to nature in this stunning spot promoting the wood-encased NTT DoCoMo SH-08C phone, set for launch later this year. The agency created a giant wooden xylophone in the middle of the forest. A wooden ball rolls down the instrument to play the keys, each of which make up individual notes of Bach’s Cantata 147, aka “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desire.” According to Drill Inc. creative director Morihiro Harano in the NYTimes, the xylophone was the real deal and no soundtrack was added.

Lets go ahead and start recapping our favorite projects made from wood – or bamboo.

Level 1 — Parker White Does Japan

[iDevice Link] <— 5,467 Straight from the horses mouth... can't wait to see more skiing content drop regarding Level 1's new movie "After Dark."

“Monster athlete Parker White made his way to Hokkaido, Japan with Level 1 for two weeks in February to chase pow, pillows, and Japanese schoolgirls. The crew saw as much sun as snow for the duration of the trip, but a few smaller cycles dumped enough snow to make it all worthwhile. Parker gives us the rundown on his first experience in the Land of the Rising Sun, and a look at some of the B-shots and outtakes. Stay tuned for more updates, info, and behind-the-scenes antics from Level 1’s Fall 2011 release, “After Dark.”

TC Bank – Dream Rangers

Genius.
