Interersting read by 2 well seasoned photographers, Victoria Sambunaris and Peter van Agtmael, at Fader online. The deeper links with audio were not working for me.

Been pondering how to dive back into sharing some thoughts and inspiration. Then this hit me and seemed like as good a place to start as any.

Nice work Erik. Great type, great work, nice sharing. Thanks.

There is something about the idea of refinement that gets lost on a lot of work. Been thinking tonight that the right combination is:

OBSESSION » REFINEMENT

Congratulations Sarah Deann on landing the internship with Frank. Really nice work. Good luck.

Really great site re-design for the City of Philadelphia by happy cog. Amazing detail, even in the drop-down items. Take a look now and you can compare it side by side to the existing design.

It is hard to pick where to start with Frank Chimero, so I just picked his list of 10 ideas for January.

Really his whole blog is worth checking out, or if you are pressed for time read his Ethos section. Also, worthwhile is his flickr.

Wow, these don’t look like my younger brother’s doc marten’s.

Nice stop motion film from Lego. They also have a related site, legoclick.com Love how it says “Inspired by a million of true stories” at the end. Nice touch.

Song for the day:

“Party pooper, super duper.
Every party has a pooper.
That’s why we invited you!”

Photographer Terry Richards has started to keep a blog that he is updating almost daily with behind the scenes photos, personal shots, and his T-shirt collection.

Yet another reason for me to go out and buy Thomas Keller’s Ad Hoc at Home cookbook – he shares his caramel recipe with The Moment and the world.

Ok, have to head up to Evanston to check out Edzo’s burgers. First read about it in the NY Times Moment blog.

Great artwork for sale, including these hand-drawn matchboxes by Lisa Congdon.

Came to my attention because she has also started a Collection a Day blog.
