You're looking at a batch of Gregories, the froggiest iPhone Cozies around. As noted before, Gregory is a finalist in the Next Big Thing design competition at Fred Flare. There are 27 finalists in total, and they are being presented one a day at the Fred Flare Blog.

While posting Alconic's audio cassette nostalgia to the Shufflesome Blog, I remembered a photo i took, which led me to more tape nostalgia:

Granted, shuffling music is not much different from going linearly through music. An array of songs is always consumed one by one, whether you are a careless shuffler, a frequent skipper, a gapless album fanatic, a 400+ playlists junky, a constant rewinder, a grouping expert, or a singer-songwriter yourself. There are simply various modes of listening, of progressing through audio, of wading through emotional airwaves. The terms conflate in meaning and the question simply becomes: How do people feel, when listening to music?

I felt harpooned. Which is more epic, the experience of the whale hunt, or the experience of the interface?
Image: That's me, fed up with sloppy hair stylists.
There is nothing like a bushel of hair at the mercy of a dedicated hair stylist. Nobody is more invested in the fluff on my head than a dedicated hair stylist. No one gets to shampoo-massage my head the way a dedicated hair stylist does it. If she is dedicated, she can picture in her mind the shape of my skull and the density of hair population on my scalp.
No lover, no mother has that kind of grip on your head, compared to a hair stylist - if only she is dedicated.

Soy sauce can save lives. The thinking is as follows: "If my food tastes good, my family will eat more. If my family eats more, they'll get more nutrition. If they get more nutrition, no one will get sick. If no one gets sick, no one will lose a job. If no one loses a job, the family will be in harmony. If the family is in harmony, a new generation can be born." Unlike anywhere else in the world, great taste ladders to good health.

We believe that two important aspects of art - as creative vision and as therapy - are not seperate. Art can teach sublimation and transformation. Art can give hope. Art can shift one's personal suffering into the suffering of humanity. This what it is to be human.

Some things are bigger than life. Shufflesome stickers are definitely not. They're tiny. They are made for a tiny but awesome music player, the iPod shuffle, by Apple. Check out the designs at shufflesome.com.
The artists with whom i work come from all corners of the planet. I run this project like a workshop. You bring your crayons and take a stab at the design template. Then i snap with my fingers and before you know, your little fantasy is a real thing.
