Damon Sheeley of The Bear and The Sea had released his full-length album Tress Like You and he has been kind enough to share it with you. I have been a fan of his for a while and each track that he releases puts you into a different space and time. Trees Like You is a lot like its title, the leafy and fleshy stuff of our very existence – you need it in your lives. Also check out his EP Everything is Everything on TCL. So hit play and enjoy and spread the word of The Bear and The Sea.
Want to have more control over your devices without using camera-based gestures? The Myo Gesture Control Armband ($150) is a new innovative input device that communicates with your PC, Mac, Phone, Tablet over Bluetooth 4.0 and uses proprietary muscle sensors as well as a 6-axis motion sensor to track your movements. The muscle sensors are advanced enough that it can detect changes in gestures down to the each finger, and because your muscles pick up the signal to move before they actually do, you may see it respond before you even move. How crazy would that be?
Emily Shaw a California based designer did a great job for her 4th year design course of re-branding the timeless photography company Kodak. Her concept was to focus on the pro side instead of the masses and she was able to give Kodak a fresh, clean, and minimal design. I think she did a great job on keeping the focus but giving it a new look. Kodak should be hitting her up for her design. View more of this project on Behance

Couldn't find to much information on this hut but it is quite nice to look at. This 693 sq. ft. studio was made out of scavenged material and T1-11 plywood siding. For it only being 693 sq. ft. it looks to be quite spacious and cozy to warm up anybody's cold winter nights into brisk spring evenings. Designed by Olson Kundig Architects. More info. here.
