Centre de Design de l’uqam
En ligne depuis hier, et si vous voulez mon avis -wow- superbe boulot, je suis franchement étonnée. La simplicité de la grille, un choix judicieux des couleurs, un style hautement européen très épuré font du site un des plus séduisant que j’ai vu dernièrement. Et vous savez quoi? Ca m’a l’air tout fait made in… Continue reading Centre de Design de l’uqam
Music videos
As i already wrote, i just can’t get enough of this song (of these adorable guys too– and oh, the video is just too cool). Also found via tangente.org, Fat Boy Slim: Slash Dot Dash. Je me souviens d’avoir entendu qqchose de très cool dans le genre, sur l’émission macadam tribu. Une chanson ou on… Continue reading Music videos

On aime de plus en plus ca
Comme antoine écrit sur son blog, le phénomène du blog commence à faire jaser les médias québecquois. En retard vous direz? Vaut mieux tard que jamais je vous répondrai. La tendance de l’heure consiste à documenter sa vie. Nous sommes en train de devenir des archivistes instantanés de notre vie. En un an, les blogues… Continue reading On aime de plus en plus ca
Expo Rudi Baur
Trouvé via Hippopocampe : Le vernissage de l’exposition du designer graphique Rudi Baur au centre de design de l’uqam est demain soir le 22 septembre à 18h. Bah qu’elle se dit. Je savais même pas.

Life
I should be reading but i am not. I should be drawing, but i am not. I should be painting, but i am not. I should be watching the third six feet under second season dvds, but i will do it later. Instead, i am thinking of monsieur p. He wrote me today about how… Continue reading Life
JPG Magazine
via antoinegirard.com: They’re called “photobloggers” – a sloppy term for sloppy times. They’re people who, armed with cameras ranging from cheap to expensive, film to digital, wander the streets documenting their world and posting the results to the web. In another time they would have been called artists. Personal documentarians. But we have a simpler… Continue reading JPG Magazine

“When it’s over, I want to say: all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was a bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. When it’s over, I don’t want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real. I don’t want to find myself sighing and frightened… Continue reading Mary Oliver
United States of the World
J’en parle parce que c’est une belle initiative et parce que c’est fait par des gens d’ici. We all know that i am not so much into politics, but these days, it’s kind of difficult -see impossible- not to care about it. Found via tangente.org: Since the end of the Cold War, the United States… Continue reading United States of the World

SPUNK v1
One of the first ‘online mag’ which i think is well done. I am surely sick of the flipping pages effect that many people tried to reproduce as in paper books. I think this one is finally up for the web and the design is just so slick. * SPUNK v1

Dating in 2004 (part 2)
Découvert sur Le blogue d’Organigramme, un concept pour faciliter la vie aux séducteurs. Génial! Moin génial, ca semblerait être une copie (presque) conforme d’une idée déjà existante…
Pecan pie
I, starting from today, will stop using ‘chumé’ as a nickname for my new friend, for a simple reason being that i can -now that i know him a little more and that he just doesn’t know what chumé means and i cant find the right word to translate cette expression qui nous viens tout… Continue reading Pecan pie

Bjork – Medulla
Her new album is out real soon. It’s gonna be something of a unique work of art: the music, arrangements, the artwork – absolutely all of it. She is one of the most original, creative and authentic pop icon of the 90’s (and of the years to come, i am sure). A swirl of inspiration,… Continue reading Bjork – Medulla
