GROW THE MO

okay so this isnt strictly design based but its a great cause and movement....
ITS the beginning of November... HOW is it november already?
Yesterday marked the start of the month and the start of a time to get hairy. WIth the first of the month came the start of Movember, an annual month-long event raising funds and awareness for prostate cancer. The idea was born over some beers in Australia, when a group of men decided to bring back the mustache partly as a joke, and partly to raise money for the number one cancer affecting men. Just a few years later, Movember is a global movement which raised over $42 million for prostate cancer research last year alone.

The rules are simple: Register today at Movember.com, shave your face and start growing that 'stache. There are all sorts of tools to help you get started too, including a pocket guide, a free mustache party kit and a list of prizes to help get you motivated.

LIGHTY LIGHT

WOWZERS...
The installation Type Case is a low-resolution display with 125 rectangular pixels of different sizes. These are formed from the reflecting light of digitally controlled LEDs, embedded in each section of a European printers’ type case. Due to the standardised fragmentation of its compartments, the density of visual information is decreased towards the objects’ centre. Viewed close by, it is nearly impossible to recognize more than a flicker – however after moving some distance away, it becomes distinguishable, that the lights and shadows give a representation of the latest headlines...

IMPRESSIVE
