Orange

Orange has always made a statement in design....it is my favourite colour...I love that orange hue when the purkinje effect takes place in the evening....It appears in the fashion cycles....looking around the stores in melbourne it is currently the most prominent new colour appearing on shoes ,shirts ,watches ,towls ,teapots and clothing ....So its timely that Ian Wongs 'Orange' an exhibition is currently being shown at the Design Gallery in Collins Street, home of the Design Institute of Australia (DIA).

Nullarbor Racers

.

Hi All the latest lesson in my Entertainment Concept Design class is concepts for a
Nullabor racer.. a vehicle for high speed runs across the nullabor desert shown here is some of the first concepts

Vehicle can be petrol diesel steam electric solar or whatever you can think of.

Because its in the future the vehicles would be built from scrap but built by craftsmen.

Parts could come from farm machinery,aircraft, cars, trucks, trains 44 gallon drums anything laying around

The vehicle concepts are high speed racers for quick runs across the nullabor desert.

New Cintiq 24 HD

Yesterday I had a chance to trial the new Cintiq 24HD which apart from being windscreen and full hd quality like my DTU I have currently switched to, it reminded me of my old hydraulic drawing table
The new Cintiq 24HD has a host of new features to enhance workflow and user comfort. The new 24-inch HD (1920 x 1200) widescreen display provides realistic color for color-critical work. The ergonomically designed counter-weighted stand allows users to adjust the incline and height of the Cintiq for multiple working postures, even allowing the display to extend over the edge of the desk and float just above a user’s lap. Furthermore, the frame around the screen is designed to be a resting place for the hands and arms, providing easy access to the Touch Ring and shortcut and modifier Express Keys™ located on both sides of the Cintiq. The Cintiq 24HD incorporates Wacom’s most realistic pen experience, featuring 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity and 40 degrees of tilt control.
