Exciting week, right? We’re off again soon, to visit friends in CT, but before we go: spend some time staring at Bela Borsodi’s incredibly-composed single photograph that looks like four, take a peek at 9tailors’ work for Northeastern rowing, read Stef Lewandowski’s exploration of little, big ideas, watch this kind of exhausting video compilation of […]

Last weekend we packed up sleeping bags, bathing suits and lasagna and headed to Sturdivant Island with 23 friends for a quick getaway. There were lawn games, board games and card games; we swam, we paddled, we ate, we drank and we got eaten alive by mosquitoes. (Turns out, the bug situation is very different […]
Today has been a whirlwind of exciting national news (I have some thoughts on that), so much so that my afternoon yesterday spent soaking up ideas with TEDxBoston was pushed to the back of my mind. But oh, what fun I had.
Neither Aram Bartholl’s 0,16 nor Dóra Maurer’s Printing till exhaustion are new works, but I happened upon the former last week just after scrolling past the latter, unattributed, on tumblr. Bartholl uses layers of paper and a light source to create a screen that pixelates shadows of the individual standing behind it. It’s an elegantly […]
We spent a bit more time in Maine than we had planned. Sunday afternoon brought some fierce weather, and we opted to extend our stay instead of facing lightning on the open water. This morning, though we were ready to hit the road bright and early, the supermoon caused a super low tide that left […]

It’s simple, but incredible. (Find more interactive projects from Cary and twin Michael on the HTwins site.) Then […]
We’re packing our bags, making a pit stop at work, and heading off to Maine for the weekend. Fingers crossed for sunshine and summer swimming weather! (Follow us on instagram for up-to-the-minute shenanigans.) Before we hit the road, a few recommendations: catch Bri Emery’s thoughts on the new video features in instagram (we’re still checking it […]
I first stopped by Beth Galton’s portfolio when I caught this photo, which reminded me of this post; her food idiom photo series is absolutely worth a look. (Some of them are challenging to guess.) But what really thrilled me was Galton’s Cut Food series. I’ve returned to these pictures more than once, and I […]
Paul Octavious has sparked a revolution. When the Chicago-based photographer began including correlating Pantone cards in his everyday instagram shots, he tagged them #thepantoneproject – and it’s catching.
New England: if you don’t like the weather, wait a minute. There have been a lot of ups and downs this spring, and yesterday’s weather surprised everyone and no one at all. We were just leaving Clio with my mother, having survived the storm unscathed and mostly dry, when this beauty showed up.
