These Massive Mirrored Dishes Could Make Solar Cheaper For All
Using simple materials also helps. “The reflective material we use for the mirror facets are similar to that of potato chip bags.”

Graphic Design-Now In Production, Contemporary Arts Museum Houston
The Contemporary Arts Museum Houston is pleased to present Graphic Design-Now in Production, a major international exhibition that explores some of the most vibrant graphic design work produced since 2000, including posters, books, magazines, identity and branding, information graphics, typography and typefaces, and film and television title graphics. The exhibition is organized around eight themes: Posters, Magazines, Books, Information Design, Branding, Typography, Storefront, and Film and Television Titles. Graphic Design-Now in Production is co-organized by the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, and the Smithsonian’s Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, New York.
Graphic Design explores the worlds of design-driven magazines, newspapers, books, and posters; the expansion of branding programs for corporations, institutions, and subcultures; the entrepreneurial spirit of designer-produced goods; the renaissance in digital typeface design; the storytelling potential of film and television titling sequences; and the transformation of raw data into compelling information narratives.
On view until September 29, 2013. More info here: http://camh.org/exhibitions/graphic-design—now-production#.UgG8AKXfb0d

Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful, that’s what matters to me.
Steve Jobs (via moneyisnotimportant)
Not to mention doing something innovative and non-logical that in the end paid off big time.

A person or organization instilled with that discipline is constantly seeking a fruitful balance between reliability and validity, between art and science, between intuition and analytics and between exploration and exploitation.

process work - promotional poster for INTERSECT: a documentary. this work proves challenging: difficult to promote something that doesn't exist. but the process is kind of a backwards evolution. by executing the promotional aspects, i'm better able to visualize the final product, motivate myself, and draw myself a road map of how to get there.

"The difference is whether they also incentivize the organization to work together, urgently, for change. An organization tackling sustainability challenges in siloes isn’t as effective as one that has clearly defined its priorities, collectively, and knows how to make the case to its business critical audiences. Achieving really bold goals is possible when employees have the freedom to innovate. In most companies, this requires a culture shift and the right incentives help speed up that process.”
