If illustrators made cakes and chocolates what would they look like and how would they taste? The Belgium based, Eugene and Louise Bakery, is the answer to this sweet, sugary, candy sprinkled question. Even though quite old news, (their last product being posted back in March) I only discovered them recently, so I thought there must be people out there needing this tasty bit of knowledge too.
Dreamed up by design studio and lovely couple, Eugene and Louise. There seems to be chocolate treats and marzipan character madness from the site, but no price or other details, so I’m not sure if they are just for exhibition, or we can actually take a bite out these lovely pieces of art.

Danger Danger! Generally smoke signals signify an attack! And if you were in and around Trafalgar square but unawares last week, you may have been given quite a fright! Alien-like light transmissions were beamed across the historical heart of London, in an attempt to mix ancient and modern forms of communication. The ICA, with the help of design & architecture outfit Minimaforms, hosted a special interactive event where members of the public were invited to send an SMS to the Memory Cloud, where it would be displayed as a mixture of light and air smoke signals. Check out photos of the event on the Memory Cloud flickr page.

Our source of inspiration today is Dan Tobin Smith. You’ve probably heard of him, if not… actually, no trust me, you have seen his photography. Having worked for such clients as Sony, Coca Cola, Orange, Bacardi, John Lewis, etc… the high profile projects go on and on.
His attention to detail and creative compositional set-ups, are a feast for the eyes. We particularly love the Typographic photographs, depicting E, V and A (hopefully he will create a full photographic alphabet in the near future). Other work can be described as controlled chaos, with a strong sense of movement, tension, like the objects are about to burst out of the scene.
Please enjoy more of his beautiful photography at http://www.dantobinsmith.com/

Many of you who read TC are probably not Flash developers, and as a result you most likely haven’t seen the video tour of eBoy’s studio, over on Lee Brimelow’s Flash Blog. Lee and Mike Chambers (who features in the video) work for Adobe and, as a result, have been working alongside eBoy for the recent Adobe Air launch poster and accompanying t-shirts. They managed to corner the eBoy crew for a video tour of their studio, where they talk about the way they work, some of their old work and even demonstrate some of their pixel-art techniques on-screen for us all to admire. It’s worth watching just to check out all their various work on the studio walls and bookcases!

Now we all know how important it is for us to drink our milk, but there are an incredible amount of great campaigns out there to make sure we don’t forget. The latest one we’ve come across is the Must Drink More Milk campaign (top image) which is a series of short ads featuring some great stop-motion animation from people like Bent Image Lab. Then of course there’s a host of online stuff for Got Milk? (middle images) such as the mock-star White Gold and the award-winning Get The Glass interactive board game. In the UK there’s more milk stop-motion fun to be had from Cravendale (bottom image). You can watch one of the Cravendale ads here and also make your own video here.
Got any other great milk ads you like? Then post a comment and let us know! Now go drink some milk!
