Video: How Is This Done?
Silke Sieler is a motion graphics designer based in Hamburg, Germany. Sieler loves abstract things, strange details, loud music and lots of ice-cream and her vision of motion design is food for eager eyes. Her last short abstract movie is dealing with nature and maritime creatures, metamorphosis and transformation, connecting art and science and Sieler dropped out a special “get addicted to …” cut down version: Sending out a WARM SIGNAL to the world.

José Parlá – Walls, Diaries and Paintings
I found this and wanted to post this like 2 hours ago but fucking WordPress got cyber-attacked, so without further ado….
God is “a shout in the street.” So begins Greg Tate, channeling James Joyce, in “Walls, Diaries, and Paintings,” artist José Parlá’s new monograph of past and present work. It’s a conviction that has perhaps never rung more true as the particular modern art movement that Parlá helped define continues to take shape. First made famous by the likes of Jackson Pollock and Cy Twombly, the sentiment was further romanticized by the subway graffiti artists of the 1970s and ’80s and is now a gallery mainstay.

Tool Of The Day: Chris Brown
Chris Brown is known as a singer, and he should stick to that. These photos were taken last night and in typical Chris Brown fashion, he looked like a douche. I’m way past the Rihanna incident but this guy drives me crazy to the point where I want to punt a Jack Russell terrier off a bridge every time I see a picture of him. Most people already knew dude couldn’t dress, but this blonde hair shit must come to an abrupt stop. He just reeks of douchebaggery. That’s my two cents.

Blackberry Messenger To Expand?
Blackberry has made the quantum leap into phone apps. They will now unleash Blackberry Messenger to Android and soon iOS (iPhone).
BGR:
BGR has learned from multiple trusted sources that Research In Motion is planning to bring its beloved BlackBerry Messenger app and service to Android, and eventually to iOS as well. According to our sources, RIM has not yet finalized details surrounding timing or pricing, but we have heard that the company might make the software free to all users. We’re also told strategy is still being developed, however, and RIM may end up charging users a one-time fee or even a recurring fee for access to its BBM service on third-party platforms.
It might seem a bit strange for RIM to want to bring the software that is responsible for keeping BlackBerry devices in the hands of countless potential defectors, but in the big picture, we think it could make sense. The company is getting very frustrated with applications like WhatsApp and Kik offering third-party experiences based on a concept RIM invented, and RIM apparently wants to own the space.
As far as what Android and iOS users can look forward to, we’ve been told RIM will offer stripped down versions of the BBM experience BlackBerry owners know and love. That way, Android and iOS users can communicate with practically anyone who has a smartphone using BBM, but they might not be able to share photos, location, or videos (when RIM crosses that bridge). Users who want the full BlackBerry Messenger experience will still need a BlackBerry smartphone to get it. At the same time, RIM could own the entire messaging app category on every major smartphone OS platform and could potentially draw new users in because it has given them a taste of what BlackBerry Messenger is all about.
Right now, we have heard that Android is definitely a go. But again, we’re not sure on timing, though our sources are confident that it will launch some time this year. RIM chose Android first because of the fact that it could develop and integrate something like this much easier with an open platform, but the plan is to build and deploy an iOS version at some point as well.
