inforgraphic from 2010 illustrating where musicians make money (and how much) in the digital era..

I'm particularly interested in this because I'm going to be starting a small record label with some friends this summer, and while we can predict the profitability of a certain distribution medium from a consumer's point of view, having the data laid out like this is very helpful.

I was always curious about it. The article was written in 2010 so I think musicians must earn more than in 2010.

About Found Objects Claire Randall, shadow box artist and wife and mother of three, must choose between her old traditional family life or a new creative life made possible by her family's house fire and her new living arrangement: a motel. Watch the trailer. http://foundobjectsfilm.com/about/found-objects-movie-trailer/

This was an absolutely incredible experience. Watching the trailer opened my eyes to how a fire could affect a family and the emotions from the film really hit me hard especially when they were searching through the rubble trying to find things to salvage and the look on their faces. I found it interesting that she was finding herself and creativeness through the shadow boxes after the fire "freed" her from the duties of being domestic wife. It also illustrates the struggles a family if one wants to have a creative, art filled life and still lead a traditional family life. I cannot wait to watch the entire movie when it comes out. For me the film raises the questions: do we really need a traditional family in this day and age to feel complete and how does our relationships affect the "true" you?

A little bit entertainment. This recreation of 'Gangnam Style' always keeps me entertained and laughing. They incorporated a lot of scenery and places on U of O campus to illustrate the ducks and got a lot of people to join in and take pride in our school.

I agree with this! Even though this is not going on anymore I found it so entertaining to see Oregon and many other schools compete to get the best 'Gangnam Style' video. I liked how you were able to see the aspects of our school through this. Very funny way to showcase the beauty of our school.

This video is awesome! Whether people understood all Korean lyrics and the hidden meanings of the song or not, they made it really great. It reminds me of an idea that art (mainly focusing on entertainment in this case) does not have no boundaries at all.

Mesmerizing Imagery

Pixiv is a Japanese online community for artists. It aims to provide a place for artists to exhibit their illustrations and get feedback via a rating system and user comments. Works are organized in an extensive tag structure which forms the backbone of the website.

PicLab HD is a nifty app for creating those inspiring images that you get all over the internet these days. You know, the ones featuring a photo - probably with at least one retro filter applied - with a helpful aphorism layered over the top in an attractive, friendly typeface. Yeah, those. PicLab HD makes them an absolute doddle, enabling you to either snap a photo or grab one from your photo library, then go to town on it. As well as adding typography - lots of fonts and full control over size, positioning, opacity, rotation, and colour - you can also layer illustrations, ornamentation and other design elements on top of your image. PicLab HD features full layer-based editing and also packs plenty of tools for making your original photo look its best, with loads of lighting and film effects to choose from as well as preset photo filters and adjustment tools for fine tuning the brightness, contrast, exposure, saturation, and the blur level of your photos.
