This short film is by urban anthropologists Andy & Carolyn London. They animated commonplace objects off the streets of New York using the voices of New Yorkers they had interviewed. (via joanna goddard)

I LOVE NY, AND VICTORE, AND GLASER…
Next week I will be attending a one week design workshop at School of Visual Arts. Ten years ago I did the same, only that the conductor was Milton Glaser. This year it will be James Victore. Quite funny to find both names on a plate designed by James including his version of the famous «I love NY»-logo by Milton Glaser. Too bad that plate costs a fortune!
A PLACE THAT FUELS CREATIVITY
An amazing paper sculpture seen at the MoMa.

KINDA’ COOL PACKAGING
On a stroll in ultra-hip Chelsea I came across the apothecary of (Malin+Goetz). The clean and simple packaging caught my eye. Furthermore all products contain natural ingredients and nothing is tested on animals. I bought myself a bottle of the lotus root perfume (shown in the picture), which is designed for both, men and women. Very nice! Check out their website.

CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT JACK’S COFFEE…
There are many coffee shops here, that claim to have the best, but Jack really does! Recently awarded Best Coffee in 2005 by NY magazine he attributes the rich, full-bodied flavor of his delicious drip coffee to the stir brewer, a device of his
own invention that oxygenates the grinds as they brew and
reducing their acidity. There's also his proprietary blend of
politically correct beans-certified organic, Fair Trade, and
shade-grown-micro-roasted up in Vermont.
The pastries are delightful – not too sweet and very fresh. I’m addicted to the pumkin apple muffin.
The atmosphere at Jack’s Stir Brew is perfect coffee-house - relaxed. Families mingled with village people. Starbucks can never duplicate such an authentic and personalized experience.
Jack’s Stir Brew is located at 138 West 10th St. between Greenwich Ave and Waverly Place in Greenwich Village. www.jacksstirbrew.com
