Hey,

check this out, it's an adobe-sponsored color scheme site!
I used this site A LOT for different design stuff, mostly digital.
But it can totally help when creating for example mood-boards.

Light Installation next to the Willyburg Bridge

to all the 'burgh hipster, does anybody know what the three light installations are on the house on the right side of the bridge when you come walking from Manhattan (the Peter Luger side)??
It's next to the water...

ah man, can't describe it better!

It looks like giant LED lights that change color fluently... and it's beautiful!

Graffiti Research Lab

Hey ppl,

the GRL (Graffiti Research Lab) is a really really cool artist interface/group "dedicated to outfit graffiti artists with open source technologies for urban communication", as they put it on their website.

They for example did a light graffiti thing, which is really impressive (hint hint)
