Georges at Centre Pompidou
Restaurant Georges has some of the best panoramic views of Paris, and the interior design is the work of Dominique Jakob and Brendan McFarlane. The menu is a brilliantly simple double-sided sheet that complements Georges visual aesthetic, as well as the food. More images after the jump…
Dynamic 3-D Light Cube
This 3-D art piece was near the Sahara tent at Coachella. The individual lights looked like ping-pong balls, but they were individually controlled and each could fluidly change color independently. The entire thing was computer driven, and would produce unique displays across the array. To sum it up, the thing was bad ass. Even more bad ass for the twenty-something glow-stick crowd.
Coney Island
Without further adieu, let the slideshow games begin. Here are some goodies from my visit to Coney Island. The Atlantic Ocean is cold.
The Moon as storage
What might look like a bit of innocent littering by Astronaut Col. James Irwin of Apollo 15 (spacesuits ain’t got pockets?), is instead a makeshift memorial for earthly objects. Col. Irwin had a second, more symbolic, mission to transport a few personal objects to the moon. A gold medallion with his families fingerprints, a piece of magma from Oregon (a gift) and a picture of a gentlemen who’s dream it was to travel to the moon. Human stuff gets everywhere. Where do they train for these missions? Hawai’i of course.
Dolphin Quest
Saturday. Molokai channel. Dolphins.
