Cooliris



CoolIris, once known as PicLens, is a browser add-on that allows users to surf the Web graphically. The News category, for example, appears as a scrolling, three-dimensional wall of thumbnails. Choose one thumbnail and the image expands to fill most of the screen, revealing a caption and a link to the news page on which the photo appears. Instead of choosing content according to the headlines, Internet users can find what they want based on images. So far, the application has been downloaded 10 million times and is used by photo enthusiasts, as well as tech types and “avid mainstream media consumers,” says the company.

One of the channels that CoolIris offers is called Photos of the Day. While some of the images in that channel are sourced from premium providers like AFP and Getty, since March 6, 100 photos each day have been selected from user contributions submitted by photographers through the company’s Flickr group. Selections are made on the basis of quality and relevance, and the top photos are released throughout the day within hours of being submitted.

"Autumn's Delights"


Scott Brooks (his Bitter Pill is shown above,) Andy Haynes, and Marie Barr join forces to present a group show titled Autumn's Delights at Distinction Gallery. Yep, it's already autumn. We don't know where the summer went either, but just get over it and enjoy the fact that Distinction is putting on a great show in honor of the delights of fall.
Opening October 11, Autumn's Delights will remain on view through November 1, 2008. Make sure to hit up the reception with these great artists on October 11, from 6-11 pm. But, if you can’t actually make it out to the Gallery in person, we snagged a sneak peek just for you. http://www.juxtapoz.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=4439&Itemid=1.

London Design Festival



Wonsuk Cho's work was very popular at the Designersblock exhibition, especially the X Ray lights and the Movement Bookcase with its bendable limbs. Taschide also had an excellent display of new pendant lamps and knitted Sea Urchin cushions. The Solar Sanctuary shade canopy from Jo Angell was a fabulous piece of work that hung over the stairs for all to admire (the colours were perfect). The idea behind the modular canopy is to provide easy-access shade where needed.
