Simian Design

These are my delicious links for September 15th:

• 14 Cool Concept Motorcycles – Some are functional, but not practical yet for mass production, while others really push the envelope in terms of creative design. I prettty much love all of them. The Icare, the Ferrari, the Speed Racer Alien… all cool. Very very cool.

These are my delicious links for February 4th through February 5th:

• A Snake of Unusual Size – Neatorama – HOLY CRAP BATMAN! This snake, this monster measured 42 feet long, weighed about 2,500 lbs., and slithered through the rainforests 60 million years ago devouring crocodiles.
• Great retro Helvetica ad from Linotype – This is fantastic.
• Monks in Space (an Aliens3 movie that never was) – There were many iterations of the Alien 3 script. One of the more exotic ones was the Vincent Ward & John Fasano "monks in space" script, illustrated here. Looks fantastic.
• Infrastructure for Modern Web Sites – A great list of ways to address some of the pain points of building and maintaining a modern website.
  List is split this into two sections. The first he calls “below the line,” which are more system level (some things straddle the line) The second section, which he calls “above the line” are common application level components that typically depend on one or more of the components above.
