OMG! I think Leica just made my head explode

If you haven’t seen it already there is an incredible set of unboxing photos of the Leica M7 Edition Hermès.  I am not familar with “the purse blog,” (purses are not my thing.) but these photos are some of best I have seen so far of the fashion edition of an incredible 35mm legend. 

Leica’s packaging is also some of the finest I have ever had the chance to remove. Lots of attention to detail in every element.I have a very small collection of Leica’s and the manufacturing quality and feel of these machines in your hands is amazing. 

The Orange of the Hermès edition isn’t really for me, but I find the contrast to be as startling as the asking price, $12,950.  But hey if you got buy one; there are only 200 of these to go around.

Introducing! Using video to introduce your product.

by Jeremiah Andrick on January 28, 2010

 

This video for the iPhone App WorkSnug is so very pleasing.  I made think about how terrible most intro videos are at giving us a sense of the impact of a new technology on our lives. The potential impact is huge but generally so poorly executed.  This particular video is short sweet and has a great use of focus as a tool to give you a sense of the impact of using the app.  I can’t wait for the app to be usable in San Fran and in Seattle. 

I want to start collecting both bad and good product intro videos, if you have seen any that you think are novel or even not very good send them too me.

NAMM 2010: a quick look

So this weekend I met a few friends at the NAMM2010 show. This was my first time checking out NAMM and there were some important announcements from my partners in crime at UE.  The image above is of the UE18, a six speaker beast of a in-ear.

That said, I walked around to check out some of the other cool products available to pro and amateur alike. You can walk through my favorite images below.  If you are into music, recording, or live performances this is your show.  It really was overwhelming.

I am with Conan.

by Jeremiah Andrick on January 14, 2010

Just thought I would say us ginger’s got to stick together. Leno hasn’t been funny forever. Help out by sending a EECB.

“Six years ago Conan signed a contract that promised he would one day sit in the same same chair as Johnny Carson and make us all laugh at a reasonable hour. He toiled, perfected his string dance, and passed up better opportunities in pursuit of that dream. Now they crush the dreams of Conan.”

21c Museum Hotel Louisville KY : My recon for future visits

by Jeremiah Andrick on December 30, 2009

L1030870

I have a niece in Louisville, KY that I am very close with.  So I make a trip at least one a year to Louisville. My trip has left me a little out of sorts (not quite a vacation), but during my holiday visit I made a quick little recon trip to a hotel that is getting a lot of attention, and that I hope to do a little more research on it for future visits.  The hotel is the first 21c Museum Hotel a concept hotel that combines southern charm, a hotel and well executed museum.

Truthfully, Louisville’s downtown is not where I spend most of my time as I find it to be a ghost town this time of year compared to the Highlands and Nulu area’s of Town, but it was worth checking out. I don’t want to say to much or make any judgments until I get a chance to stay overnight. If you are in the neighborhood, I recommend checking out the museum space, the bathrooms (also a piece of art), and Proof on Main (the bar attached).

Note: I was trying out a few features on my Leica and the photo’s are a little grainy; I put in my favorite.
