Project Runway Season 10 - My Designs!

As you may know, I like to do a blog post (and sometimes even a live blog) for every episode of Project Runway (currently in its 10th season). I put pictures of my designs at the end of each week's post. In case you missed them, however, here are my designs for the first two challenges. (I draw them in my Moleskine sketchbook). In the past I have just sketched in pencil, but for this season I have started adding color.

You can check out some of my older designs (from season three!) here and here on my Flickr page.

Orange

I used to take a lot of photographs. I would sometimes do photo challenges on Flickr. These are pictures I took when the challenge was "orange."

The other day when I was writing about literal videos, it got me thinking about THE literally literal video - Jonathan Coulton's "Flickr." Coulton is cool (in a geeky sort of way). He did a project called "Thing a Week" where he wrote a song a week for a year. Most of his songs are kind of geeky pop culture inspired tunes such as "Tom Cruise Crazy" or the Zombie tune "Re: Your Brains." Check out the video for "Flickr" here:

Flickr: Jonathan Coulton (YouTube)

In it, a fan (?) puts Coulton's song which was inspired by images seen on the photo-sharing website to pictures of the things he is describing in the song (it makes more sense if you just watch it).

Plus, check out this entry in the Urban Dictionary (here).
