I stumbled across this brilliant blog called Fuck Yeah Rings, which documents amazing rings from all sorts of sources; photoshoots, photography, music videos, strangers on the street. 
Another interesting example is the Head to Toe installation. Four pods around London take short videos of the heads, bodies or legs of the people standing in front. Participants can use the arrows to flick through different combinations. The pods are situated at the Design Museum, Selfridges, Covent Garden or Ideas Store.
This kind of digital interaction looks set to be the future of exhibition design, as the trend for consumer-generated content continues to grow.
Really love the amateur, polaroid style of these images, photographed by Gregory Derkenne. From Annabelle magazine, found on wetbehindtheears.
Was just reading up about Vivienne Westwood for my dissertation topic. Discovering more about her work and views has given me a new found respect for Viv. This is an extract from an article written about her in the Guardian.Fashion is not art because it is ephemeral. She is quite firm about this. You design what you consider to be the perfect pair of trousers, and then three seasons later you are required to design another pair. "It's annoying." Big claims for the symbolic value of fashion annoy her, too. Anna Wintour, the editor of American Vogue, says that you can tell as much about the world from the fashion of the day as you can from the front page of the New York Times - Westwood thinks this is just silly.
"It's not a microcosm. It's not a view of the world. It's just an item, really - more or less like the urinal, perhaps, for all I know." She pauses. "It's an expression, an applied art. It's life-enhancing. It's not culture. It's not what Anna Wintour says."
Couldn't agree more.
