Written and directed by Chris Milk, The Wilderness Downtown is an stunning interactive collaboration between Google Maps, Chrome, HTML 5 and Arcade Fire. It’s the best example of a viral campaign I’ve ever seen. So, so stinking gorgeous. Crank up your speakers and prepare to be wowed as the internet does things you’ve never seen before.

Perfect way to start the week, which also coincidentally marks my 2yr freelance anniversary too.

Site specific environmental art by Andy Goldsworthy. For the most part he uses no tools besides his hands and whatever surrounding natural materials he can find to painstakingly construct each piece. At the mercy of the elements, some works are gone within a matter of hours, collapsing and scattering on the wind or tide. Found via Rivers and Tides, a documentary on Andy’s process, which happens to be on demand on Netflix at the moment.

Luscious one-of-a-kind hand carved wooden spoons by Nic Webb. Via Honest Fare.

Beautiful, beautiful work by Dutch/Australian design studio, Toko.
