Vimeo’s videos get iPhone, Android-friendly - CNET News
“Video host Vimeo on Wednesday is launching support for users oniPhone/iPod Touch and Google Android devices. The company has re-encoded the entirety of its staff picks and HD video showcase, both of which are the most heavily trafficked areas of the site from Vimeo’s members, and referrers like Twitter.”

I am offering a free download of the entire 132-page Public Domain 2 artbook. It’s about 115 megs, nicely high res, and looks great imported onto my iphone and ipad. It represents about a decade of sketches and random art.
If you like it, please pick up a copy of the signed and numbered ltd ed print book! Khepri’s selling the remaining stock, both editions, and its the only place you can pick it up. There will be no further editions of the book beyond this. Also be sure to check out the mini-screenprints.
Enjoy!

Governor’s Island, one of the possible sites for the new applied sciences campus.
Needless to say, the interest has been palpable. This week, we formally received 18 proposals from 27 academic institutions around the world to develop the new applied sciences campus. The institutions that submitted the responses are…
