A Sunday in Hell
A Sunday in Hell is an incredible Danish documentary about the famous one-day ride in France. The Paris Roubaix. One of the oldest professional rides in road cycling. The first edition of the race was in 1896. Famous for it’s rough cobblestone sections that are no longer used for driving. The race is challenging and treacherous. Claiming many inner-tubes from its challengers.
The documentary is incredibly well done. Not only a great cycling documentary, but a great movie in general. Directed by Jørgen Leth. The film chronicles the 1976 edition of the race. The movie gives great sense to the ride and atmosphere from all aspects of the race.

Vintage Irish Book Design
In honor of the Day of Green, here are some Vintage Irish Books. I could spend all day here, looking at all the amazing archives, but I’ll have to come back to it, because I’m off to enjoy a pint of Guinness for breakfast.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, everyone. Slainte.
Clear for iPhone
I can’t remember the last time I anticipated the release of an app for my phone. I’m not a huge app user, I have my favorites, but I’m not always on the fox hunt for something new and amazing. Then, came along Clear.
These are some of the best use of the multi touch gestures I’ve seen in an app. The design is simple and void of—seemingly from the video—of any, or many nuances.
