“The most powerful engineering feats are the ones we don’t notice. The real power of engineers and developers is in turning something incredibly complex into something amazingly simple. The automatic transmission in a car represents significantly more engineering work than a manual transmission. The best works of the automobile industry, urban architecture, and consumer electronics express how great engineering is focused on hiding complexity, not reveling in it.”

“Many know Nathan Shedroff from his days as Creative Director at vivid studios, the pioneering information architecture and design firm that’s now a part of ModemMedia. Before then Nathan was a student of that Wurman guy and worked at RSW’s TheUnderstandingBusiness. We look back with Nathan on the good old pre-Web days of information architecture and learn that not a lot has changed.”

Yay! “Featuring sushi rolled into beautiful works of art: butterflies, dragonflies and flowers. Try my nori-maki sushi recipe & find out about sushi history. I decided to create this page to share some of my favorite things I love about Japan and the Japanese culture: good food, delicate sushi, beautiful music and colorful cartoon characters.” The page loads a midi; you may want to turn your sound off.
