get em Kanye

Kanye West may not be the very most inventive, original, or artistic person to have ever walked the earth.  He rips things off like everybody else, but he has good taste.  But most importantly he never limits himself or his imagination and anything he sets out to do is always done to the absolute max.  He's trying to push his genre and himself and I think those things are probably more important.  Get em Kanye.

Sendai Mediatheque, TOKYO!

Thought I would pass along a few images from a lighting research project I did last week.  Of course something like this only exists in Tokyo, and came from the fascinating mind of Toyo Ito, definitely a name worth looking up.  The form for this multi-media library is inspired by seaweed leaves suspended in water.  13 tubular steel columns support the structure, house all forms of vertical movement, and flood daylight from skylights in the top sections.  The dramatic effect of colored layers that appears at night is actually created from slight deviations in the flooring.  Magic!
