so today I went to take some pictures.

I have to write about this, because it’s so upsetting. I’m a designer. I was born in Hungary, spent the first 20 years of my life there, so I kind of care what’s going on over there. The image that I attached shows the London Crime map next to Hungary’s crime map that was released last year (!).

I’m not saying the MET Police’s map is perfect, it’s just there for comparison. The main thing is that in Hungary design is pretty much ignored. Especially at the higher levels, like goverment, police, etc. Innovation is ignored. They made the whole thing in Java. I mean just look at it?!

He’s posing for consumer products now and then
For every camera he gives the best he can
I saw him on the cover of a magazine
Now he’s a big success, I want to meet him again

the diversity of the projects I’ve been involved in the past 2-3 months is super inspiring.

here’s a close up of a UI design I’m working on currently.

(I’m purposefully sharing an image that basically says nothing.) :)

So I had to create a post about the fact that I saw Woodkid this Thursday in London. 

And I have to say it was an awesome experience. Amazing music and show. Really really breathtaking. 

That guy is a perfectionist and has created a very strong brand for himself. 

The video up there is from another concert though.

Meet Motala, a 50 year old elephant from Thailand who lost her front left leg in 1999 after stepping on a land mine left over from ongoing conflicts along the Thai-Myanmar border. When the accident occurred Motala was a working elephant who moved trees for a living. She was simply foraging for food in the forest when she stepped on the mine.

Although her owners tried to save poor Motala’s leg, the limb was so badly damaged that it eventually had to be amputated below the knee. It wasn’t until 2006 that she was able to receive her first artificial leg. It was only a temporary solution, but she successfully learned to walk on it. In 2009 Motala received her first permanent prosthesis, made for her at the Friends of the Asian Elephant (FAE) elephant hospital in the Mae Yao National Reserve in Thailand. Because prosthetic legs must be changed according to weight, Motala has been given other legs accordingly and received a new one last year, her third.

A documentary entitled The Eyes of Thailand shows the amazing moment when Motala took her first few steps on her first prosthetic leg. Check out incredibly moving video of that awesome moment here.
