I went searching for an app called "Cool Hunter" and found this video on Ian Hundley talking about his quilts, and this soothing video of Venice Beach posted on The Cool Hunter today. I remember reading a New Yorker article a few years back about this new thing called "coolhunting". Well, judging by all the stuff you get when you google those words that term is pretty well embedded in our culture and language at this point in time. When you check out The Cool Hunter, PLEASE look at the hilarious video on Iceland (posted 2/28/11). Talk about promoting a country!!! And then there is coolhunting.com, here, which brings me full circle to the place where the app came from.
As you can guess, Ian's work is right up my alley! I love his work and just discovered it in Lotta Jansdotter's new studio book. Cool site!
ReplyDeleteHis work is great, and Kathryn should form a group of map quilters ;-)
