Motion artwork video from visual artist Takuya Hosogane. There isn't much info here or on his site about the methodology, so I'm assuming it's all directly his design work, and not generated algorithmically through the sounds.

I like to imagine Jonathan Ive and James Dyson -- tank-topped, schnapps-drunk, and enthusiastically slap-fighting over who's fancier.

Topps moves into the virtual goods market with "Wacky Digibles", a kind of reissue to the 70s product parodies, Wacky Packages. http://www.lostwackys.com/Wacky-Packages/

From vinyl to CDs to mp3s to the cloud.

There's a gallery exhibit at the Anneneberg Space for Photography, in Century City, which sounds like a must-see. I went to a different show there a couple of months ago, and it's an exceptional place.

Recently, I've posted a number of articles on this trend, and yet more reinforcement keeps popping up. This is a look at gaming, particularly social gaming. While the article doesn't delve into it's counterpart, console gaming, it's not hard to connect the dots.
