Digital art on canvas

Vincent Fraser and Massimiliano Panzironi are featured artists at createyourart.co.uk. The fine art prints on canvas use fade-resistant inks, which means that 70 years or so hence, the colors will still appear as fresh as today.

Some of the canvases contain the same graphics that are used in Shufflesome designs. Compare PASSIONE to the images found here, and CIRCUS to the images found here (there are no permalinks—you have to click through).

From createyourart.co.uk/profile:

So our philosophy is to source the latest printers, keeping us at the forefront of this process. Many of our competitors will produce their own prints on outdated equipment.

Although it is not obvious to me whether sourcing the latest printers means that they own and opertate the printing machines, or that they collaborate with printers, i can only echo the philosophy.

Photo of GOLDEN CURRENT

trudell_gc_ipod_391.jpg

A larger version of this photo, taken by Margot, shows how the print merges with the background color of the iPod. This sticker is part of the super edition: It's an edition of one design so far, LOL. Super, because the color prints on transparent vinyl are translucent, not opaque.

These are rather experimental stickers. As the color used in this design is orange, you can imagine that this color will intensify, when the color of your iPod is orange as well. Likewise, when the color of iPod is green, this will also intensify the effect.

Yesterday you were 12 people short of tilting the price. You can do better today. #shflsmprice

Análisis: Skin Shflsm para el iPod shuffle

From a review by Samuel Campos at applesfera.com:

Las skins de Shflsm para el iPod shuffle son realmente geniales, por un módico precio le podemos dar a nuestro reproductor “un nuevo aire” además de protegerlo ante posibles arañazos.

#shflsmprice: a keyword coupon to move prices

#shflsmprice is a keyword i use in some of my Twitter messages. You can follow #shflsmprice tweets to learn about price movements. You can use #shflsmprice in your own tweets to move the price yourself. Think of it as a coupon.

The prices for Shufflesome stickers are linked to the amount of daily visitors. I invented this "game" a couple of weeks ago to encourage more visits to shufflesome.com. Setting prices is no longer a bastion of corporate guesswork. Participatory pricing i believe is more in tune with the way of the Web. Read here how #shflsmprice tweets enable you to invoke price discounts:

/play

I have improved the description at /play, where you find daily updates about the price movements. The timer indicates the time left until the next price check. When that time arrives, the page reloads to give you updated information. You can manually refresh the page to make sure you haven't missed anything.

Next to my Alexome tweets, i'll sign up Shufflesome with Twitter. I'll connect my Shufflesome-related tweets to this website. Then you can hook up to whatever happens here (price movements, changes on the website, addition of new designs) and nudge any of your 3000 contacts (perhaps 5000?) to swarm over here and participate in setting prices.
