Cubism: Square Traffic Light Concept

Traffic lights are an annoying but needed accessory to our daily life. When I used to drive, I’d get incredibly irritated with those new traffic lights that don’t show you what color it is until the last possible second. Now Art Lebedev is hoping to switch things up with these colorful, LED-powered square traffic lights. While red, green and yellow lights will be familiar, the shape of them gives them a new look that most drivers would welcome in a heartbeat. Let’s see if Audi can detect these.

What about you? Would you like to see some new traffic lights on your street corner that resemble these?

Panos Cube photo effect for Photoshop

_1

Some really cool things can be done with Photoshop. Most people really don’t want to spend the money to purchase a plug-in to do something that you can supposedly do yourself. But dammit if it isn’t a whole lot easier. The Panos Cube effect from PanosFX allows Photoshop users to add pictures onto a cool looking cube graphic in 18 different varieties. 9 effects for the one picture option and 9 effects for the three picture option.

The only needed tool to create these gorgeous cubes is Photoshop CS or higher, and Adobe Reader for reading the manual. Of course, this effect can technically be done if you were to do it your self, but who wants to spend hours on someting that can take a few seconds? For $9.99 you can create cubism in a jiffy. — Andrew Dobrow
