the famous post-modern pixel artists eBoy have done it and released an unique and addictive tilting puzzle app. think of the game labyrinth and add in their pixel art for a spin on things. it all starts out easy, but as you progress the puzzles get progressively more mind bending. some are so difficult you need to spend some time thinking on how to solve them. special thanks to delicious toys in berlin for developing this app for my favorite art subversives eBoy!

Being Renzo Piano [iPad]

abitare.it

a graphical and interactive compilation of the known architect and designer Renzo Piano as framed from the lense of Abitare (the italian architecture magazine). the experience on the iPad is actually very elegant and diverse. it offers a number of different methods to interact with the content, multiple swipe variations, click and touch, zoom, and traditional scrolling. the imagery and content speaks for itself. This foray into the digital realm and specifically for iPad for a classical publication like Abitare is inspiring. expensive (£9 or $11) but well worth it.

super simple interface to select the spots you think are the differences in this classic game translated to the iPad touch and swipe interface. the photos remind me of high quality stills from some hollywood films. the coolest part is that there are not any points, time limit or any text at all! its all just you and the photos comparing minute details until your eyes bleed. enjoy.

very deep featured avatar creation app based on thick illustrated vector graphics. the designers dadako used to run an online ‘facemakr’ avatar creation service where you would send a headshot and they would assemble a likeness based from their kit of parts. now they have constructed this all into an app so you can do one yourself. i have done a number for my family and its pretty darn good! this one looks kinda like me but has more hair. follow @facemakr for updates and news.
