A blog of aggregated miscellanea and things I like uncovered from my daily travails. I'm Jacob, a peripatetic interdisciplinary designer of British persuasion, having interests in gastronomy, fashion, technology, interiors and sustainability. I'm currently working on online e-Commerce and identity. I dig Macs, mountain biking and smelly cheese.

‘Ya Allah’ by Laya Project. (Make sure you stick with it passed the 30sec mark, and check out the Laya Project for a stunning film and more excellent songs from around India and south Asia.)
Clip from ‘The Endless Summer’ (1966) by Bruce Brown. A brilliant and supremely narrated surf movie, that I’d recommend even to those without webbed feet. It’s an ethnographic classic of the modern TV travel-show, and although the narration early in practically bordered on xenophobia, it’s all in the vein of wit. “Apparently sharks and porpoises have yet to integrate in South Africa.” Grab a copy, or if you’re not convinced watch the original trailer (but like modern trailers, it gives rather a lot away!)
