the dystopianest dystopia ever from Jon Murray on Vimeo.

Here's an interesting look into the future of the human race. While we might be led to believe that we will meet our collective ends at the hands of a meteor, or an invading army of unibrowed aliens or even at the hands of our re-animated love ones, we apparently simply give in to the soft glow of our mobile devices. How anti-climactic is that? Yet, it's strangely logical, too. This short was written, directed and produced by freelance copywriter, Jon Murray. You can see a full credit list after the jump.

We have a confession to make. A few of us are here at The Egotist are really into watching fashion forward shows like Project Runway and All On the Line. There's something really cool about watching these designers take their concepts and create amazing clothing under the pressure of deadlines and the threat of competition. Good stuff.

We just came across this beautiful dress by local fashion designer, Alex Hungerford. The 50's inspired draping dress was created with a very specific customer persona in mind. As Alex describes:

“22-year-old Chloe has often been called an old soul. Instead of spending her weekends at the local bars, she would rather be knitting herself a scarf while playing her favorite records. When she's not working at the campus bookstore, you could find her searching for her next treasure at thrift stores or shopping at her favorite boutiques around town.”
