Good friend and great Austin based photographer, Adam Voorhes, has released some photographs from his project photographing malformed human brains. They are part of a collection of human brains collected by the Texas State Mental Hospital about 4 decades ago. Check out the series as well as the explanation Adam did after the jump.
I have been seeing HTML5 used in increasingly interesting ways recently for the purpose of storytelling. The New York Times’ new piece titled Snow Fall: The Avalanche at Tunnel Creek does just that and is simply amazing.

If you happen to pick up a copy of the August issue of WIRED Magazine flip through to the Alpha Geek feature where you’ll see some new work I shot for them. The story covers the work of Professor Vaughn Bryant who helps organizations track the true source of their honey based on the pollen contents found inside. In other words, he’s a forensic botanist. If you happen to be on an iPad, the Newsstand version of the magazine has a couple of extra photos to flip through as well. See some of them after the jump.
I was going to try to explain this video, but decided that I can’t, so won’t try. It was directed by Kevin Parry and shot by Andrea Nesbitt for Kalle Mattson. When you’re done watching the video, check out the cool animated gif gallery of the effects they created here.
I’m floored by this video produced by BBDO Brazil and director Cisma for Getty Images. It is comprised of over 800 unrelated Getty Images, and tells a story from “Love to Bingo”. Check it out after the jump and be as amazed as I am.
