From the page: “The artistic duo Joschi Herczeg and Daniele Kaehr create light illusions using highly complex pyrotechnics. In their series Explosion, they built a custom-made detonator, which is connected to the cameras and synchronized to snap a photo at the very moment of the explosion. In this way, they were able to capture motion and time in a split second of an explosion.”

From the page: Today, Pantone, the global authority on color announced the addition of 336 new shades to the Pantone Plus Series, bringing the grand total to 1,677 colors. The inspiration came from the Pantone Goe System, which adds depth to the color library, and the new spectrum reflects this. The new tones enrich the Plus Series palette, by providing a wide variety of saturation and undertones – from pale pastels, mid-tones to rich deep hues, as well as, the essential neutral and bold bright tones.
