The biggest news story in tech is arguably the NSA leak, by whistleblower Edward Snowden. Its ramifications with regards to personal privacy, of course, are HUGE. Never have the words “Big Brother’s Watching” been so appropriate. My question is this: if the government says there’s nothing to fear for citizens who do no wrong, why [...]

The industrial “cheese grater” design that Apple developed and carried though for ten years is now history, seemingly replaced by a sleek, black, cylindrical structure that now takes on the mantle of “Mac Pro”. I watched the WWDC keynote last night, and initially I admit that I was more than smitten with the new design. [...]

Earlier this week, I chatted it up with storyboard artist / animator Ted Seko on how attitude impacts art and how art conversely impacts attitude – and how attitude has affected my own work and vice versa. Give it a listen. -Krishna Similar Posts: Man vs. Art vs. Krishna Man vs. Krishna on Man vs. [...]
