HIBERNATION VIII

The ongoing series HIBERNATION is investigating subconsciousness, and the sometimes grey boundary between truth and fiction. It is a personal project, using man and his relationship to the landscape as an investigative tool. Based upon real places and events, this series intends to catch moments when our daily reality and our subconscious world sometimes strike each other. Challenging our cultural references to darkness and the unknown, the work is inspired by the unique light and atmosphere of the "blue hour." This transition after sunset transforms the familiar into something foreign yet beautiful, inviting reflection and new interpretations of our surroundings. With...

The MAD EasyLoad: A Ceiling-Mounted Electric Loading Crane for Vans

https://invidious.privacyredirect.com/watch?v=jIoxaCf7hEY

Vans are great for hauling bulky items, but sometimes the trick is how to load and unload those items. Dutch vehicle outfitter MAD solves that with their EasyLoad, a ceiling-mounted electric loading crane.

The beam extends roughly 6 feet outside of the vehicle, and has a maximum weight capacity of 500kg (1,100 lbs). It runs off of 12-volt power. And when retracted, it can be slid side-to-side along the ceiling, in case you need headroom on one side or the other.

You can also order longer cables, for lowering loads...

A Unique (Filipino?) Design for a Folding Table

I've seen plenty of folding tables in my time, but never one that works like this:

That one belongs to Through the Porthole, an L.A.-based furniture reseller. Following the post below, it's surely been sold by now.

While the provenance of the design is unknown, one of the commenters states "This is the table used by the street vendors in the Philippines." A short investigation turns up a manufacturer called Shelves Philippines that sells a similar design:

If anyone knows what this table is called in Tagalog, please let us know in...

«Скелет» как состояние компонента и экрана

Столкнулся с дизайн-системой, где у всех компонентов отрисованы состояния «скелет» — это типа как выглядит элемент, пока он не загрузился. Дизайнеры вообще говорили «скелетон», но скелетон — это такой бобслей для одиночек, а skeleton — это скелет. С этим состоянием есть проблема, сейчас объясню.

Пока экран приложения загружается, вместо индикаторов загрузки хорошо показывать скелет экрана. Тогда вместо того, чтобы привлекать внимание к тормозам, мы создаём у пользователя впечатление, что экран почти загрузился. Секундные задержки перестают ощущаться, человек успевает сориентироваться на экране.

Так что же не так с состоянием компонента «скелет»? То, что скелет — это состояние экрана целиком, а не отдельного компонента. (Если уж на то пошло, у компонента может быть состояние «кость», а не «скелет».)

Во-первых, рисование отдельных скелетных состояний компонентов провоцирует дизайнеров на рисование излишне...
