Thermal Imaging Art

A couple of practice shots from the NEMO parking lot during today's sleeping bag testing with the thermal camera proved to be kind of beautiful in a way...
Note the temps, my hands were chilly. I wish I had been the one in the sleeping bag, not the one taking pictures.



Maybe if that doesn't hit your art sensibilities, you'll appreciate the spin art version.

A Delicious Wood Sandwich

Check out Tom Sachs' ode to the indispensable plywood:


We love plywood, too.

Cardiff Kook Finally Gets Surf Lesson (from Pterodactyl)

NEMO's SoCal rep Dan D. sent over this little golden news nugget last night. The Cardiff Kook, a 16 foot tall bronze statue just off the PCH near San Diego, CA had a little makeover Saturday night. Forever immortalized in an awkward stance (whether as an homage to novice surfers or as a failed attempt at depicting a floater), the Cardiff Kook has had its fair share of tough times.

Saturday night, an elaborate volcano/palm tree backdrop was set up behind the statue, complete with a pterodactyl poised to pluck the Cardiff Kook from his frothy spray.


Definitely in the top 3 of Cardiff Kook-isms, no? Check out some other doozies:

Where's NEMO

Here's a picture of the Volkswagen Beetle our friends Freely Creative in nearby Vermont are in the process of covering with their beautiful work. They've been an awesome partner for us...you would not believe how many stickers we make with them every year.


We're psyched to be in such good company with all sorts of sweet outdoor and ski industry brands/resorts. You won't see any flower or smiley face stickers here...

A free sticker pack goes to the first three people who send back the image with the NEMO sticker circled. With the red and white, it's a bit of a throw back to Where's Waldo. Send your image to journey@nemoequipment.com.

Great tribute today on the Google homepage to notable sculpturist/artist Alexander Calder.


Is it just me, or are they nailing these home pages lately between the Les Paul guitar and the Pacman game (all playable).
