We appreciate anything that helps us procrastinate if it is both A) free and B) entertaining, and bonus points if it can fall under the guise of “productivity” / “learning.” Enter Kern Type, the site that makes a game out of adjusting a word’s kerning (spacing between letters).

When we first heard of the One-Second Film Festival, we were skeptical, immediately conjuring up picturesque montages à la Planet Earth. I mean, what’s one second really good for, besides some artsy scenic shots? We were pleasantly surprised, though, after watching 60 of those seconds put together (above). Our favorite is the guy with the balls…

We are honored to call Nooka’s Matthew Waldman a friend and, more so, they are a great inspiration to all of us. It comes as no surprise, then, that two of their watches have been added to the permanent collection of the JIDA Museum in Japan. And that’s not even the best part.
