Open Source Goodies from Soso

Semantic Sabotage's Black List effect

As part of our ongoing studio education, we try to thorougly document our learning process. From internal workshops to experimental studio projects, we try to leave behind organized notes and code. We return to these materials regularly to refresh our memory (or get new teammembers up to speed). But why keep it all to ourselves?

2016 Headlines Explorer

Let’s be honest, most of us get most of our news from the headlines. There’s not enough time in a day to read all the articles. And even when we make it all the way through an article, we can’t unread the headline. It has worked its subtle magic, coloring all of the words that followed it.

Making Selfie x Selfie

Google Creative Lab asked us to design an Android Experiment using the Cinder open source graphics platform. We set out to use modern mobile graphics technology to expand on our work with real time video filters from a decade ago. In the process of doing so, we somehow opened up a metaphysical portal that lets you travel deep into the hyperspace of your own selfie.

A Design Handbook for the Code-Minded

These days, designers are increasingly expected to know how to code. At Soso, we think it is just as important for coders to understand design. There is a special type of creative magic that happens when we combine forces: we come up with ideas we'd never think of solo, we avoid hiccups in implementation, and we just plain appreciate each other more. A shared basic knowledge of each other's specialties helps us collaborate more effectively throughout the entire process of developing a digital work.
