At the start of <span class="caps">WWI </span>anti-aircraft gunners would fire on anything they encountered, enemy or ally, which quickly meant identification was required. The roundel was designed after ground troops found it difficult to distinguish between the Union Flag/ St. George’s Cross and the German Iron Cross. Since then there have been many incarnations to suit a variety of tastes but it is the modern standard, called Type D (Ratio 1:2:3), which has been adopted by mods in popular culture and most notably for fans of cycling, Sir Bradley Wiggins.</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/44759280916http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/44759280916Wed, 06 Mar 2013 19:30:49 -0800never forgetfashion<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/606ec0b88ad97f4c8950b2b83bf82a13/tumblr_mj7qioSS4R1qh2ebeo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/906e0ae0fa9916b873eb3cca93f6fcff/tumblr_mj7qioSS4R1qh2ebeo3_r1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/007206fbe45da71f6bf84511b561175b/tumblr_mj7qioSS4R1qh2ebeo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a href="http://www.stussy.com/nike">Stussy x Nike Shoes</a> In 2000, Stussy partnered with Nike to produce two exciting new colors of the Air Huarache LE shoe in very limited numbers.

Many wives, widows, daughters, and rebels answered the call of duty by engaging in battle, commonly alongside samurai men. They were members of the <em>bushi</em> (samurai) class in feudal Japan and were trained in the use of weapons to protect their household, family, and honor in times of war. They also represented a divergence from the traditional “housewife” role of the Japanese woman. They are sometimes mistakenly referred to as female samurai, although this is an oversimplification. Onna bugeisha were very important people in ancient Japan.</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/43100804999http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/43100804999Thu, 14 Feb 2013 14:12:22 -0800never forgetjapan<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/602cf2f99fae1b3a807ed229a7e3feea/tumblr_mhx2pt1Qke1qh2ebeo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>“Jerry Garcia” print ad for Volkswagen</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/42599048971http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/42599048971Fri, 08 Feb 2013 11:41:53 -0800designnever forget<iframe width="400" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/0YnEm1zaUyE?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://youmightfindyourself.com/post/42592963913/the-grandmaster-is-said-to-be-wong-kar-wais">youmightfindyourself</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>“The Grandmaster” is said to be Wong Kar Wai’s most commercial film. It opened strong in China in January, making more than $50 million at the box office and is the director’s highest-grossing film. After multiple edits, “The Grandmaster” in its current version is screening at 120 minutes, though a four-hour version of the film is said to exist.</p> <p>At the press conference for the film, the 56-year-old Wong said he’d had the idea the film since 1999, after seeing a Super 8 film of Ip Man taken three days before his death in 1972.  In the clip, the 79-year-old is in his pajamas, in his living room with cats and grandchildren watching as he demonstrates his art.  For a moment, with his back to the camera, he stops.  “It’s a very agonizing moment,” said Wong. </p> <p>“Either he’s too weak or he’s too tired to carry on. Or he simply forgot it.  And that’s the moment that really moves me.” (<a href="http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/envelope/moviesnow/la-et-mn-wong-kar-wai-grandmaster-opens-berlin-fest-bought-by-weinstein-20130207,0,5123372.story">via</a>)</p> </blockquote>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/42597809878http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/42597809878Fri, 08 Feb 2013 11:22:58 -0800filmkung-fu<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/f7798b7f4f63847d36d5dd818845d515/tumblr_mhiez5h4EB1qh2ebeo2_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/be212512e6a1ee76e116b9201c72afcd/tumblr_mhiez5h4EB1qh2ebeo1_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d51fe0a8b01ef0fbe32c8e25324c5480/tumblr_mhiez5h4EB1qh2ebeo3_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Braun kettle by Emi Schenkelbach</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/41969183146http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/41969183146Thu, 31 Jan 2013 13:42:41 -0800industrial design<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a54943f2991d915b3c7acc5e61504416/tumblr_mhekg5PXEb1qh2ebeo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/b1617d27c6ffe11fb5257d980f54a9ee/tumblr_mhekg5PXEb1qh2ebeo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Rei Kawakubo for Hermès</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/41801482325http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/41801482325Tue, 29 Jan 2013 11:50:29 -0800jawnzdesign<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/53841069" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>Lucien Clarke & Steph Morgan - City Of Rats</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/38850758819http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/38850758819Tue, 25 Dec 2012 22:23:00 -0800skateboarding<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lg4hkwnOia1qc0hxzo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/21902930487http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/21902930487Mon, 24 Dec 2012 11:27:44 -0800art<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/7b438ac834daaed1d413a37de963f449/tumblr_mfhuunuLvH1qb2c4do1_r1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/38671399212http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/38671399212Sun, 23 Dec 2012 17:04:39 -0800birds<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_md5pere8OI1qh2ebeo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Interior of the Schindler House</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/35259559627http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/35259559627Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:44:51 -0800architectureinteriors<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcukoj3DVD1qf0xk3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Hans Wegner</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/35035581317http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/35035581317Sun, 04 Nov 2012 19:47:10 -0800furnituredesign<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/45878034?title=1&byline=1&portrait=1" width="400" height="224" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/45878034">View from the ISS at Night</a></p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/33724454068http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/33724454068Tue, 16 Oct 2012 13:25:31 -0700space<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mavp6tlft51qzt15co1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Commes des Garcons SHIRT</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/32244090652http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/32244090652Mon, 24 Sep 2012 20:19:09 -0700designfashion<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sUtS52lqL5w?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>The LEGO “Great Ball Contraption”</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/32243938622http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/32243938622Mon, 24 Sep 2012 20:16:41 -0700next level<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mappr2IuwV1qh2ebeo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><em>Miss</em> <em>Spring </em>by Yoshitomo Nara</p>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/31993890437http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/31993890437Fri, 21 Sep 2012 11:23:26 -0700artjapan<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mak4z2e8FO1qh2ebeo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/31804701243http://wavetest.tumblr.com/post/31804701243Tue, 18 Sep 2012 11:06:00 -0700designfashion
