From zero to 100km/h (62 mph) in just 2.9 seconds sounds very nice. XXXL-experiment obviously viral video for the BMW S1000 RR.

Via @DigiDNA, Mimeo and the Kleptopus King is a videogame for iPhone and iPod Touch developped by Shaun Inman, which pays homage to older systems and evolves from 2 bits to 4 bits, then from 4 to 8 bits, to 16 bits etc., as Mimeo gains his resolution back from the evil King.

Perhaps the very first level could look even more minimalistic, with fewer, bigger pixels, à la Space Invaders? Anyway, it’s cute, it’s clever, and it’s pretty.

I want to address my love of pixels. The aesthetics of Mimeo (and Horror Vacui before it) are not born solely from nostalgia. Good pixel art strikes the perfect balance between appreciable craftsmanship and the gestalt. A single pixel out of place, one too few or too many, ruins the illusion. There’s an unmuddied, economy of expression, the thankless result of the limitations of cartridge-based consoles.
