Google’s latest desktop app makes it easier than ever to build 3D games on your Mac. The aptly-named Game Builder doesn’t require you to write a single line of code — and it’s completely free to use.
Apple is inviting children aged between eight and 12 to attend this year’s summer camp.
Its sessions give kids the chance to learn art, coding, design, music, and moviemaking. They’re all free, but you’ll need to register for a place in the U.S., Canada, or Mexico starting June 17.
Apple taught Elvin Hu new languages.
Born in China, Hu refined his English by watching Apple keynote events. He also came to understand the visual language of Apple’s product photography.
The latter inspired Hu, a design student at The Cooper Union in New York City, to create a series of product shots showing broken and well-worn Apple gadgets in hands that share similar gouges and scratches.
Apple’s newest store is more of a step back in time than the usual step into an all-glass box.
The tech giant proudly gave a sneak peek into its Washington D.C. outlet, a former Carnegie Library where Ive and Beaux-Arts styles blend for a refreshing feel to the Apple retail experience.
Of course, there’s a staircase.

Vincent Van Gogh might have been kinder to his ear if only AirPods were around when he was alive and painting.

An apparent “iPad mini 5” case corroborates rumors that this year’s much-anticipated refresh won’t bring a spectacular new design to Apple’s smallest tablet.
The case also dashes hopes that the new device will pick up an LED camera flash, a Smart Connector, and four stereo speakers. But is it genuine?
A company has to be nimble enough to change with the times. It can turnover leadership, recreate its work culture and overhaul its line of products. Just don’t mess with a brand’s logo.
But what if an icon like the Apple logo was reimagined with another iconic style?
Nizo is a new take on video apps. It manages to blend shooting and editing together, so you can edit your movies on the fly as you capture them.
The interface to do this is — like much good design — so clean and obvious that you wonder why it wasn’t done before. Let’s take a look.
Apple has debuted a new look for its Certified Refurbished Online Store, giving it bigger pictures and easier navigation options.
Previously, Apple’s Certified Refurbished was nothing special, potentially since Apple was hoping that you would skip over it and buy the new, full-priced items. Now it’s changed it mind — with a new design that places a bigger focus on this part of Apple’s retail business.
