I'm really blown away by these close up photos of insects covered in morning dew. Amateur photographer Miroslaw Swietek travels into the forest in the middle of the night and finds the bugs using a torch and sets up his camera and flash right next to them. Mr. Swietek has only taken up photography two and half years ago. Found at…
Looks like the film will be coming to a theater near you (if you live in New York, Los Angles, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, Philly or Atlanta). For the rest of us we have this official film poster to look at.
The description of how this film was made really caught my interest:
Project London is an independent, no-budget, feature-length, live action movie with vivid, intense, and marrow-vibrating visual effects and animations created with the open source software Blender (and other…Continue
Lately I have been geeking out to Beck's Record Club project on his website. The premise is that Beck gets together with fellow musicians to record a cover version of an album in one day. Previous collaborators have included Feist,… Continue

A while back I posted about the Uganda Skateboard Union and how they are bringing skateboarding to the kids of this war torn nation. Like skateboarders everywhere they want to catch their best tricks on film so we have this video… Continue
Artist Jerm IX and Vegas are freeing up some advertising space to display some of their own work for unsuspecting commuters. Not only that they have put out an open call for you to submit your own work for display.…
This video by Saturday Night Live's Andy Samberg's music group the Lonely Island made my Monday morning a little better. The song features The Stokes Julian Casablancas on the chorus. Now if only everyone will start wearing finger… Continue
The Lost 365 Project is artist Jared Stumpenhorst's goal to create art based on his favorite television show every day for a year. On his blog Stumpenhorst says "It is just a small tribute to what I consider to be the best show to ever be on television. Hopefully a few people might enjoy following along on my journey!!" I really enjoy trying to figure out what scene or episode each of his pieces…
As we slip further and further into the digital age one thing that is being lost is the look of the bands you love. Albums from Pink Floyd to Britney Spears, from Johnny Cash to Slayer all had a style and feel that went along with the music. When I was a kid I would put on a CD and pull out the liner notes and read all the lyrics and check out the 'thanks' list to discover what other bands they were into. Thankfully there are people like…
This British Granny has been dropping the beat in some of Frances hippest night spots. At 69 DJ Mamy Rock may be the world's oldest party DJ but she looks like she is having a hell of a good time so good for… Continue
Although we tend to focus on the latest and greatest in street art, photography and design I think sometimes it's good to take a look back at some of the people that laid the groundwork for amazing design. One of my personal favorites is Blue Note records in house designer Reid Davis. In 1956 the label hired Reid who gave them a look to go along with the cool jazz sounds they were known for. During his time at the label he created hundreds of album… Continue
As we all know 'We Are The World 2' happened and although for a good cause musically it left a lot to be desired. In comes Shane MacGowan of the Pogues with this all star and awesome remake of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' 'I Put A Spell On You'. The song features Nick Cave, Mick Jones (The Clash), Bobby Gillespie (Primal Scream), Glen Matlock (Sex Pistols), Chrissie Hynde, Cait O’Riordon, Paloma Faith, Eliza Doolittle and Johnny Depp on guitar. Best of all, no… Continue
