Sunday, March 14th, 2010The only thing that could make this more epic/awesome/fierce/explosively fantastic is if this oddly mutated shark was actually a bear shark. And if Batman had gills. Just sayin’.

And Here George Washington Defeated A Tiger In The Hurricane Of 1776
Thursday, March 11th, 2010I come from a land saturated with a presence of George Washington. A town where charred and burned walls from the cremations of revolutionary soldiers are still visible in the basements of popular hotels and restaurants. A place where tagging on any recognizable name from the beginning of America will, without a doubt, grant you [...]
Star Surrealists
Friday, March 5th, 2010I’m literally counting down the seconds until the weekend starts. No offense, I love you guys and all, but tomorrow I get to truck on over to the Philadelphia Art Museum for the Picasso exhibit. Hands down, one of my favorite artists. Actually, the last time I saw a magnitude of Picasso’s work was in [...]
Pink Terror
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010Here’s an excellent contender to both the slow-mo dogs and exploding banana face. More importantly, I just really want my friend Daniel Ivan to see this. Because if anyone would understand, it would be him. There you go, Daniel. Enjoy your freakin’ art!
Seriously though, you all should watch it too. Mostly because exploding watermelons, slow [...]
Tokyo/Glow
Monday, March 1st, 2010Wow, I just melted a little. Let’s just say I know something is good when it includes four things that I love and adore: time-lapse, stop motion, Tokyo and bioluminescence. What I would do to be bioluminescent… Maybe it’s time to donate myself to science so they can make me glow like a shrimp or [...]
Know Your Art History, Love Your Art History, Sing Your Art History, Be Your Art History
Sunday, February 28th, 2010I happen to know and love my art history and therefore know and love this video for “70 Million” by Hold Your Horses!. And boys, I must say, I respect your approach to connect with your feminine side.

Banana Face Explosion
Sunday, February 28th, 2010I really wasn’t sure what to write about this video at first, but since it was too bizarre to resist, I figured I’d just post it without any explanation. Then I tried watching it again, in hopes I may be inspired. And I was. Because the nose banana explosion on 1:40 was awesome. Thank you, [...]
I Always Have To Steal My Ring Pop Kisses From You
Thursday, February 11th, 2010Wow, artist Julia Chang really knows the way straight to my heart: Candy. And lots of it. This installation was made in addition to her All For You line, a collaboration with The Standard’s new NYC store opening tomorrow, and it is entirely made of Ring Pops. Oh, delicious Ring Pop. I thought I’d never [...]
A Law And Order Valentine’s Day
Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories. This is their love.
Everyone’s most desired valentine, Brandon Bird, has revisited the Law and Order Valentine theme for your benefit and your [...]
Now THAT’s Art – A Tool To Deceive And Slaughter
Tuesday, January 26th, 2010If you’re ready to start your art collection, you may want to hold off on Caleb Larsen’s “A Tool to Deceive and Slaughter” which is currently available on eBay. Nothing against a black, acrylic cube. It’s very nice, it just will never be yours. Confused? Take a closer look at the “purchase agreement”.

Thank you, Gerard (aka G-Gel).

Museum Trip FAIL
Monday, January 25th, 2010Happy Monday! Not. It ain’t too chirpy ’round these parts today. Sure it’s warmer than it’s been since October, but the sky has made the decision that hosing us down all day long was a fair trade off. Hey now, I did not consent to this! Anyway, whatever yucky day you may be enduring, you [...]
A New Fail Whale
Friday, January 22nd, 2010For all of those who are…
Mitch Canter has designed a new logo for NBC. Or Twitter. Depends on how you look at it, I guess.
Fail cock! NBC, your network is down! Ahhhhhhh!
Buttheads.

The Finches Rock Out
Monday, January 18th, 2010French artist Céleste Boursier-Mougenot creates works by drawing on the rhythms of daily life to produce sound in unexpected ways.
For his installation in The Curve, Boursier-Mougenot creates a walk-though aviary for a flock of zebra finches, furnished with electric guitars and other musical instruments. As the birds go about their routine activities, perching on or [...]
Tree In A Jar… Erm, Jars
Sunday, January 17th, 2010I’m not really sure how one goes about fitting a tree into a collection of jars but I assume it takes a lot of patience. And a good saw. Wow, this is starting to sound like the beginning to a very sinister story… Sorry, blood lusters. We’re only talking about trees here. Anyway, next time [...]
DIY Scanimation!
Monday, January 11th, 2010Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy! Look what we have here. A sweet tutorial, brought to you by Paul of Dude Craft, of how to make your own Scanimation. If this as a card doesn’t knock somone’s socks off, I don’t know what will. Actually, I do. A check for a million dollars. [...]
Paper Mario Bros. 3
Monday, January 11th, 2010A stop motion animation that I created as my final project for my “Art and Alternative Media” class at Boston College. The movie is comprised of over 300 frames, and the only materials that I used were paper, colored pencils, glue, and cardboard. Using graph paper I recreated the pixel data 1:1 with the different [...]
Edible Crayons You Probably Still Won’t Want To Eat
Wednesday, January 6th, 2010I wasn’t a kid who ate things, but I always took comfort knowing there was someone did. I don’t know. We were kids. Aren’t we expected to eat some percentage of the paste before gluing our hands to our foreheads? Anyway, if you really want to get your kid to stop eating their crayons you [...]
Flipbook Parkour
Monday, January 4th, 2010Wow… It’s not like it really takes that much to impress me (I like things, so what?) but hot diggity dog that was so awesome. How lucky is that little guy to run around without the threat of falling flat on his face or twist his inky little ankle. Very nice. Though I will admit, [...]
Scorpion Book Spines… Great.
Monday, December 28th, 2009Hey, I’m all about making art out of books but well, this wasn’t really an image that we needed to introduce to my imagination. You see, I happen to have a rather ridiculous fear of scorpions. It’s kind of silly considering I’ve never lived in an area where they’d be a threat or a neighbor. [...]
