It looks like Shepard Fairey has found his next cause, and it’s a good one. In a joint collaboration between Fairey and Ernesto Yerena, the Immigration Reform posters were created to promote that exact cause. The idea is that immigrant or not, everyone deserves to be treated like a human being. All I can say [...]

Star Trek was one of the first movies I saw in theaters as a kid so I have to say I’m pretty stoked for JJ Abrams reboot, which comes out Friday, May 8th. With the release of the film rapidly approaching it seems appropriate to discuss these new Star Trek toys created by Funko Toys. [...]

This is one of several video pieces from artist Keith Loutit’s vimeo page. I don’t want to give away his trade secrets because I personally prefer to believe that he just brought thousands of little toys to life and captured the whole thing on film (but if you’re curious, he does explain his process a [...]

Obama’s 1st 100 days
April 29th, 2009 · Comments
by Quincy
The White House just released this pretty fantastic expedition though Barack Obama’s first 100 days as president via 292 photos taken by photographer Pete Souza. They call it “Delivering on Change,” and while the name is kind of blah, I don’t expect much creativity from the White House brass. You can find a few more [...]

Damien Hirst for Harley Davidson

Check out this Harley Davidson bike and helmet designed by Damien Hirst. He’s worked with some famous companies recently, such as Levi’s, but this has to be his coolest collaboration to date. If you would ride a Harley, would you ride a Harley designed by Hirst?

Photographer Miles Aldridge
April 26th, 2009 · Comments
by Quincy
Miles Aldridge is a photographer from the UK who has worked for everyone from GQ to Vanity Fair and the New Yorker. I’ve shied away from doing photography posts, although I think it’s one of the more natural art forms. Aldridge’s work is sexually suggestive, subliminal and sensational but worth taking a look at. This [...]
