noreply@blogger.com (Selph) — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 15:22:00 +0000

"Peter Gronquist is a Portland-based mixed media artist, whose glitzy gold plated weapons and taxidermy sculptures are both a celebration of decadence, while at the same time, address pressing issues of consumerism and war. For his latest solo show, 'The Evolution will be Fabulous,' Gronquist expands on the taxidermy aspect to his work, incorporating a variety of pollards, accessorized with gold, guns and Gucci." [VIA]

Sharpie Lamborghini

noreply@blogger.com (VZT) — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:54:00 +0000

Back in 2007, 19 year old CEO Brett David of Lamborghini Miami dealership and Miami graffiti artist Jona Cerwinske came together to turn a classic vehicle into something iconic. Brett began by arming Cerwinske with memories of his father, the dealership, and his aspirations for the future inspiring him to generate a mobile masterpiece drawn completely free hand with no preconceived idea of what the car would transform into using only a simple Sharpie marker.

Timur Rimut from Tatarstan, Russia, has given his pet cat a tattoo identical to the one inked on his chest. The naturally hairless sphynx cat was put under anaesthetic to receive the tattoo which was done in the presence of a veterinarian and an anaesthesiologist but has still drawn the ire of animal rights activists in Russia. If that's not enough, he also has a tattoo of his cat on his forearm, with it's tattoo.

Guy Laramee Papercut Books

noreply@blogger.com (Selph) — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 16:36:00 +0000

The erosion of cultures – and of “culture” as a whole - is the theme that runs through the last 25 years of Guy Larmee's artistic practice. Cultures emerge, become obsolete, and are replaced by new ones. With the vanishing of cultures, some people are displaced and destroyed. We are currently told that the paper book is bound to die. The library, as a place, is finished. One might ask so what? Do we really believe that “new technologies” will change anything concerning our existential dilemma, our human condition?

noreply@blogger.com (VZT) — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 22:53:00 +0000

It's definitely on this year!! YES!
From the Red Bull Stratos website yesterday:
"The jump will happen sometime this year. I know you’re thinking, “how am I going to mark it on my calendar with a vague answer like that?” I can tell you the team has made really good progress in a matter of months, but they need to run more tests. We’re launching out of Roswell, NM so the weather will be another determining factor. Believe me, when it’s time to launch we’ll give a big shout out."
