Okay, maybe it’s not exactly a fire sale, but Chris Floyd’s experiment with pricing is something I hope will catch on like a house on fire, how about that?
The series is grand, I think (and look how great this particular one sits under my header!), and you don’t have to visit Gracelands to buy in – they are also available online. I shall waste no more time typing details which can be had at the source of my original viewing, Wallpaper.
Ah, sweet internet memories. This site featured in Creativity’s FeedBag gave me double the fun by….BEING FUN…. and reminding me of old favorite Hestekor! Yay.
I enjoyed this comparison of the aesthetics of bike stands around the globe. Montreal is experiencing the predictable Bixi backlash (“they take up so much room”, “eyesore”, etc.), and the images in this piece lend some perspective, I thought.
are bixi stations a blight or beautiful? – Metropolitan News.
And then I thought this would look grand near to Francoise Nielly’s work in the previous post. This one a Booooooom! find. Today is already over quota for beauty, and it’s early yet.
Striking portraits. Found her site through The Cool Hunter, who recommended her video particularly. I concur – watching her work large scale with knives is inspiring. I once made an instructional video about palette knives. That step by step lessony thing seems pointless to me now, looking at this – I reckon anyone’d get a heap more out of just watching talented artists actually work with their knives.
The work featured dates back to 2002. You can see a subtle increase over this period in the use of the dayglo palette, which suits me just fine thanks.

As I laid eyes on these seatbelt hammocks on Lost At E Minor, I acquired another tiny morsel of self knowledge: I love the material and fabrication of seatbelts. I can just feel this hammock, and I am nowhere near Austin.

Now, admittedly, I only paid strict attention to this for the first six and the final three or so minutes, and I hardly ever was watching, just listening. But this is inspired. The is-it-robot-voice-or-is-it-human intrigue increases my enjoyment. And the point, if I understood it as intended, lights up my “money is the root of all evil” button nicely.
I saw this on my very first ever visit to 3 Quarks Daily, which may well become a bona fide webcrush for me.
A friend just sent me this link, and I cannot figure out if this is for reals or what. Not that a glass female urinal is so unlikely. But the c.1750 part, I just, I don’t know, I think of that time as one of complete genital denial for humanity.

I recently suffered through text messages from two friends in the throes of this ecstasy. They did not realize they were each SMSing me, so I don’t think it was overly sadistic.
Anyway, this is a great piece on the set design, which featured two of today’s design fetishes, projections and cardboard. Clever. Read on.
