Dope Minimalist Music Video Posters

BJones — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 20:37:43 +0000

On the list of some of the coolest shit I’ve seen in a while. A lot of these minimalist interpretations of movies and books have been popping up quite a bit in the last year, but this is the first I’ve seen done for iconic music videos by Federico Mancosu.

Great part about these posters is the credit given to the director for making these videos stand out in our minds, its not just the musician(s) creating the indelible mark these videos have left on our minds.

Featuring Michael Jackson’s Thriller, Beastie Boys’ Sabotage, and Beck’s Devil’s Haircut to name a few. You can snag these sweet prints at ImageKind.com

Selleck Waterfall Sandwich?

St8us — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 19:04:55 +0000

There are tons of internet memes popping up like hot cakes, if this were the market it would be marked by wild rises and falls as the newest memes take over the for the old and then spinoffs take over for those.

Selleck Waterfall Sandwich has been one of my recent favorites for a while now, the simplicity allows a myriad of configurations for the 3 simple ingredients: Tom Selleck photoshop + Waterfall background + sandwich du jour:

Diego Diaz

St8us — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 00:02:56 +0000

Sitting firmly at the intersection of fashion and design lies Diego Diaz. Having come across his work, below I was struck by the boldness of the work and immediately Levi Van Veluw’s work came to mind. As Diego uses the body and particularly the head as his canvas to explore shape, texture, and identity.

Creative Loafing & Atlanta Stay Winning

BJones — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 00:47:54 +0000

I spent my formative years in Atlanta, thus Creative Loafing was required reading, f0r those that don’t know, think of it as the Atlanta equivalent to LA Weekly, but better. So before you made your way down to Little 5, The Tabernacle, or The Underground, you knew what was going down.

Long story short I often hit them and Maurice Garland regularly to stay up on the latest happenings in the city thats got my heart. Every year they put together an excellent issue dedicated solely to the music emanating from the city. The latest was no doubt one of the magazine’s strongest. Atlanta has been bubbling over with new talent recently that are now gaining public awareness and Creative Loafing did a great job of bringing it all together in this year’s edition.

Dropping Links to all the choice content:

The Making of Outkast’s Aquemini

Black Lips’ Jared Swilley with Waka Flocka Flame

Constellations’ Elijah Jones with Dreamer of Hollyweerd

Steve Martin’s Leaked Rider is Awesome

BJones — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 19:35:13 +0000

I’ve tried in the past to explain to my sister who and what the comedic genius Steve Martin is; its fallen on deaf ears. Steve Martin’s “leaked” banjo performance appearance rider showed up on Steve’s official website Thursday.

Highlights

Wardrobe – “Nothing constricting or scratchy, except for Steve’s thong.”

Buffet – “Six-packs of any canned beverage, for Steve to compare his abs to.”

Barricades – “Venue must provide free-standing barricades to protect Artists form rushing buffet.”

Miscellany – “Booklet entitled ‘How to Make Money From the Banjo’. NOTE: Booklet muyst be more than two pages long.”

Its pure gold:

25,000 Barrels of Oil Looks Like This

BJones — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 05:09:52 +0000

This is a visualization of 25,000 barrels of oil looks like. Remember 25,000 comes form the initial estimate that was given to oil spilling PER DAY. It appears to be closer to 50,000.

This was made using the powerful Unreal engine that powers many video games today.
