'China's Increasing Demand for Raw Materials' and 'No Fun Britain'
Barry Falls studied at the Belfast College of Art and now lives and works in Clogher Valley, Northern Ireland. His illustration work is masterfully quirky, smartly colored and cerebral. I also enjoy his keen sense of pattern and texture, creating a weathered/dated look on [...]

The above ‘slightly moving illustration’ was created by Santtu Mustonen from Finland. On his website you’ll find more great examples of his ‘slightly moving illustration’ as well as some really interesting sculptural illustration and collage work. It’s pretty amazing how a slight film flicker effect and some grain adds to the mystic quality of this [...]

These ‘Trench Coat Bags’ created by Ouno Design caught my eye the other day while browsing products on Etsy. It’s such a clever use for such an iconic style from our past. More information below from the Ouno website:

I discovered this mural by artists known as ‘The London Police‘ on woostercollective.com. Apparently ‘The London Police’ painted this mural in the historic Jordaan district in Amsterdam without getting permission from the building owner and the City Council has now threatened to remove it. However, the locals have taken a real liking to it and [...]

TOP 10 by extermitent
I suppose the best word to describe the above video -> “Rubikcubism“. This is a preview teaser video for the artist known as ‘Invader’ and his upcoming solo show called ‘Invader’s TOP 10′ (coming Later This Month To NYC’s Jonathan LeVine Gallery). ‘Invader’ creates images by assembling multiple Rubik’s Cubes together, very [...]

Today’s 11th ‘Midweek Music Bump’ is an excerpt from Pitchfork’s A>D>D series. I don’t have to mention the fact that few bands have influenced so many others like Sonic Youth. Their innovative delivery of fluid electrostatic rock drawl will forever inspire the next-gen bands who bravely attempt to be about half as cool.
“Radios play nothing [...]

I have been following the construction of this Giant Gundam statue in Odaiba, Tokyo via-Pinktentacle, BouncingRedBall and a few other great blogs that cover interesting happenings in Japan.

Clothing brand Uniqlo has created a very stylish calendar that you can embed to your blog, Myspace or any of your other favorite web identities. The highly entertaining tilt-shift footage was taken from different cities and places across Japan. I thought the simple design and basic utility was kind of refreshing in the days when [...]

Apparently someone leaked photos of the attractive new Olympus E-P1 over the weekend (set for official release tomorrow). Intentional or not, I’m pretty excited about these images that I first found on EnGadget.com. The Olympus E-P1 Micro Four Thirds System uses an 18 x 13.5-mm sensor but will decrease camera body size by 50% by [...]

For those lucky enough to be in Bristol, UK from June 15th to August 31st you could drop in to see artist Banksy’s latest gallery installation. His work’s buzz meter has been off the charts for a couple of years now and he’s pretty much entered the phase in his art career in which he [...]

from series -> ‘Cities Within Cities’
Gibran Julian’s work is really enjoyable to view. In his recent photo series ‘Cities Within Cities’ I love the attention paid to integrate the digital illustration into each environment by means of light, shadow and reflection. His works are detailed, full of positive personality and pretty fresh in [...]
