Beethoven 5th Symphony -> Graphic Visualization

I can imagine that Beethoven would have been very interested to see his music visualized through this graphic animation. Each colored bar represents the musical instrument that is being played at any given time of the score. While viewing I was reminded of how brilliantly complex this composition actually is. The graphic itself that is [...]

Little White Lies Issue 26 -> Where The Wild Things Are

‘Little White Lies’ is a magnificently written, curated and illustrated UK based bi-monthly independent movie magazine. To celebrate the recent movie release of ‘Where The Wild Things Are’ they have dedicated the entire issue #26 to the movie. From the few spreads that I have seen the magazine issue has the potential to be as [...]

1958 Urago Bicycle -> Coopertechnica

As I sit here waiting for the rain to blow over and for the pavement to dry a bit so that I can go on a bike ride, I’ve decided to dip into David Cooper’s bicycle collection on coopertechnica.com once again. This time we’re looking at an extremely rare French made 1958 Urago Bicycle crafted [...]

Space Invaders -> Invading the World

I’m not certain how long this site has been around, but for those Space Invaders junkies out there like myself this is a great resource for graffiti, art and just about anything else you can imagine that could be inspired or created from the classic pixel configuration of Space Invaders. The “movement” was originally created [...]

Tron Legacy 2010 -> Trailer (HD)

The above HD Trailer for Tron Legacy (aka Tron 2, Tr2n) is definitely worth a view if you were a fan of the original movie. The movie trailer boasts amazing graphics and a soundtrack produced by Daft Punk (good call on music!). Coming in Disney 3D in 2010. Starring Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wild, [...]

1974 Harry Quinn -> Touring Bicycle

This is yet another one of David Cooper’s classic bicycle gems from way back in 1974 (oh lord, my birth year, and probably holding up better than I am…). This 34 year old road frame is about as classy as can be and would be an amazing commuter bike for some lucky, smartly creased, [...]

Photographer -> Jena Ardell

Jena Ardell is a bi-coastal freelance photographer who has the knack for creating images that appear to have been taken in the 1960s or 70s, when in reality most of her images were taken in the past few years. I find that many of her photos pull me into a kind of distressed technicolor dream-state [...]

Shoe Mashup -> Nike SB Stefan Janoski

Nike will be releasing the the above color/design SB Stephan Jonaski shoe this fall/winter 2009-10 to the public. I’m a big fan of these shoes already, I think it’s because I’m a big fan of the three classic designs that may have inspired it’s design. My Theory is the -> classic Vans Slip-On, classic [...]

1951 R.O. Harrison Bicycle -> New Star Cycles Madison track frame

This amazingly young/fresh looking track bicycle actually dates back to 1951. Originally the 1951 R.O. Harrison Bicycle was designed as a lightweight track bike intended for use on grass, cement or steeply banked tracks. This bicycle also features “like new” period components -> crankset (built by a British company that is no longer in existence [...]

1899 Columbia Model 59 -> Antique Fixie

I came across this this amazing piece of history while browsing one of my favorite time-killing bicycle web destinations www.fixedgeargallery.com. Fixed Gear Gallery is a running picture gallery of fixed gear bikes from all over the world that is updated daily (currently about 9,400 posts). I’ve seen some pretty wild creations. If you have a [...]

Black Mountain -> “Tyrants” on Pitchfork

The track “Tyrants” by Vancouver based band Black Mountain is a couple of years old now but this is the first time I’ve found a quality recording/filming of it on any of the online video sites. Thanks to pitchfork.com/tv I now have a whole concert that I can watch in a series of videos. Ever [...]

The Making of the “Closer” Video -> NIN

NIN: The Making of the “Closer” Video from Nine Inch Nails on Vimeo.

Warning: This video contains some language that may not be acceptable for your workplace.

This video interests me mainly because of director Mark Romanek’s dissection of the creative process and his interpretation of it. I’m not the most loyal of NIN fans, nor did [...]

Fun Or Dumb? Graffiti (1976) -> by Skip Elsheimer

Fun Or Dumb? Graffiti (1976) from Skip Elsheimer on Vimeo.

I had to post this ridiculous retro graffiti video from 1976 called “Fun or Dumb?” (created by Vancon Films). The first mind blowing thing that I noticed when I viewed this video was the Willie Wonka & The Chocolate Factory sounding soundtrack. I was waiting for [...]
